Hello Ms. In the Biz readers! I know you’re all busy, busy ladies, so let’s get this on the road… I decided to go back to school and finish my BA in Theatre! In one of my classes I told my group mates they should do as much work behind the scenes as they do in front of the stage/camera. One of them asked me why, and to be honest it’s not hard: appreciation and respect. Actors need to have an appreciation for those who work behind the scenes because without them performers wouldn’t have anything: staring from a script,…

Hello “Ms. In the Biz” busy bee readers! I know how exhausting it can be when you’re on a new “diet”, and it seems the Universe is trying to sabotage your efforts. Junk food, candy, bake goods, and the list goes on. Well, being a busy bee myself, I want to share what I usually carry around with me at all times 😉 Although I’m a very “basic” Raw Vegan–if I can, I’ll eat the lettuce straight out of the grocery bag as opposed to make a salad :P–I do have some essential foods I carry with me whenever I’m…
As a “Ms. In the Biz” you’re bound to be a busy bee: between auditions, callbacks, meetings, or just dealing with traffic. So I put together some simple recipes to take with you on the run–wherever that may be. I promise, these recipes take 10 minutes each! I don’t know if it’s just my head or if it’s a sign from my body, but I’ve been craving peaches and nectarines. Peaches and nectarines are a summer fruit, so I guess my craving is a seasonal one. Oh, and my craving is a hardcore craving, dare I say like a pregnant lady–oh, I didn’t not…
By the time you read this I’ll be finished with my first phase of P90X and the 30 Day Squat Challenge. Let me tell you, it’s been grueling. And painful. Ouch. One of my goals in this health quest is to keep processed foods to a minimum–or obsolete. This means no protein powder shakes for me–raw, vegan, or otherwise. Yes, protein shakes are processed foods (read about it here or here)… Sorry guys 🙁 So, what do I eat before my workout? Well, I eat fruit. Yup, fruit. I can either eat it as a smoothie or normal. My favorite…
My relationship with food hasn’t always been a happy or healthy one. When I moved to the US, without my immediate family, my weight shot up. Whether it was the extreme processed food intake, missing my family, learning a new language, culture shock, or a combination of it all, I went from a healthy child to an overweight child. Since then it’s been quite a roller coaster ride. About three years ago, after reading the book Skinny Bitch, I decided to become a vegetarian. It’s been quite an experience and I haven’t looked back, but I became a “starchytarian”: vegetarian…
