Carrie (@carrie.gillaspie) is jazzed to welcome Broadway star Alex Matteo (@alexandramatteo) to the show!

Alex shares where she grew up and what she was like as a child, how she first caught the preforming bug, and when she learned you could actually sing, dance, and act as a JOB! She opens up about leaving Kansas to pursue musical theatre at the Boston Conservatory, landing her first gig touring with the Addams Family, and spending the next 10 years as a broadway gypsy. Carrie is curious how Alex is caring for herself mentally and cultivating her creativity during COVID 19 while all broadway shows are shut down. Alex fills us in on her incredible podcast - Pill It Together - and what goals and dreams she's cultivating for the future.
