Did it work and could it really work outside of Sweden?   We talk about the palpable change to the living organism that is New York City during Covid and what the future might hold for this adored city.   The incredibly tough work landscape for artists and what it is now morphing into - including some interesting tidbits on the future of casting.  The unparalleled magic of live theatre and how artists are stretching to find opportunity in this bleak time.   The wisdom of mamas (always no matter where you go, they are there!) and how to tame overachiever tendencies in a world that has stopped.   \u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022   GUEST LINKS:   You can find Isra and more of her work here:   Website: www.israelsalihie.com IMDb: https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm8666766\/ Instagram:https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/isra.elsalihie\/     If you have enjoyed this episode and would like to see the story unfold *subscribe to Coexisting at your preferred podcast host here: https:\/\/pod.link\/1517874874 * share with a friend *leave a rating\/review on Apple Podcasts https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/co-existing\/id1517874874 *connect on: FACEBOOK https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/coexistingpodcast INSTAGRAM https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/coexistingpodcast\/  LINKEDIN: https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/coexisting TWITTER: @coexistingpod It all helps people to find us! \u2022\u2022\u2022 SPONSOR LINKS: OTTER.AI SO useful for podcasters and for creatives alike who need a quick way to get thoughts down on paper if you would like to try out my awesome transcription tool, use this link to try out a month of PREMIUM features. https:\/\/otter.ai\/referrals\/SQ99ZMYK After the first month you can revert to basic (free) or premium which gives you 6000 minutes transcription time.  OPENRENT THE best way to rent your property out as a private landlord in the UK, an UBER easy to use site, they think of everything - and you save a packet in agent fees (I saved multiple hundreds v a high street firm) - use this sponsor link for a free trial! https:\/\/openrent.co.uk\/invite\/c\/coexisting Thank you for supporting the products that keep Coexisting existing!  ","author_name":"Coexisting","author_url":"http:\/\/coexisting.libsyn.com\/website","html":"
