    Laurie Hernandez: Is Broadway is Harder Than The Olympics?

    Welcome to the debut episode of Entre Acts! Host Linedy Genao sits down with the incredible Laurie Hernandez—a two-time Olympic medalist, Dancing with the Stars champion, and now, an actor making her Broadway debut in & Juliet. In this fun and vibrant conversation, Linedy and Laurie explore the "in-between" spaces of life and artistry, playing games like dominoes to break the ice and discussing everything from the perfect hoagie sandwich to their favorite Bad Bunny song. Beyond the laughs and the chisme, Laurie gets vulnerable about her massive career transitions, comparing her rigorous Olympic gymnastics training to the intense, athletic demands of performing eight shows a week on Broadway. She opens up about navigating performance anxiety with the help of sports psychology, the importance of Latina representation on the world stage, and the profound realization that stepping into the unknown—like attending drama school at NYU after retiring from gymnastics at 21—can lead to beautiful new beginnings. Laurie Hernandez is a powerhouse talent who first captured the world's heart as a two-time Olympic medalist in gymnastics. Since retiring from the sport, she has continuously expanded her horizons, winning the mirrorball trophy on season 23 of Dancing with the Stars, becoming a two-time New York Times best-selling author, and serving as an NBC analyst. A proud Latina and national speaker advocating for mental health, children's rights, and women's empowerment, Laurie is in her senior year at NYU with a drama major and a creative writing minor. She is currently thrilling audiences while making her highly anticipated Broadway debut in the hit musical & Juliet.
