41. Everything's Coming Up Kristin Chenoweth! Nov 27, 2023

Show notes

"When you self accept that you are where you need to be, and that the space you are taking up is rightfully yours, then you get that sense of knowing, of belonging. It's not by somebody's approval. No, it's by your own." - Kristin on the BVC Podcast.
Kristin Chenoweth is an Emmy and Tony award winning actress, singer, and author. And let's be real, she hardly needs an introduction from us! This interview offers a glimpse into Kristin's inspiring heart and soul. In addition to her life, career, and what she wants to leave as her legacy, we discuss her recent books: the compilation coffee table book "My Moment," her book of mini-meditations, "I'm No Philosopher, But I Got Thoughts," and her delightful children's book "What Will I Do With My Love Today?"
