WACO, Texas, Nov. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — While many aspiring actors wait tables in Hollywood while auditioning and hoping for their big break, Tehya Johns, now Tehya Anz, went the opposite way. She left a successful acting career and a life where she appeared to have it all for something she finds far more rewarding: a real life, surrounded by real people, sharing real love. And for now, a job where she waits tables with joy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I was 17, I decided to make a name for myself,\u201d said Tehya. \u201cI wanted to be someone noticed. I wanted acceptance, I wanted attention and ultimately my own glory.\u201d<\/p>\n

A talented dancer with big dreams drawn by the shiny lure of success, Tehya worked hard and made things happen. She attended a liberal arts university in Philadelphia, moved to Miami, and landed a top spot in an international luxury car commercial. But she quickly found herself on a path she described as a downward spiral into darkness. She left Miami for Hollywood, and despite finding success in TV shows, movies, commercials, and fashion modeling, she felt empty.<\/p>\n

She sold the dream but wasn\u2019t buying it herself. In one video, she proclaimed, \u201cSometimes when I\u2019m having a bad day, I will just put more makeup on my face and it\u2019s almost like my problems go away\u2026 just like living my best life.\u201d But the shiny rewards of Hollywood \u2013 money, fame, cool nightclubs, fancy restaurants \u2013 left her lonely. A visit to Homestead Heritage changed everything.<\/p>\n

\u201cA friend invited me and I didn’t really want to go. I said I had other plans but decided to make the trip anyway,\u201d said Tehya. \u201cIt changed the direction of my life. I experienced light and love and the reality and the presence of God. It was a supernatural experience, a second chance at life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Today, diners at Caf\u00e9 Homestead are greeted by Tehya\u2019s warm smile. At Homestead Heritage, she found a new home and found a soulmate who is now her husband. Together, their life is rich with faith, friends, and a future family \u2013 a joyful life with real meaning that Hollywood fame and fortune could never provide. Her journey through darkness led her to lightness and love.<\/p>\n

Tehya, the team at Caf\u00e9 Homestead, and the artisans of Homestead Heritage invite guests to visit, dine, and participate in classes available year-round, Monday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Homestead Craft Village located north of Waco, a few minutes off the interstate, or to make plans to visit Homestead Heritage’s 37th Annual Homestead Fair, open from November 29 through Dec. 1, followed by two weekends of the Homestead Holiday Market, December 7 and 14.<\/p>\n
