Mckynleigh "Miki" Abraham is a professional stage actor and self-esteem coach. Most recently seen in the 1st National Tour of Once On This Island, she has toured the country with 2 national tours, performed internationally on cruise lines, spent 3 months in L.A. on a reality television show, danced on hot concrete 6 times a day at a theme park, and been in 3 productions put on by an Amish regional theatre...if you can name it, she's done it.  In 2017 she did a contract and her supervisor told her that was overweight. They threatened her job security if she didn't "lose the weight". She didn't have the tools to deal with this. She wanted to hide away and make herself smaller, that was the only thing that made sense. This taught her that she needed to learn how to navigate through this tough industry that we love to hate to love. In 2018 she became an ICF accredited certified life coach and over the past year, she has helped numerous humans navigate that tricky thing called life with empathy, accountability, and mental health education.Follow Miki on Social Media:@citscoachingFollow The Actor's Vow on Social Media: @theactorsvow
