    REWIND Vulnerable EP09: Halloweentown Actress Kimberly J. Brown Gets Vulnerable

    VULNERABLE REWIND: Today on Vulnerable, I sit down with Kimberly J. Brown. Kimberly is an actress who started her career at just five years old. We grew up together in the industry, crossing paths at commercial auditions, on Broadway, and later in California during our Disney Channel days. So it was great to catch up with my friend! In this episode, Kimberly and I reflect on our experiences in NYC being child actors. Kimberly shares what it was like to be Young Cosette in Les Miserables and how she juggled being on Broadway and a regular on Guiding Light at the same time.  We also talk about being the first Disney Channel “stars” and what it was like to usher a new era for the Disney Channel in terms of entertainment that adults and kids today still enjoy! Kimberly shared how she navigated her education while acting and why she decided to go to college and study something entirely outside of “the arts.” Kimberly’s deep wisdom from growing up in the industry, has allowed her to really own her creative endeavors, from continuing her acting, to writing and producing sketches on her YouTube and social channels, to selling unique graphic tees on her Etsy shop, to traveling and interacting with fans at Cons. Kimberly has crafted a life she enjoys. She truly loves that her work can bring someone joy. PLUS, we even learn how unexpected love came into her life when she reconnected with her Halloweentown co-star. This episode highlights how you can design a life you love that will uplift all the talents that make you, you!  You can follow Kimberly @OfficialKJB on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. If you are a fan of custom artwork, graphic tees, and more, check out Kimberly’s Etsy shop CraftilyCreative.

Kevin has been bringing the animated Batman to life through his voice for 30 YEARS! Can you believe it? Kevin shares how his Julliard training and love for Shakespeare inform the way he voices Batman. He also details the origin of how the two distinct voices between Bruce Wayne and Batman came to be. Kevin is such a generous artist. It’s evident in the way he’s mentored Will, but also in how he celebrates everyone person who acts or voices a Batman. He gives insight into why Batman is still a relevant and welcomed character to explore.  Kevin also shares what cartoons he grew up watching and offers the sweetest story about his first imaginary friends. Although Kevin believes the Batman story is the ultimate true hero’s journey, Kevin is OUR TRUE HERO, and we think you’ll agree. Follow Kevin on Twitter @RealKevinConroy. Kevin is also on Cameo!
