Stories of the Magic, Episode 25
Sponsored by Leaving Conformity Coaching.
In this episode, we finish my interview with Jennifer McGill. Last time, we talked about how she keeps a balance between work and play on her jobs, how she got connected with several of the jobs she’s had over the years, what she loved most about what she did, her “residual pixie dust” from being on the Mickey Mouse Club, her performing career after Disney, the new album she’s working on, the Disney job she would most love to have, and much more!
After this part of the interview, I’ll play the final clip from This Little Light, performed by Jennifer (and featuring the Mwangaza Children’s Choir), as I did last week.
Jennifer talks about:
- What she never gets asked that she wishes people would ask her;
- Her favorite “Theme Day” from the New Mickey Mouse Club (here’s a hint: lots of guest artists like TLC, New Kids on the Block, Brian McKnight, and Tiffany were involved)…and some great stories about her time on the show and fellow Mouseketeers;
- Meeting Michael Jackson;
- How being on the Mickey Mouse Club taught her to be humble and know her own value without comparing herself to others;
- What inspires her—personally and in the arts;
- Her advice to you for following your dreams;
- And so much more. I can’t even summarize this one—just listen and enjoy.
