#207: Practicing Presence: A Top Broadway Actress on Overcoming Fear & Doubt with Sandra Joseph

Being a waitress is almost a clichéd survival job for every aspiring Broadway actress waiting for their break. But Sandra Joseph didn’t just get rejected from her auditions; she even started getting rejected from waitressing jobs four and a half years into her five-year dream-chase in New York. Just as she was starting to think her Broadway dreams were over, her agent got her an opportunity to audition for The Phantom of the Opera. That pivot of a lifetime set her on a course that would eventually make her the longest-running female lead in Broadway’s longest-running show. Throughout her long and fruitful career, Sandra soon realized that some things are more important than achievement. Join in as Sandra graces the show with her elegant presence and talks to Adam Markel about authentic presence, living with gratitude, and implementing practices that help you create a wholesome existence, whether onstage or in life.
