Pressure Under the Bright Lights: A Conversation with Kristin Chenoweth
Listen now
Description
In the first episode of The Head Start: Embracing the Journey, Nora McInerny gets to talk to living legend Kristin Chenoweth about the pressure and power of living in the public eye. There is a push and pull between the nerves or fear of being judged and the addicting adrenaline rush of performing in front of a community of people that seems to understand you. Kristin and Nora share their stories of struggling with the pressure to work through their vulnerabilities in a public forum and how much harder Kristin’s journey has been because of battling Chronic Migraine. She’s had to literally lean on her co-stars for support, cancel gigs, and has even gotten sick on stage. But through all of that, she really just wants to help others find their inner strength and lean into a community that understands.
