Now is the Perfect Time!

With so many opportunities to perform online videos during this time of Shelter in Place, I thought a few lessons on getting over Stage fright would be a powerful way to inspire each one of us a new way to feature our individual voices and talents to the world.

Whether it's a Ted Talk inspired lesson, a performance art piece, or even an online video resume you would like to upload to a Company you are applying for, these fun and simple exercises will give you the confidence you need to Shine.

It's so rewarding!

When I was a kid, I was the weirdo, the outcast, the "George Mcfly" (From Back to the future, movie) of the class for more than 11 years of Grade school and High school combined, and it wasn't until I landed the lead role as a 4th grader in the 4th and 5th grade production of "Christina the Christmas doll" 1974 That I realized just how rewarding and soul fulfilling it is to be a star, and disappear into another world as someone else, and consequently receive the resulting praise, respect, and heartfelt gratitude for the inspiration to do the same, from the audience.


I can show you how fun and easy it is to set aside societal/parental co-created selves and disappear into another someone, and feel the rewarding personal power that comes from performing, not just as any someone else, but as themselves as someone else. 

It was in 2017 back stage of "Twelfth Night" That it dawned on me what it is to be an actor, and this phrase came to mind, as I wrote it at the top of my script.  

It is in the art of being present, that we present our selves to the world, as a present.

Kathryn DelChiaro Williams

Ever Evolving Awareness Coach

Kathryn is a lifelong performer, spiritual explorer, and devoted student of human consciousness. From an early age, she experienced a profound connection to something deeper — a presence she would come to understand as divine love and awareness. She recalls moments from childhood of observing the world around her with quiet detachment, as if witnessing life unfold from just beyond the scene, aware of herself as both presence and observer. At times, she felt like a foreigner in an unfamiliar world, searching for a sense of belonging. In response, she turned inward — creating imaginative worlds as both refuge and escape from a reality that often felt superficial and isolating. Drawn to an innate inner sense of spiritual connection she found escape in performance, she discovered the stage as a place of transformation — where she could step into different identities, explore new ways of being, and express parts of herself that had no outlet elsewhere. Often perceived as “different,or weird" she used character not only as an escape, but as a doorway — learning to lighten, expand, and connect through a wider range of human expression. With more than 25 years in community theater, Kathryn has performed in both classical and contemporary works, including Crimes of the Heart and Shakespearean productions. From early leading roles to complex portrayals, the stage became both her sanctuary and her training ground — a place where she explored the many layers of identity, emotion, and story. In 1989, she was accepted into San Francisco’s American Conservatory Theater (ACT) Looking at the broadband perspective of that opportunity, she realized she needed to make a decision toward more performing or her souls longing to embrace more Metaphysical and Spiritual study. After having a clairaudient experience where she heard a voice say "In order to be a saint,you must become an actor"(act as a saint and it will bring you into alignment with that reality)the choice for a Spiritually lead life was made. Through these experiences, she developed a deep appreciation for the psychology of character — what shapes it, drives it, and what allows it to transform. This curiosity and connection to source within has always extended beyond performance. Raised in a traditional Catholic environment yet intuitively drawn to broader spiritual inquiry, Kathryn spent decades exploring meditation, consciousness, reincarnation, and the deeper nature of identity. Her path has been guided not by rigid belief systems, but by direct experience and a sincere desire to understand the truth of being. For over 25years, she has also worked as a bodyworker and massage therapist, eventually becoming a Reiki Master Teacher. Through this work, she integrates an understanding of the mind-body connection, emotional conditioning, and energetic awareness — all rooted in a central realization: awareness transforms experience. After more than sixty years of playing the character called “Kathryn,” one question has remained at the heart of her journey: Who — or what — is behind the role? Star in Your Own Story was born from this lifelong inquiry. Kathryn’s work guides others to step out of unconscious patterns, release inherited narratives, and reconnect with the presence beneath the personality — allowing them to live with greater clarity, authorship, and self-trust. She offers a space where spirituality can be explored without rigidity, psychology without shame, and growth without self-rejection. Her work is not about becoming someone new. It is about awakening to what has always been there. Because you are not here merely to survive your story. You are here to consciously create it.
