STOPTIME: Live in the Moment.
Ranked in the top 5% of podcasts globally and winner of the 2022 Communicator Award for Podcasting, STOPTIME:Live in the Moment combines mindfulness, well being and the performing arts and features thought provoking and motivational conversations with high performing creative artists around practicing the art of living in the moment and embracing who we are, and where we are at. Long form interviews are interspersed with brief solo episodes that prompt and invite us to think more deeply. Hosted by Certified Professional Coach Lisa Hopkins, featured guests are from Broadway, Hollywood and beyond. Although her guests are extraordinary innovators and creative artists, the podcast is not about showbiz and feels more like listening to an intimate coaching conversation as Lisa dives deep with her talented guests about the deeper meaning behind why they do what they do and what theyβve learned along the way. Lisa is a Certified Professional Coach, Energy Leadership Master Practitioner and CORE Performance Dynamics Specialist at Wide Open Stages. She specializes in working with high-performing creative artists who want to play full out. She is a passionate creative professional with over 20 years working in the performing arts industry as a director, choreographer, producer, writer and dance educator.

Every day I make my bed.
I donβt always feel like making it.
But still, I make my bed.
Some days the blankets feel heavy and I bang my shin against the frame.
Other days, I marvel at the way the sheet catches the air as I shake it out
floating down easily like a parachute making its soft landing.
Either way, I make my bed.
Some days even though I know I should strip the bed and wash the sheets,
I donβt take the time or energy to change them.
But still, I make my bed.
Some days Iβm so excited to get up that I consider racing out the door instead. So I slow myself down for a moment.
And I make my bed.
Only I know if my bed is messy underneath the top cover that I smooth straight in case someone might catch a glance of my bedroom.
Nobody sees me making the bed and I donβt ask for help. Because at the end of the day, itβs my bed. And however I make it each day - is up to me. And that is how Iβll have to sleep in it. It wonβt always be hotel-style perfect but itβs my bed. Iβm so lucky to have a bed.
So everyday, I make my bed.
Iβm Lisa Hopkins, thanks for listening. Stay safe and healthy everyone and remember to live in the moment.
