10 simple steps to being a sexy vixen

  1. You know when you exit something at the top of its game?
  2. Cause you don’t want to exit any less than top?
  3. And it’s right and perfect and you’re so glad you did?
  4. And then two years later, you’re like, “I still haven’t been Mimi from RENT on stage. WTF?!”
  5. And since you can’t sing, dance, or act, you’re realistic with yourself that Mimi will never happen via traditional routes?
  6. And thusly decide to manifest your dream your own damn self?
  7. Even if that means going backwards and undoing what you’ve done?
  8. Which some may view as failure or a misstep?

As evidenced by the return of what results when you swirl the best parts of childhood, summer camp, and college with courageous, open, yes’y people, the adult recital Fear Experiment℠ (FE). This time, improv, storytelling, and for the first time, Broadway. Cause, Mimi. Me. Dream. And other small stuff like helping adults find community, confidence, laughter.

She’s especially adept at working with folks who despise having their photo taken. And being an overall lovely, kind-spirited, big hearted human.

To manifesting your dream despite all the reasons why your dream is silly, a step backwards, unmanifestable. Y’all, if this can happen —
