Checking In With… Come From Away Star De Lon Grant

What is your typical day like now? Things are a little looser for me these days, but I have tried, with moderate success, to establish a bit of a morning routine to make sure I feel some structure and forward momentum in my life. My mornings are filled with catching up on the news, reading, any cleaning I need to do around the apartment.

I typically transition into the afternoon with a walk to Prospect Park in Brooklyn or any errands I need to run. As the weather changes, Iâm getting a lot better about working out, so later afternoon I usually take a short run or do an in-home workout. Catching up on phone calls or Zooms have been slated for my evenings, along with a bit of evening news. I close my days out with whatever show I happen to be bingeing at the time.
