Actor, producer, coach, union organizer and mom to a 13-year old boy, Hilary Ward shares with Katie and Melanie her beautiful perspective on life and work. She speaks about acknowledging the “almosts” and the failures as an actor and not just the wins, how her career doesn’t define her worth, and how theatre can be relevant to the community it takes place in. Hilary explains why Primary Trust is the play of the moment and how she negotiated with her family to leave town not once but twice to perform in it.Hilary has built a thriving career in LA and she speaks to the ups and downs of that including what it was like to get dumped by her agent, how the business is determined to teach her that she’s not in control and how running a theatre company is what actually keeps her sane.As a military wife with a husband who spent time on active duty overseas, Hilary had plenty of experience with uncertainty. She shares how she cares for and centers herself, what’s important to her as a mother, and how she sorted out who she is rather than who the business expected her to be. More on Hilary:https://www.hilarywardofficial.com@imhilarywardhttps://www.chalkrep.comhttps://www.sagaftra.orghttps://www.sagaftra.org/los-angeles/local-programs/los-angeles-conservatoryhttps://theatre.ucsd.edu/academics/graduate/acting-mfa.htmlhttps://twhartford.orghttps://www.concordtheatricals.com/p/96908/primary-trusthttps://www.penguinrandomhouseretail.com/book/?isbn=9780143129257
