Summary
Actress and mother Lainy Boyle joins me, Raychel Addo, to talk about the real juggle of motherhood and acting — from pregnancy and paused auditions to finding new purpose through creativity and community. In this heartfelt conversation, Lainy Boyle — known for roles in 3 Body Problem, Maternal, and The Good Ship Murder, opens up about the emotional and practical realities of being a working mother in the performing arts. She shares how pregnancy impacted her auditions, the power of support networks like Parents in Performing Arts and Raising Films, and the importance of carving out spaces for creative parents. Whether you’re in the entertainment industry or simply balancing a career and kids, Lainy’s story is a candid reminder that it is possible — and that motherhood can sharpen, not silence, your artistry.
