S2; EP 9 -- Shaina Taub: Facing a Dying Nation

Saison 2 · Épisode 9

mercredi 26 février 2025Durée 58:01

“I think one of the reasons I wanted to be a multi-hyphenate and wear all the hats in SUFFS was to hopefully, if I could, inspire others to show, specially young women,that’s an avenue available to us as well… and the multi-hyphenate male artist is sort of a moniker that goes unquestioned.”

On this episode of Dear Multi-Hyphenate, we have one of Broadway’s hottest writers, Shaina Taub, writer and star of SUFFS on Broadway. A true multi-hyphenate, we discuss:

The responsibility of starring in a musical you wrote.

Any ghostly visits from Alice Paul?

Sacrifice.

The creation of SUFFS.

Lessons learned.

Establishing boundaries.

Organizational tips.

Facing a dying nation and the progress we’ve made.

Shaina Taub is an American actress, singer, musician, and Tony Award-winning composer.Taub composed and starred in three adaptations of Shakespeare plays for The Public Theater's Public Works program: Twelfth Night in both 2016 and 2018 and As You Like It in 2017. Taub has appeared Off-Broadway in the revival of the revue show Old Hats in 2016, Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 as Princess Mary (2013), and Hadestown as a Fate (2016). She played the role of Emma Goldman in the Ragtime on Ellis Island concert and performed at Joe's Pub in Manhattan monthly during a solo residency.

In 2022, her original musical Suffs, based on suffragists and their American women's suffrage movement, premiered off-Broadway at The Public Theater.

“You know – when you have multiple mini successes in a row, just how affirming that can be. And how for me, personally, it spills into the rest of my day, the rest of the week – there’s a part of me that wishes that career successes didn’t affect my mood that much, but it’s absolutely true that it does – and then I feel like it begets more success in just every other aspect of my life.”

Soda. Especially the ones from EPCOT.

Saison 1 · Épisode 102

mardi 27 février 2024Durée 01:22:03

“What ever jobs you have on your path to where you're trying to get to to your vision all matter. And the fact that we call these things a side hustle or we talk about ‘the unwanted jobs' and all of those types of descriptions… it's not empowering people.” -- Jodi Carter

When it comes to being an artist, what is the first thing we have to know about money? 

According to Jodi Carter, it’s a new language. A wow, do we discover a new language in this episode. This episode is deeply, deeply personal and Michael and Jodi truly get into a vulnerable conversation about money. It might be something all artists can relate to. 

What is “ifcome” and how does it change our perspective of money managing?

How do we work around the starving artist paradigm?

The pressure to say yes and show up. Is it healthy?

The myth of uncertainty and the myth of someday.

Things we make up to ourselves when it comes to money. 

A big financial hug.

Jodi Carter, CPA, has spent decades helping individuals, couples, and families – from all different financial levels and circumstances – make countless choices. This unique view sparked her desire to reach people how to live their best lives. Jodi founded Financial Insight Training to help people shift their lives from stress to freedom.

As a lifelong supporter of the arts, Jodi knew she has to create a program specifically tailored to the unique needs of artists, who live with fluctuating income and need specialized guidance for managing their finances.
