You're Not the Only One

You're Not the Only One

Before taking a short break for the summer, I'm reflecting on everything this season of Acting On It has meant to me. Through conversations with actors, artists, and creatives, I've been reminded that none of us are alone in our fears, doubts, setbacks, or dreams. This episode is a thank-you to every guest who showed up authentically, every listener who joined the conversation, and the community we've built together through honesty and vulnerability. I'll be back in the fall with a brand-new season. Until then, thank you for being here. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

From Venezuela to New York- When you just know

In this episode, Betty and I talk about the powerful feeling of just knowing—knowing who you are, what you’re meant to do, and where life is pulling you before it arrives. Betty shares how she always knew she would move to New York and how that certainty stayed with her through every chapter of the journey. We also talk about the internal challenges that come with pursuing that path—anxiety, self-image, fear, and doing the work to move through those struggles in order to feel free in yourself and in your art. A beautiful conversation about trusting your instincts, facing your inner battles, and giving yourself permission to fully take up space. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

The Quiet Seasons of Acting

In this solo episode of Acting On It, I talk honestly about one of the hardest parts of pursuing acting: the long stretches in between opportunities. The quiet seasons. The survival jobs. The feeling of watching everyone else move forward while you feel completely stuck. I open up about burnout, losing motivation, feeling disconnected from acting, and the guilt that comes from thinking you should be “doing more” every second of the day. But I also talk about something I’m finally starting to understand: sometimes stepping away, living life, and allowing yourself to be human is exactly what brings you back to your craft. If you’ve ever questioned your path, felt invisible, or wondered if you’re falling behind — this episode is for you. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Learning Life Through Theater

In this episode of Acting On It, I sit down with actor and performer Justin Wooster for a conversation that goes far beyond just acting. We talk a lot about life circumstances that force you to grow up quickly, take on responsibility early, and figure things out as you go. Justin opens up about how theater became more than just performing — it became a way to understand real-life emotions, relationships, and lessons about himself. We also dive into the reality of continuing to pursue theater even though it isn’t always the most stable career path, and what it means to stick with something purely for the love of the craft. And of course… plenty of chaotic banter along the way ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

What If No One Ever Cared?

What if the thing holding you back… isn’t real? In this episode, I talk about the fear of being judged — and how it can quietly stop us from going after what we actually want. The opinions, the imagined criticism, the pressure to be seen a certain way. But the real question is: what happens if you let that fear win? What if 10 or 20 years pass, and you realize no one was paying as much attention as you thought… and you never went for it? ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
