194 Bobby Hedglin-Taylor – #Shitmymamasays: chosing humour to combat grief and leave a legacy

Bobby Hedglin-Taylor “The multi Hyphenated artist”.  Trapeze artist-actor-dancer-singer- acrobat – impressionist-author- officiant- aerial sequence choreographer- stand up comic – mixologist – teacher – coach. 
In Bobby’s words:
“It was very telling being called the “multi-hyphenated artist”.  I’ve done so many different creative things with my life and I will always be an artist no matter what medium of art I use or canvas.  If I am using a pen and paper, a stage, a microphone, a trapeze or a  cocktail shaker I am an artist first and foremost.    (See my full bio below)  Not just dabbling in other art forms but successful both artistically and financially in all of those platforms.   I’m comfortable wearing the title.  It suits me. 🙂 
2020 was a painful year for me.   
 The pandemic began with the governor shutting down visitation to nursing homes and I wasn’t able to visit my mother who had been a resident of a local nursing home here for 5 years.  Two days later Broadway shut down and my boss called me and said we’re shutting down for 2 weeks.   11 days later, my mother died in the nursing home.   There was no covid test to give the actual cause of death, but with her symptoms leading up to her death, I’m confident in saying that it was not a coincidence when she passed and what I believe she died from.    Losing my mother was huge.  She was my best friend and my hero.  She died on March 21st.   The morning of March 22nd I woke up with a fever of 104, body aches, headache like an anvil sitting on my temple and I couldn’t smell or taste anything.   Yes, I had Covid19.  Terrified and isolated, I retreated and took care of myself until I could figure out and navigate a way to get through it.   Fighting for my own life now, in my waking hours that I could focus and function I began to write.”
The end result:  Bobby is the Author of 2 books-
#ShitMyMamaSays (available on Amazon) and 
Escape to Ravioli Mountain-a memoir in food (coming this fall).

3 top tips for my audience:
1. Laugh every day no matter what
2. Save 10% or ⅓ of your income always! 
3. Don’t be in show business for the money, because there isn’t any.  Be in it because you LOVE IT.
