Some kids grow up wanting to be a Nurse, a Doctor, Scientist or Teacher... but what about the kids who want to grow up to be a Singer, an Actress or Director? There has always been a kind of automatic eye roll that happens with a sarcastic, "Good Luck with that", attached to it. Patricia Mercado knows this feeling all too well but she is not the only one. In this episode Patricia and I talk about our childhood struggle with eating disorders, her journey to finding herself and the life of her dreams in New York City as an Actress, and how her daughter has given her the drive to overcome anything or anyone that stands in her way.
