Hi! My name is Leah Raidt (she/her), and this is my first blog post since LiveJournal in the early 2000's. I am cis, white, queer woman based in Chicago, IL (by way of Louisville, KY) . I works as a creative leader (professional actor, acting instructor, private coach, freelance producer, theatremaker) and meditation teacher (self-induced transcendence style and mindfulness). Yes, I wear a lot of hats!
