Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

There’s nothing I enjoy more than holding space for creative people and having deep conversations with really awesome humans. This podcast has allowed me to enjoy doing just that, and the metrics tell me you are out there listening. I am so unbelievably grateful for that, but it can get lonely over here with just me and my microphone so if you are enjoying the podcast, I just created a page where you can show your support by clicking on the link in the show notes of every episode or if you are listening on Buzzsprout just clicking the heart icon to  “buy me a coffee” or even just leave a message (or both!) and let me know. A little caffeine goes a long way LOL 💜🙏😃 🤪☕️

I could not be more grateful for my listeners and it's for you that I continue to curate these meaningful conversations. Stay safe and healthy everyone and remember to live in the moment.

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

Have you ever considered how many pages are left unturned in your life? How many things you’ve thought about but never tried. 

We are so much closer to wonder and transformation than we know. But if these possibilities continue to remain in our blindspot, as time inevitably passes, they may someday only appear in our rearview mirror.

14 Apr 2022Anna Tierney: Embracing Her Rougher Edges00:47:24

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

Lisa and actress Anna Tierney go deep in this episode about her journey as an actor and her desire to lean in to all of the parts that make her who she is and break through the limitations both external and internal beliefs of "how" actors are supposed to present themselves:

"The example in the industry, up until very recently was, you know, you want to look like this kind of homogenous of gravy of bland things, you know, or perfection or whatever that is. But I'm glad that's changing now, and I'm embracing all those rougher edges."

Highlights include her affectionate recollection of her childhood  and the influence of her well known actor father Malcolm Tierney:

"My dad was such a charming, funny, dedicated, personable man, you know, he was one of those people that it was just a dream to be around he could hold court in a room and, and you'd be kind of hanging off every word. "

And her fear that she wouldn't be good enough to get into drama school:

"I was applying for drama schools when I was at university, and so went straight to drama school. And it wasn't until I got there that I realized that that was where I was supposed to be. And I'd kind of I think been putting it off to an extent. I was maybe a bit afraid of going to drama school - would I be good enough to go there?"

Anna's bio:

Anna Tierney is a Drama Centre London graduate; her training was supported through many awards and the support of actors including Jeremy Irons, Ian McKellen, and Ian McShane.

 Upon graduation she landed a role in BBC's long running series Doctors, and performed (AT or WITH) The Globe, The National, The Royal Shakespeare Company.  In North America Anna performed at the Guthrie and Royal Alexandra Theatre with frequent collaborators Out of Joint Theatre in Our Country's Good.   

Film and television credits include the animated series Summer Lane Drive, the feature PSYCHO GOREMAN that premiered at SXSW and the limited Channel 4 series

A limiting belief is just that. A belief that you once had that no longer serves you and is currently limiting your potential. They aren’t by nature evil or nefarious. They are hardwired to keep you safe. But even with the best of intentions if gone unchecked, they can take us down.

03 Aug 2022Lisa Hopkins: FIRST THOUGHTS, OVERWHELM & CRYING OVER SPILT MILK00:06:52

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

FIRST THOUGHTS, OVERWHELM & CRYING OVER SPILT MILK

As the mind starts to wake up, that very same space begins to fill with that first thought - and that first thought leads to the next action you take - and the subsequent thoughts that you generate about those thoughts themselves; scaling them, rating them, evaluating them, fighting them, suppressing them...and so it goes. The brain has been aroused and, like a bottle of milk that’s been tipped over, the thoughts come rushing in, spilling over, uncontained - before you’ve even set your feet on the floor. 

Once again, you are back in the race, unwarmed up, already behind and still needing to clean up the mess. Sound familiar?

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

Have you ever found yourself somewhere and had the realization that nobody you know in the world has any idea of where you are? It’s not a lost feeling, but rather a thrilling sensation, a kind of freedom. Completely autonomous. Unburdened by where you’ve been, or to where you are going, completely untethered to the expectations of what it’s supposed to be. These kinds of moments cannot be planned. They aren’t on any agenda or itinerary and like gateways or portals that can transport you to places that you never imagined you would go when you woke up that morning.

06 Oct 2022Lisa Hopkins: How Stepping Away From Your Work Makes You More Productive00:06:21

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

As artists, we thrive when we are working hard and flounder when we are hardly working.

We tend to put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be constantly innovating and creating or learning something new, to always be “productive” or “producing work” -and when we aren’t, we feel somehow “less than” or not up to par.

But until we understand what our personal  “core processing unit “ consists of, we won’t be able to learn what these signals mean. Maybe the disconnect has something to do with a value that is being challenged or an underlying fear or limiting belief that needs to be addressed.

17 Mar 2023MOIPEI: Humility, Belonging & Grace00:46:35

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

Lisa speaks with  Maggy, Marta and Mary of The MOIPEI Triplets about their journey from Nairobi, Kenya where they have been singing together since their musical journey began as children with their sister Serafina. At the age of 12,  they were appointed Kenya’s first ever UNICEF Child Ambassadors championing girl child empowerment, education, and alternative rites of passage. Their notability grew in the Kenyan musical scene, and they were appointed as the Kenyan Musical Ambassadors and were awarded the Head of State Commendation (HSC), by the President of Kenya, in recognition of their outstanding contribution to the Music Industry and the Nation. 

Now, 29 years old and living in the US, the adult sisters are taking NYC by storm. Moipei made their New York City debut at the Mabel Mercer Gala at Jazz at Lincoln Center Rose Hall in October 2021. The following week they made their debut at the internationally renowned Birdland Theater. And are preparing for their Kennedy Center debut in April. 

Critics are saying that  “They are beyond reproach - every word, every note, every harmony all have perfect  placement and flawless execution.”  

“Their enchantment, either as singers or as people will bewitch all who see and hear them.”

25 Jul 2023Debunking Life Hacks: Embracing Individuality through the Mosaic of Life00:07:12

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

Are life hacks really the secret to personal growth and mindfulness? Weren't you wondering why some of these so-called science-backed tips don't work for you? Join me, Lisa Hopkins, as I dismiss the idea of one-size-fits-all life hacks and instead, champion the beauty of personal evolution through diverse life experiences.

Drawing wisdom from the metaphor of a mosaic, we’ll explore how life is a collection of unique pieces that form the stunning tapestry of our existence. Using my cherished mosaic candle holder as an emblem, I'll guide you towards understanding that life is not a puzzle to solve but a series of experiences to live. The key to personal growth is not in finding shortcuts but in surrendering to the flow of life, appreciating the ebb and flow, and assembling your unique experiences into a beautiful mosaic. Listen in as we embrace the power of individuality, acknowledging that we're all different and that it's perfectly okay. Let's together debunk the myth of the magical elixir of life and learn to create change through self-awareness and mindfulness.

Carmel also welcomes us into her new venture, Places Please Travel for Theater Lovers, a travel business that offers her a sense of autonomy rarely found in the world of Broadway.

In the final act of our chat, Carmel hints towards the future while pausing to appreciate the present. She reflects on her journey so far, her classical training, and the exhilaration of creating her own artistic blueprint. Balancing personal life with a demanding career, her story offers a heartfelt perspective on embracing challenges and finding your rhythm in life.

Sammi Cannold is a theater, film, and television director who is one of Forbes Magazine's 30 Under 30 in Hollywood & Entertainment, class of 2019, and will make her Broadway debut this fall as director of How to Dance in Ohio at the Belasco Theater.

We delve into her creative process, discussing the significance of decisions made during that process and the necessity of staying true to the essence of a story - something Sammi excels at.

We also tackle the more serious topics of age, privilege, and access in the industry, discussing the perception of age and how Sammi's approach has evolved with time. She reveals her ambition to direct bigger ceremonies, and the importance of work and play in her life. As we wrap up the conversation, she shares her joy at getting married next summer and leaves us contemplating the idea of making an impact each and every day.

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

Ever found yourself caught in the magic and melancholy of autumn? Feel like you have a symphony of emotions playing within you as the seasons change? As we navigate through these mixed feelings that come with the arrival of fall, we'll explore the beauty within this transition, the wistful feelings as we bid goodbye to summer, and how to find a balance between embracing the past and welcoming the present. 

Have you ever wondered why time during summer seems paradoxical - both slow and fast? Why does the end of warm days bring a touch of sorrow, and why is this sorrow beautifully poetic? Let's reflect together on the vibrant colors of fall and the opportunities they present, the nostalgia of summer, and how we can choose to revel in the heartwarming memories it left behind. Remember, you're not alone in feeling this way, and it's okay to feel all the feels. Let's live in the moment, embrace the change, and appreciate each season for the unique beauty it brings. So tune in, breathe the fresh, crisp air, and remember to stay safe and healthy, everyone!

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

How often can someone say they traded military precision for the unpredictability of the arts? Meet Leanna Concepcion, a woman whose journey from military school to Broadway is as fascinating as it is inspiring. An unexpected transition, Leanna shares how her skills from military school - discipline, tactfulness, leadership - became her arsenal in the world of theater. She reveals the trials of navigating college auditions, the unwavering support of her mother and the struggle to be understood beyond her outward enthusiasm.

A former dancer, Leanna shares how her regimented training sculpted not just her dance routine but her life. She talks about the importance of loyalty to oneself, setting boundaries, trusting one's instincts and, most of all, living in the present. As our conversation deepens, she opens up about her journey of self-discovery, learning to shift perspective instead of trying to fix everything. We also explore the beauty of our industry and how the connections we make stay with us throughout our journey.

Listen in as Leanna takes us through her highs and lows, her dreams and fears, and her never-ending quest to be true to herself. She shares what makes her tick, what makes her laugh, and what inspires her. We also get a glimpse of Leanna's energetic choices, her survival stories, and her future dreams. As we wrap up, we reflect on the top three things that have happened to her today and what she is looking forward to in the future. This is a conversation not to be missed, an exploration of self, artistry and the beauty of imperfection."

Fellow humans, have you ever found yourself caught up in the whirlwind of holiday emotions, unsure how to navigate through them? Well, I did too.

So, tune in for a heartening episode that celebrates the beauty of now and offers an alternative perspective on how to experience the holidays.

By realigning our motivations with our values, we create a foundation for new beliefs that truly resonate with our present selves and future aspirations. Join me, your host, as we cast a light on the internal narratives we've been carrying and empower ourselves with the tools to write a new chapter—a narrative rooted in who we are and who we're becoming.

08 Jan 2024Dame Evelyn Glennie: The Art of Listening01:05:37

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!

In the world of sound and silence, few have navigated the intricacies of deep listening as profoundly as Dame Evelyn Glennie. Our latest podcast episode unveils the remarkable journey of this virtuoso percussionist, whose life story is a symphony of resilience, innovation, and unwavering curiosity. From the prestigious halls of Robert Gordon University to the imaginative minds of children, Glennie's experiences transcend the boundaries of music, inviting us to consider the full spectrum of listening.

Evelyn Glennie's tale begins in the pastoral landscapes of Scotland, where a young musician, undeterred by her hearing impairment, confronted the classical music industry's rigid perceptions. Her audacity to challenge a rejection from the Royal Academy of Music not only paved her path to success but also revolutionized the admission process for artists with disabilities. The episode delves into the ethos of her secondary school that nurtured each child's unique potential, revealing how early educational environments can be instrumental in shaping one's future.

As the narrative unfolds, Glennie's philosophy of living in the moment becomes the central theme. She articulates the importance of being present, whether it's during a solo performance or a fleeting interaction. The discussion probes into the essence of practice, transforming the mundane into moments of potential and creativity.
