About Meghan
I am a dancer, personal trainer and performer, most recently cast in the Broadway ensemble for Hamilton: An American Musical.
I am also an advocate for mental health and suicide prevention. I am currently working with NAMI and AFSP in their respective advocacy programs and have been a volunteer for the Crisis Text Line for over a year.
Throughout my career, there have been several times that I seriously questioned if I was strong enough to do what was being asked of me – if I was even good enough to be there.
After talking with other artists and performers in the industry and learning that this was a common experience, the idea for Inside Out Performance was born.
Inside Out Performance is a fitness and wellness program for performers created by a performer.
Each individualized program combines science based fitness and nutrition techniques with behavioral modification strategies, providing a meaningful, individualized approach to unlocking your full performance potential on and offstage.

Train Your Mind, Just As You Would Train Your Body
When you think, “I am not good enough,” you give yourself permission to become exactly that: not good enough.
Instead, when the workout gets tough, when you might want to quit, give power to a different story: “I am good enough. I can do this.” You are what you give power to.
