Great artists aren't just talented — they're problem solvers, investigators, and lifelong students.In this conversation, I sit down with Sheri Sanders, who has spent 20+ years as an actor, educator (Rock The Audition / Vocal & Performance Coach) and is currently earning her Master's in Dramaturgy across the pond in Leeds, England. Together, we go on a powerful deep-dive into what it really takes to grow as an artist in today's rapidly shifting industry.We explore what it means to make intentional choices, build community, stay curious, and understand the why behind the work — not just the notes, but the story, the purpose, and the deeper human truth that brings material to life.Sheri also shares wisdom on how the business has evolved over the decades, what today's industry demands, and how performers can stay grounded, empowered, and purposeful as they navigate their own creative journey.
In today's episode, Cindra and Lisa talk about the timeless truth of high performance: You don't build confidence by eliminating fear. You build confidence by moving with it. Inspired by Dr. Susan Jeffers' classic book Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway (1987), this conversation explores why fear shows up, how it impacts performance, and how the world's best learn to step toward what scares them instead of stepping back. What We Talk About in This Episode 1. Why Fear Is Universal — and Why This Topic Matters Fear is the #1 barrier to our potential. And as Dr. Susan Jeffers taught decades ago, fear never fully goes away. Instead, confidence grows when we act in spite of it. Courage isn't about being fearless—it's about moving forward with fear in hand. 2. A Story About Fear on the Court Cindra shares the story of a college volleyball player moments before a championship match—shaking hands, tight stomach, racing thoughts. She feared missing a serve. She feared letting her team down. And she walked onto the court anyway. That act of courage allowed her to deliver one of the best serves of her season. The lesson: fear doesn't disqualify you. It prepares you. 3. How Coaching Helps You Work Through Fear Every coaching client—executives, athletes, leaders—hits a wall of fear when they stretch themselves. Coaching helps you name the fear, normalize it, and learn tools to navigate it so you can keep moving toward who you're meant to become. 4. Where Your Mind Goes When You're Afraid Fear doesn't live in the present. It lives in the future. Fear is your mind projecting a worst-case scenario, pulling you out of the moment. Research shows that when we anticipate threats, our working memory, decision-making, and performance all take a hit. Your best performance? It always happens in the present moment. 5. Why Embracing Fear Is Important for Growth The things you fear often reveal the places you're meant to grow. And research backs this: studies from Harvard Business School show that when people reframe anxiety as excitement, they perform significantly better—whether in public speaking, singing, or even difficult math tasks. The goal isn't to eliminate fear. It's to choose courage anyway. 6. The Difference Between Fear and Courage Fear is a feeling. Courage is an action. You can't experience courage without fear—fear is the doorway. When Cindra wrote her first book, she was terrified no one would read it. But she knew she was supposed to write it. So she moved toward what scared her. That's courage. Today's Big Takeaway: The world's best don't wait to feel fearless. They feel the fear—and do it anyway. Fear becomes a signal that they're doing something meaningful and important. This Week's Power Phrase: "I lean into the fear — and let courage lead."

If you've ever felt burnt out, confused about your next step, or pressure to be "everything to everyone," this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air. In this conversation, I sat down with Tianna Soto. Tianna is a keynote speaker and mental health educator known for making wellness feel human, hopeful, and actionable. With a Master's in psychology from Columbia, experience as a Women's Health journalist, and certifications in yoga, reiki, and somatic anxiety coaching, she bridges science and soul to help people manage stress and rebuild resilience. During our conversation we explore what it really means to live in alignment with your strengths, navigate burnout with compassion, and allow your life path to unfold in nonlinear and unexpected ways. We talk about the power of positive psychology, how to shift out of "fixing" yourself and into understanding yourself, and why embracing your multi-passionate nature might be the exact thing that unlocks more joy, confidence, and clarity. Tianna also opens up about her winding career path — from psychology to media to becoming a full-time speaker — and how following sparks of curiosity (even when they didn't make logical sense at the time) led her exactly where she's meant to be. What We Talk About How positive psychology differs from toxic positivity Why focusing on strengths builds confidence and resilience Navigating a nonlinear career path with trust instead of fear The mindset shift from FOMO → JOMO (joy of missing out) Stress cycles, burnout, and how the body signals overwhelm The vagus nerve connection and what to know about stress physiology How to evaluate your current "season" of life — lifestyle, energy, values What it really means to live well (hint: it's simpler than you think) Connect with Tianna: Visit Tianna website Follow Tianna on Instagram Connect with me: Connect with me on Instagram ShopMy - What I'm Loving Lately Email: Hailey@hailey-miller.com

In this episode of Parent Like a Psychologist, Leanne is joined by Adelle Sushames—a late-diagnosed AuDHD clinical psychologist, creator of the NDME and Spoon Theory card decks, and the voice behind Neurodivergent Ally. Together, they explore how neurodivergent children (and adults) can better understand their needs, communicate them, and feel empowered rather than pathologized. Adelle shares how her card decks help shift the language around autism and ADHD from deficits to preferences, strengths, identity, and lived experience. The conversation dives deep into Spoon Theory, a framework for understanding fluctuating energy levels, why children can appear “fine at school but melt down at home,” and how families and educators can use this language to support kids with compassion instead of pressure. This episode is warm, insightful, validating—and full of practical tools for supporting neurodivergent children with space and grace. What We Talk About in This Episode Why traditional clinical descriptions of autism and ADHD often don't reflect lived experience The purpose and philosophy behind the NDME identity-affirming cards How Spoon Theory helps explain fluctuating capacity and energy levels throughout the day Why some children can cope at school but collapse emotionally at home Understanding school-based burnout and school can't The emotional experience of being neurodivergent in a world not designed for your brain How cards can open gentle, low-pressure conversations between parents and kids The importance of self-compassion for both children and parents The idea of parenting neurodivergent kids with space + grace, rather than endless demands Guest Bio – Adelle Sushames (Neurodivergent Ally) Adelle Sushames is a late-diagnosed AuDHD Clinical Psychologist and the creator of several neurodiversity-affirming card decks designed to help autistic and ADHD individuals better understand themselves and communicate their needs.
