“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” - Nelson Mandela

Amen to that! 🙌🏾

Thanks to everyone who supported my impossible dream! Here are the final four minutes from my show where EVERY night, over five days, the audience was ready to FIGHT Phil for me. Omg! 🤣

My heart is full and now God has me looking at the other impossible dreams on my bucket list saying, “They’re not impossible enough.” (Um, okay, what?!😳)

I’m taking some time to process that and ALL the overwhelming love and joy from the show.

It’s a lot.😩

Thanks to the amazing team behind the scenes who helped me:

Consulting Director: Akwasi Osei-Tutu
Stage Manager: Tino Nyoni
Production Consultant: Janet McLeod
Sound Consultant: Dale Gorfinkel
Costume Consultant: Karine Larché
Makeup Consultant: Juedd Mari
Marketing and Publicity Consultants:
Esther Fwati, Beverley Natasha, Dianne Morris
Show Publicity Images: Catherine Black

Lastly, a special shout out to:

@sheamoisture.australia for sponsoring the door and raffle prizes every night so winners could glow beyond the show.💆🏾‍♀️

@lamamatheatre for their team’s whole-hearted, full-bodied excitement and genuine support from Day 1.

And to one of my faves…

@msniasha for blessing me with her empowering song ‘Boss Queen’ as the intro and outro anthem for my show. Those vibes STILL have me walking different. 🎶💪🏾

Seriously…My. Heart. Is. Full. Thank you, all! 🩵😭✨

Last night, I told the @generation_women_aus audie

Last night, I told the @generation_women_aus audience about the time I stole a car. (Don’t worry, the story isn’t THAT bad and has a happy ending.)☺️

I loved sharing the stage with these five women who had us IN TEARS with their equally wild tales.

And the best part of the night? A dear friend from high school who I hadn’t seen in 23 years came to the show. She was only visiting Melbourne for a few days and showed up to support me. 😭

It was the best reunion…and these are the pics she took of me doing what I’ve always loved since high school. I love them and I’ll never forget last night. ✨🩵

I can’t stop smiling every time I see this pictu

I can’t stop smiling every time I see this picture. She even had me walk into the room with my eyes closed before she did the big reveal. Aw, my baby! 😍
