“It’s one thing to tell a story . . . It’s another thing to turn that story into actions that can move a room full of people from laughter to tears.

Barbara helped me learn how to get out of my own body emotionally so I could own the feelings and be in the moment in my character’s life. Getting out of my own skin has allowed me to go much deeper into the stories I have to share, and it continues to give my audiences a much richer experience. “
