"It’s the greatest gift in my career," Murphy said. "There won’t be another 'Bridgerton' for me. I know this is my legacy."

So I was thrilled to have a chance to speak with the choreographer and movement director responsible for the dances in all three seasons of "Bridgerton" plus the "Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story" spinoff.

"I will not let the actors move for movement’s sake. They have to move out of intent: 'I want to woo you. I want to guide you. I want to seduce you. I want to impress you,'" @bridgerton choreographer @murphy1_jack told me in an interview @dancemagazine. dancemagazine.com/jack-murphy-br…

Adults with a secure attachment style tend to be more positive and confident, and are more likely to form healthy relationships. They tend to embody these four phrases, writes @DrJudyHo @CNBCMakeIt: cnbc.com/2024/04/16/phr…

"We're just some humble species wandering around on the outskirts of a regular galaxy. We're no big deal, yet we can understand it all, and that to me is wonderful and amazing."

"We can predict these events within less than a second, because we understand the mathematics of the universe so well."

"It's vital to realize that you're a part of this much larger whole. The universe is a big deal, and you are not. But being able to realize that is empowering on a level that's hard to describe. It'll change you forever, I'm telling you."

"It gives you tremendous insight into your place in the cosmos. So everybody who has an opportunity to see or experience an eclipse, I believe, should take it. Because this is profound."

"We're celebrating the celestial event because if you think about the profound nature of the discovery that the Earth goes around the sun, that all the planets go around the sun, it changed human history."
