109 - Broadway, Bravery, and Becoming with Mandy Gonzalez

28 Aug 2025

Description

In this deeply moving episode, we sit down with Broadway powerhouse Mandy Gonzalez—known for her unforgettable roles in In the Heights, Hamilton, and most recently as "Norma Desmond" in the Tony Award winning production of Sunset Boulevard—to explore her remarkable journey on and off the stage. Mandy opens up about her vibrant career, her deep connection to storytelling, and the strength she's drawn from her experiences. Mandy shares, with honesty and grace, her personal battle with breast cancer—how she faced her diagnosis while continuing to perform, the emotional and physical challenges of treatment, and the resilience she discovered within herself. Through it all, Mandy found power in community, in vulnerability, and in her voice—not just as a performer, but as an advocate for hope. This episode is a celebration of courage, creativity, and the healing power of art. Whether you're a theater lover, a survivor, or someone in need of inspiration, Mandy's story will leave you uplifted and reminded that strength often shines brightest in our most vulnerable moments.
