In this episode of Grown Up, I discuss a topic that has come up many times for me during this self-discovery season: authenticity. In the show's first half, I talk about a part of myself that I have consciously not shared based on fears and worries. As I eventually would discover, it was truly all in my head, and having this talk with myself put so much into perspective. Later on, I am joined by a guest who is fearless in his own right. Actor, screenwriter, and producer Jonathan Burke joins the podcast to discuss his entrepreneurial journey in the TV, Film, and Broadway industry. We discussed his first memory of discovering his passion, how he has built himself up, and more. Of course, at the end of each episode, we feature a new artist for the N.O.W. spotlight segment.
