Key Moments:
INTRO —
(1:20) “The three words that came to me right before I pushed record were: Keep. Me. Honest ... What has kept me away from this mic, away from sharing, away from putting this episode out there? Someone that prides herself on just exposing it all. Have I been hiding? I think I have been.”
(12:10) “It’s vulnerable to let it matter and it’s embarrassing to get it wrong ... It’s upsetting when we see ourselves in an unflattering light too but ... We say things because we need to release them. We bring something up because we want to explore. We want to exhale."
CONVERSATION —
(22:56) “I ended up going home to quarantine for five months and I was the happiest I ever was. I was finding joy every single day. I was excited to wake up in the mornings and I felt okay without theater, without constantly pushing myself to be vulnerable.”
(27:40) “I went through two months of deleting all of my social media. I felt so good. I felt so free ... And, recently, after going on a few dates with someone and now being ghosted, ... I’m back on social media because he’s active on Instagram and I’m constantly scrolling, clicking on my story to see who’s watching it, to make sure that he’s viewed what I’m posting.

(52:10) “When I’m with someone in bed, I feel like I feel more connected when I am pleasing a partner and I don’t necessarily have sex just for myself. It’s to share that intimacy and be vulnerable with another soul.”
(1:30:21) “It’s been a week since I texted him — still no response — and it’s like do I want to reach out again in a better way and try and figure out what he’s dealing with and what he’s thinking or do I just stop texting and delete his number?”
(1:40:00) “The first thing I pictured when you said 'Breakupward' was breaking through that glass ceiling in Willy Wonka. Moving upward and onward from a breakup or from a relationship. Finding the positives in things. And I’m a very optimistic person so I’m always trying to find the joy and find the positive in a messy situation. I think breakingupward is sprouting a new life, taking something from th
