Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

Have you ever caught yourself qualifying your biggest dreams with hesitant language? "Maybe we'd be celebrating... I mean, for me..." These verbal hedges reveal how we protect ourselves from fully embracing what we truly want.

This transformative conversation explores what happens when we shift into "the land of possibility" – not a magical place where every dream comes true, but a mindset where we give ourselves permission to move wholeheartedly toward what matters most. When discussing a Broadway debut dream, we uncover how quickly we downplay our deepest desires, afraid to claim them fully. But what if the result became "the cherry on top" rather than the sole measure of success?

The most powerful insight emerges around the mirror test: "At the end of the day, when you look in the mirror, what would make you feel best?" This simple question cuts through external expectations, bringing you back to what truly matters to you. No decision is inherently right or wrong – only right or wrong for you. Understanding your personal "why" beyond external validation creates sustainable motivation that carries you through challenges.

Whether you're pursuing a Broadway career or any meaningful goal, remember: "It's you that is going to take you there, no one else." There will be gatekeepers and obstacles, but ultimately, your journey is yours alone. What reflection would make you feel best when you look in the mirror tonight? Share your thoughts and join our conversation about moving beyond binary thinking into the rich landscape of possibility where your authentic path awaits.
