EP #53 – TANYA SARACHO | Trusting Your Instinct & Embracing Your Identities

Born in Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico and raised along the Texas border, Tanya Saracho is an award-winning playwright and television writer who serves as a creator, showrunner and executive producer of the critically-acclaimed series, Vida, which earned 100% critical rating on Rotten Tomatoes for both its first and second seasons.

Before marrying the world of television, in her 20’s, Tanya co-founded Teatro Luna in 2000 and was its co-artistic director for ten years. She also co-founded the Alliance of Latinx Theater Artists (ALTA) of Chicago and is particularly known for centering the "Latina gaze".

Stay here, because in this bright conversation, Tanya spoke about

her transition from theatre to television
the struggles with ageism and challenges of the industry
personal beliefs in curanderismo , brujeria and santeria
queer content creation
…and the importance of intuition and self-preservation in navigating the creative world (and the world in general).
