In this episode, we meet a dynamic small-town woman stepping fully into the role of her life…and no, it’s not just on stage or screen. Mercedez Varble is a mom of two, a medical professional, a college student, and a passionate performer who’s found healing through creativity after the loss of her Mom at a young age. From belting out karaoke classics to starring in the cult short film Fall of Greyskull (with a sequel on the way), she’s embraced every part of her journey with heart, humor, and vibrance. Whether she’s acting in a theater production or answering emails from her kitchen table, she’s learning to balance real life with stage life. This episode is about grief, grit, and the scenes that shape us. Because sometimes, the most powerful role you’ll ever play… is your own.
