What is Your Hidden Passion?

We all have a hidden passion……a secret talent.  Something special that we love that is 100% not related to our jobs.  A conversation at the One and Only Ivan Press Junket? Reminded me of the importance of fostering mine (and my daughter's).

the one and only press junket

This is a WEIRD time.  So many of us have spent more time at home in the last six months than we have for the last six years.  This is why we've all picked up new hobbies.  From becoming sourdough masters to demolishing our own bathrooms…..it seems like we've all tapped into our inner passions.  And it's good, right?

I've become, quite the newbie gardener.  In fact, I spent 3 weeks removing huge rocks and roots and turning an abandoned dirt plot into a vegetable garden.  This passion? My new art that has absolutely nothing to do with teaching, parenting, this blog…..has been a mental reprise during a tough time.  I found myself retreating to the plot each day and gaining so much joy from watching my work blossom into something new and beautiful.

The One and Only Ivan is a piece of art in itself (in our The One and Only Ivan movie review that I'll tell you all about it and why it's a must see on Disney Plus)…..but my favorite part of the chat we had with the cast during the press junket? Hearing about their passions that have NOTHING to do with acting.

What is Your Hidden Passion?

“The character Bob is rather prophetic……. he said, we're all a little artsy……I actually wanted to kick this off by asking everybody, how you're a little bit artsy outside of your acting.”

That's intense right? To ask Angelina Jolie, Bryan Cranston, Sam Rockwell, Danny DeVito, Helen Mirren, Chaka Khan and the whole cast what they love besides acting (this art that they're MASTERS of).  I loved hearing their answers.

Bryan Cranston, yes he's the sourdough master and Chaka Khan? Told us about how she ran away and joined the circus at age 16.  But my favorite answer? Came from Angelina Jolie (that probably doesn't come as a shock).

“But I think my creativity is my kids….being with them and making up stories before bed or just being silly with them. I think…. just watching each of them become uniquely who they are and being around it and going into each of their, whether it be their rooms and talking to them or developing….helping them develop…….love seeing other people's creativity.”

Seeing other people's creativity, is always inspiring to me.  And The One and Only Ivan? Explores how creativity becomes a method of communication for Ivan himself.  And I can't wait for you guys to see it.

THE ONE AND ONLY IVAN is streaming on Disney+ starting August 21st!

✨One of my favorite spots on the Disney Wish? The Bayou Lounge.  It’s stunning.  Perfectly detailed, ornate and plush and feels like……..a place you’d love to sit and sip on something fabulous.  There is live music in the evenings, there are beignets all day, and fancy drinks too.  It’s perfect for….one of my favs.

✨Is she one of your favorites too? (ps swipe for an iconic appearance)

💦 I had to: full Disney Wish Aquamouse report 💦

For research purposes…..since anything that combines Disney and bathing suits is a requirement in my book.

Scroll to see my ride cam and reactions (and a sneak peak at Disney’s first attraction at sea).

Is it scary? No. 
Will kids like it? Yes.
Will adults like it? Yes.
Is it adorable? 100% yes.

Now…..would you ride the Aquamouse? Drop a yes or no in the comments.

<hosted by Disney> I had ONE thing I wanted to do during our day at Epcot before we sail away for the Christening of the Disney Wish tomorrow.  And it lived up to every expectation I had. ⠀
⠀
Seriously, this ride is a magical addition to the parks (and I know WDW people it’s not new to you but it was new to us Disneylanders…..I’m SO glad I didn’t watch ride spoilers beforehand……it was so fun to experience it this way!)⠀
⠀
So, if you had to pick ONE thing to do at Walt Disney World….what would your priority be? Now I have to know (and why is it something Epcot related).⠀
