Jewel of the Stage: A Broadway Star's Encore in Jewelry and Life
Performing on Broadway, surviving breast cancer, running a successful jewelry brand, and succeeding in everything she does, my guest today, Ana Maria Andricain is a true STAR!
As a fellow performer, we discuss the unique energy exchange that happens on stage. Anna vividly describes how an engaged audience can transform a show, drawing parallels between the theatrical and jewelry-making experiences. The audience, whether on Broadway or in a jewelry studio, is an integral part of the creative process. We explore the power of manifestation and how, as a child, she unknowingly set the stage for her Broadway journey by visualizing her dreams.
Our conversation shifts to the significance of artists and creatives, especially during challenging times. Anna reflects on her experience living in New York and working on Broadway post-9/11, realizing the essential role of art in providing moments of escape and unity.
When Ana was diagnosed with breast cancer, she navigated this unbelievably challenging period with a unique warrior mindset, emphasizing gratitude and a positive outlook. She shares her proactive approach to challenges, drawing on her training as a performer to prepare meticulously, turning perceived weaknesses into superpowers.
Ana's jewelry business, Jewel of Havana, focuses on jewelry that connects you to moments in life, each piece telling a unique story.
