Are you willing to go all-in when it comes to investing in your dream?

 

Today’s guest transitioned from full-time performer to entrepreneur, invested ALL of his savings, completely emptied his bank account and took a leap of faith to create a training ground for the next generation of Broadway artists.

 

Robert Hartwell is the Founder and Artistic Director of The Broadway Collective -- an arts education program for performing arts students. 

 

After a wildly successful career as a performing artist on Broadway—performing in five Broadway shows including Hello! Dolly with Bette Midler, at the Tony Awards, and at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade—Robert left his dream job as a performer to become an arts education entrepreneur. 

 

By saying yes to the unknown, Robert earned massive success for himself and his business, while inspiring his students and giving them permission to go all-in to achieve their dreams. In this episode, Robert takes us through his journey from pain to purpose and dives into why he is committed to use The Broadway Collective to give others—especially from underrepresented groups—the opportunity to succeed. 

 

In the words of Robert, “The Broadway community has shown me your gift was never for you, but for you to use it to open doorways for others.”
