As the holiday season commences with Thanksgiving this week, I want to take this opportunity to reflect and share everything that I am so lucky and thankful for this year. This is truly the time to appreciate the life you have and all of the blessings that you may overlook normally such as your health, your family, the fact that you’re employed and the friendships that you have. We have a tendency to think that “the grass is always greener” when realistically every person has their own personal battles that they fight that we don’t know about.

I have been waiting so many years to be able to say that I landed my first acting gig, and now I finally can! Acting has always been such a dream of mine and I am so thankful that I finally got this amazing opportunity. Of course this opportunity came after a ton of hard work, but I am so thrilled that my hard work paid off!

Today I had my first private acting lesson with the esteemed Susan Batson of Susan Batson Studios and all I can say is WOW! I was absolutely blown away by her ability to have such accurate insight into who I am and her ability to so seamlessly bring out emotions that were so deep within me that I didn’t even know they existed. She is truly a phenomenon that I am so lucky to have the opportunity to work with.
