Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mothers out there for doing all that you do (and being totally exhausted at the end of the day) but still encouraging loving. 🙌💕😘 I see you. I get you. I am you. Be proud of all you give and remember to give that love back to yourself too. 💕😍🙌 And to anyone who has lost their mother, I know how hard today can be. I lost my dear mom 12 years ago, so I understand. Know that her light shines through you today and always and when you think of her today (or anytime) it’s because she thought of you first😍💕😘 #HappyMothersDay2022 #momlife #actorlife #Actorinspiration #loveyourself #boymom

My beautiful mother would have been 92 today. 🌈💕🌈 Loved by so many children for her years as The Romper Room Lady, Miss Beverly. This Chicago Tribune Magazine cover captures her light, her charm, her joy and how much she loved inspiring and teaching children. She was on Romper Room from 1962-1967, decades (ok, years) before I was born. In those days, you couldn’t say the word “pregnant” on TV or even BE pregnant on tv. (Now, it seems, you can watch someone get pregnant on tv!) So, she had to say “I am going to have a “Do-Bee” of my own.” Do-Bee Don’t Bee were life-sized bees that would come to Romper Room to teach children about manners. I have a feeling that whoever told her to tell the children she was going to have a “do-bee of her own’ was probably stoned. 😳 Anyway, my mom passed away in 2010, 2 weeks before her 80th birthday. She met my first son at 16 months old, and never met the 2nd son, but assured me, I would definitely have another. She loved the theatre and made sure we saw every show that came through Chicago (even if it meant working as volunteer ushers- which we did). She encouraged my love of the arts and supported my every dream. She also started every standing ovation I ever got since high school. 👏👏👏 One of our last moments together was me singing “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” to her and letting her know it was okay to let go. Losing a parent is one of the toughest things I’ve gone through. But I know, that my mother’s love and light live on within me, and now, I get to continue to pass that along to my own children. I am so thankful for all I learned from this beautiful soul. She wouldn’t want me to be sad today, she’d want me to celebrate, to sing, to dance, to live. So, here’s to making the most of the life you’ve been given. As far as I know, you only get one. I’m gonna turn on Judy Garland, and sing and dance, and who’s kidding who – probably bawl my eyes out. No matter how you are feeling today, remember…. Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue. And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true. 🌈💕🌈💕🌈 #RomperRoom #MissBeverly #RomperRoomLady #ChicagoTribuneMagazine

This is 21. Back when Linda Evangelista was my Spirit Animal.
To the man who still makes me laugh, makes me melt makes my life better in every way, 15 years, 2 kids and a whole lot of amazing adventures later…. Happy Anniversary sweetheart. I love you the life we’ve created together. “I set out on a narrow way many years ago Hoping I would find true love along the broken road But I got lost a time or two Wiped my brow and kept pushing through I couldn’t see how every sign pointed straight to you…” “That every long lost dream led me to where you are Others who broke my heart, they were like Northern stars Pointing me on my way into your loving arms This much I know is true… That God blessed the broken road That led me straight to you.” – Rascal Flatts (Bless The Broken Road) 💕 07.14.07💕

Fun fact: Bruce Springsteen’s “Born In The USA” tour was my first concert in 1986 in Chicago’s Soldier Field. Then, years later in 1994 I moved to LA and was a production assistant on The Oscars. I was backstage when Bruce Springsteen was up for best song for “The Philadelphia Story” and I saw him backstage during a rehearsal and told him, “You we’re the first concert I went to in Soldier Field and I was on one end zone and you were on the other, but I felt like you were singing to me.” He said, “Aww thanks darlin’” and gave me a kiss on the cheek. A moment I’ll remember forever. What was your first concert? ❤️😍🎉 Drop it in the comments. #happy4thofjuly #BruceSpringsteen #brucespringsteenfans #brucespringsteenconcert #brucespringsteenfan #bornintheusabrucespringsteen
Let’s just call this “Sweet Tea Sunday.” Thankful to book off a self-tape, work with some amazing people on a film this past week, have a late call time one day which meant I could see my sweet son perform at his school, and inspire actors worldwide to own their uniqueness and shine their light. These are all the things I love to do – be an actress, a mom and an uplifter. #ActorInspiration #actorlife #setlife #momlife #lovemyjob #redheadedactress #comedy
Heading to set tomorrow on a top secret project. Always fun to play for a living. And dance it out along the way. 🎬🎉⭐️❤️ #Actorinspiration #actorlife #casting #redheadactress

Simply the best to get together with dear friends and support live theatre. “Tina” at The Pantages was an eye-opening tale of triumph over tragic conditions, of shining brightly when others want to pull you down and believing in the power of your dreams. What an unstoppable force she was. So much fun treating my gal pals to a surprise early surprise birthday present. Love you guys: @jenhawt @kelimurphy511 #SimplyTheBest
❤️❤️❤️My heart is so full. I just connected with actors from all over the world. Germany to Vancouver, New York to LA to London who said this free live class was “empowering, uplifting, inspiring, and everything they needed in this moment to thrive.” I have 2 more live events coming up.Copy this link: Actorinspiration.com/secrets or go to link in bio here : @actorinspirit and join me live! 🎬🎉⭐️ #actorlife #selftapes #workingactor #ActorInspiration #PrepareLikeAPro #SuccessfulWorkingActor
Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing dads. 💙💙💙 I remember being in my early 30s, just getting over a devastating break up (feeling I was late on my marriage and family timeline) and wondering if I’d ever find true love. I also remember hearing this piece of advice: “Marry the man you want your sons to be like.” I’m feel so grateful today that (along my winding path) I reconnected with this amazing man who leads with love, light, humor, grace and compassion. My own father (who I lost over 20 years ago) never met my husband, but I know he would have loved him dearly. So if you’re missing your dad today or wondering how life will turn out for you, just keep trusting in the future you cannot see. Thank you to my sweet husband for teaching our sons to ride the waves of life. Then. And now. And as my late father suggested: #KeepGoingSunshine 💙💙🏄♂️🏄♂️🙏🙏 #socalliving #surfinglifestyle #happyfathersday
I could put you in first class…up in the sky. #puppetcombo #puppetshow #puppettheatre #roadtrip #summervibes
Today is 1.24.24 << This is your sign that YES, things are lining up for you (even if you don’t see evidence of it yet).🎭 This is also your sign that if you’re 24 days into the New Year where you started out hopeful, but now you feel depleted, lost or overwhelmed, you will LOVE this revolutionary approach to creating success (and happiness).❤️ Last week I helped hundreds of creatives get unstuck, bust through blocks, reignite their confidence and feel more “free, hopeful and happy than I have in a really long time…” AND…have epic breakthroughs in under 90 minutes – FOR FREE.🚀 AND…NONE OF IT involved getting “BUSY DOING MORE.” (Refreshing, isn’t it?) Since so many people reached out who couldn’t join me live… I’m hosting a 🔴 LIVE ENCORE MASTERCLASS this Saturday, January 27 and you’re invited. 🎉🎉🎉 In less time than it takes to watch a movie, you’ll not only learn how to release frustration, resentment anger (hello double strikes “where are my auditions”), but you’ll walk away with a roadmap for creating real breakthroughs. (Yes, I’m sharing the exact blueprint that has helped actors in 25 countries thrive in their lives and careers). Here’s a sample of what you’ll learn: ⭐️ How to get bigger results with far less effort. ⭐️ A simple shift to release what’s blocking you. ⭐️ Why most actors don’t succeed how to beat the odds. ⭐️ 4 key questions that lead to major transformation. ⭐️ 6 words to help you reclaim your power instantly. ⭐️ 5-step proven system to create your own breakthroughs And you’ll get a swag bag when you join me LIVE that will help you accelerate your success. 🎁🎁 So, if you “set your intentions” a few weeks ago, but now you’re doom scrolling during “awards season” and thinking “I should be further along by now,” I get it.🏆 And, I want you to know, there’s a much easier (and more joyful way) to turning your dreams into reality. 🚀❤️🎉 Join me 🔴 LIVE learn a new approach so you can SOAR in 2024. Then drop “Things are lining up for me.” in the comments and I will send you the link 🤩⭐😍. Then, if you’re inspired, share this post to your stories so others can join us too! ❤️.
I just booked another great role off a self-tape am heading to a fitting today, 🙌 but also wanted to make sure my beautiful global acting community had the direct link to a free class I just taught live. 🌎🎬⭐️Watch The Replay at link in bio: @actorinspirit or here>> ActorInspiration.com/secrets I love that actors from London to Bombay, Atlanta to L.A., New York to Vancouver, Rome to Scotland and Capetown to Chicago joined me for a game-changing (some called it life-changing!) masterclass. The comments lighting up the chat from so many actors saying this was “Empowering, confidence boosting, soul-affirming, and like pressing the reset button” all inside of 90 minutes with me is truly WHY I do what I do.💖 ⭐Watch the Replay at link in bio @actorinspirit or here: ActorInspiration.com/secrets I’m actually not surprised that they got so much out of it, since it’s completely related to everything you are going through right now as an actor (and chock full of every secret actors worldwide and I are using to BOOK MORE WORK off self-tapes right now). If you want to start this week in a brand-new headspace reignite your confidence, this class will help you do just that more. Enjoy! ⭐Watch the Replay at link in bio @actorinspirit or here: ActorInspiration.com/secrets Enjoy! 🎬❤️⭐️ – Wendy Braun #ActorInspiration #PrepareLikeAPro #ReigniteYourConfidence
⭐ What do Series Regulars, Broadway actors an actress with a star on The Hollywood Walk Of Fame all have in common? 👉 The Success Breakthrough Workshop For the last 9 years, while living my own amazing dreams, I’ve been helping so many other creatives do the same. ⭐ It’s been the ride of my life, and the moments I live for, to help another creative warrior turn their biggest dreams into reality. (And the only course of its kind to be featured in Forbes).🤩 And the reason actors of this caliber return every year to do this work, is because there’s nothing else like it out there for creatives. ⭐ This is where it started for over 1330 students in 25 countries. Most all of them signed up scared, frustrated, overwhelmed, and filled with self-doubt. But they each made a decision that shaped their destiny joined me in this revolutionary course for creatives. 🤩 So excited to welcome the Class of 2024. The doors to The Success Breakthrough workshop are closing. And if you want to join us, now is the time. DM me “SUCCESS” and I will send you the direct link for exclusive pricing and bonuses. Doors close tonight. 🤩⭐
