Episode 27, Fig Chilcott (Actor, Writer, Creative)

The Blank Paige

In this sweet episode I have a bi-coastal zoom chat with my unicorn of a friend, Fig Chilcott. Fig is an exceptional actress, writer and observer of human behavior. In this pandemic-time chat we talk about how Fig burst earthside during the Loma Prieta earthquake, tiny Fig's love of playing "preacher", her profound memory of wanting to use her very own BIG voice in a children's theatre audition, the sweet knowledge she gleaned from being raised by 2 lifelong artists, our wild monster-woman times together in college, how she uses humor to battle her ingestion of unhealthy societal norms, what self-care looks like for her, how she came into taking up space and owning her Actors Studio membership, what she's learned from her bartending days, the kinds of stories she wants to tell, the lessons she's learned from theatre, how she manages worry, and LOTS more. Fig is a wonder of self-awareness, wisdom and deep love. If you're needing a reminder to care for yourself with tenderness this week...here you are. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm10039847/ https://www.instagram.com/figgie_smalls/?hl=en --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theblankpaige/message
