Episode 149: Hadley Fraser

 

Actor and singer

            It was such a gift for me to connect with English singer and actor, Hadley Fraser. I was first introduced to Hadley's talent through his portrayal of Raoul in the 25th anniversary of The Phantom of the Opera filmed live at the Royal Albert Hall. Hadley sat down with me to talk about his acting, balancing his family and his career, his love of nature, and his reflections on the meaning of life and God. 

            For my listeners in the U.K., Hadley Fraser and Ramin Karimloo will be appearing at The London Palladium this Sunday, November 24th, in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. There are still tickets available! I wish I was in London this weekend. ;)

           Please enjoy the 149th episode of Lament of Hope highlighting Hadley Fraser. Hadley, thank you for taking time to talk with me. I really enjoyed our conversation, especially the side quests.

Episode 148: Natalie Lloyd

 

Author

            Natalie Lloyd was such a sweet woman to interview and definitely young of heart. Natalie is an author who lives with brittle bone disease, but it does not define her life or identity. She talked with me about her books, especially Hummingbird, living with brittle bone disease, and how much she loves her husband.

Episode 147: Michael Barnes

 

Lead singer of Red

            Michael Barnes is the lead vocalist of the rock band, Red. Michael joined our interview from the beautiful outdoors and talked with me about music and life. I really enjoyed talking with Michael. He was just himself, no showy talk or need to impress, but open and honest. I think anyone watching this interview will be blessed by hearing our conversation.

Episode 146: Rose Reid

 

Actress

            I really enjoyed talking with Rose Reid. Rose Reid played Finley in a favorite coming-of-age romance film of mine, Finding You, which came out in 2021. Highly recommend if you have a soft spot for anything Irish and a hankering for a sweet romance story!! :) Rose was so genuine and raw about her thoughts and feelings on several subjects such as film, femininity, and faith. I felt like I was making a new friend. This was one of my favorite interviews so far, and I think you will find it very thought-provoking.

           Please enjoy the 146th episode of Lament of Hope highlighting Rose Reid. Rose, I am so grateful we got to connect. Thank you for taking the time to do this and talk with me about parts of your life journey. I so hope we meet for coffee in the future!
