Laura Heywood: Identifying Our Super Power, Mission Statements & Starting Before We are Ready

LAURA HEYWOOD is a professional enthusiast: a multi-faceted host, consultant, performer, pundit, and writer widely recognized for her commitment to positivity. Through her social media persona @BroadwayGirlNYC, Laura has become “Broadway’s most influential fan” (CBS This Morning) and "the most vocal and visible supporter in the business” (Forbes). In 2018 she worked as the in-house Broadway expert and Video Package Supervisor on the 72nd annual Tony Awards. She regularly acts as a celebrity interviewer for outlets including Build Series NYC and CBS New York, and moderates talkbacks and hosts special events on Broadway stages. She now has her own radio show, as well as podcast, called “Laura Heywood interviews” where she interviews included Tony Award winners, TV stars, fitness experts and activists. In this episode, we dive into: ● How Laura discovered her life-long quirks have actually been her superpowers in disguise. ● Laura’s synchronistic and “zig-zag” journey from radio host to a popular anonymous alter ego, to professional Broadway fandom. ● How writing our personal mission statement can set the stage for a dream job. ● Why primarily focusing on tangible results is deadly to our creativity, joy and even progress. ● Why it is CRUCIAL to start before you are ready (and without a ton of pressure) ● How satisfaction is directly correlated to the “muscle” we put into our dreams. ● What authenticity is REALLY about and how it has been branded incorrectly as a sales technique. ● How Laura has spread joy even in the midst of the lows of debilitating clinical depression. ● The two pieces of advice Laura would give to someone trying to create a career out of their joyful obsessions.
