Episode Highlights:  Finding the gifts in disappointment Learning that "you are not what you do" Broadway stories from Rebecca, The Little Mermaid, Phantom, & Hello, Dolly! Uncovering our true purpose  Honoring our deep desires Building community and nurturing Soul Becoming a Leading Lady Sierra's mantra: You Are Enough! In this episode, Analisa re-airs her first interview with Broadway star and soulful human Sierra Boggess!  Join them in the Rosalie dressing room at School of Rock for a fun and vulnerable conversation about "doing the work" and finding our true purpose in what we do—and bringing that alignment into every aspect of our lives.  Sierra and Analisa open up about their shared experience with the cancellation of Broadway's Rebecca, and discuss how they have learned to embrace frequent disappointment in this business and not "go into the dark."  How can we get to the bottom of what really motivates us to do what we do?  How do we trust, in the low moments, that there is something else there for us?  How do we build support networks and handle jealousy and competition, especially in the age of social media?  Analisa and Sierra share many beautiful stories and wonderful resources as they talk "getting clear on the core of what we're doing"—all in pursuit of becoming expansive human beings!
