🦷Emma Supica as Wisdom Tooth🦷Straight from the mouth of the Parthenon’s Athena, Wisdom is one-third of Fairy Floss’s delightfully opinionated Greek chorus of teeth who spin the tale of Johnny, Willy, and the invention of cotton candy. True to her name, Wisdom is determined to tell this story with honestly and historic accuracy… much to the chagrin of the hopelessly romantic Sweet Tooth. Emma is an improviser, performer, and theater maker based in Nashville, TN. She’s the creator and director of “East Nashville Facebook Page: The Musical” which delights hundreds of audience members each August, and was proud to direct the mostly improvised, autobiographical sketch musical Seth Nathan Green Performs a One Person Show. She is a recurring cast member in Cherry Bomb: An Improvised Musical, and various Kindling Arts Festival performances including as Gonzo in the Muppet Christmas Special. Supica’s creative work often centers on playfulness, personal narrative, and discovery. She is the founding director of Unscripted, a nonprofit organization which uses improv to heal, empower, and connect the community. Don’t miss Emma in Fairy Floss, July 24th and 25th at @kindlingartsfest! by @emmasupica

My greatest joy. I spend my time on earth doing a LOT. But being their mom is always it. The thing that seemed complicated at first has become the simplest truth. It’s a foundational way of being, of choosing, of returning. Nothing has taught me more. I am always their mom. And I’m so grateful. by @emmasupica

If there’s anything you need to know about airing grievances, it’s that if you don’t, it will end catastrophically. We were delighted to have on some featured players from the @kindlingartsfest Muppet Christmas Carol Holiday special. Listen to the full Festivus edition of This Is Nashville by going to wpln.org or watch the video on our YouTube page (@wpln).

If you’ve ever tried to think your way out of anxiety (hi, it’s me 🙋‍♀️), this clip will land.Emma Supica reminded me that in improv—and in life—gripping for control doesn’t keep us safe, it keeps us stuck. Presence is the only thing that “works.” When we soften the grip, the scene can actually unfold.Try this today:Name it (“I’m gripping”), soften one thing (exhale, unclench jaw), then add a gentle “yes, and…” to whatever is here.If this resonates, send it to the friend who overthinks because they care. 💛🎙 Full episode with Emma is on It’s Both — Personal growth for real-life transitions.

Improv is a metaphor for life & what if the “wrong turn” is the gift? 🎭In life (& improv), you can be delighted when the plan works or when the unexpected shows up. Control feels safe—but presence creates discovery. When we stop trying to do it “right,” we actually see what’s here.This clip with @emmasupica from @unscriptedimprov reminds me: say yes/and, listen, don’t bail on yourself (or each other), and let surprises become data—not indictments.If this helped reframe something for you, save it for later and share with a friend who’s navigating the messy middle. 💛→ Tell me one “unexpected” that turned into a gift for you.Watch the full episode now, link in bio by @emmasupica

Do you ever feel stuck between wanting control and craving freedom? ⚖️This week on it’s both, we explore the bothness of anxiety and improv—how saying yes, and can lower the volume on worry without pretending it isn’t there.My guest is Emma Supica—educator, improviser, and founding ED of Unscripted—who turns mistakes into motion and teaches teams (from Amazon to the U.S. Army) how to celebrate failure and communicate with authenticity.We get into:• Improv for anxiety (why “mistakes are gifts”)• Nervous system flexibility + presence in the moment• Reframing failure as data• A simple listening exercise you can use todayListen now—link in bio.Tag a friend who needs permission to play again. 💛Follow @unscriptedimprov and learn more at unscriptedimprov.org by @emmasupica
