Hey divas, you’ll never believe it but turns out you can do crazy things when you take the plunge to believe in yourself.

I still don’t know how I did it but after two years away from comedy and theater I dived head first back in and brought my own show and 12 cast members to the Edinburgh Fringe. I am so proud of myself. I wrote/directed/produced this show and although it wasn’t an easy or perfect road to get there I learned SO much. I fucking love this cast and theater and art!!!! and fighting your own self doubts in an effort to make space for your voice is always always always worth it.

Anyways, special thanks to @marferg who has been the most beautiful collaborator and friend and has saved my sanity so many times in this process. My sister @davin.raquel for being the best sister a girl could ask for in every way. @michael_peez for answering the phone whenever I needed to blab my anxious thoughts and @knottysam for pushing me when I wanted to give up over and over again❤️

I’m the luckiest girl in the world ❤️
