193. Working Actor Life: Commercial Callbacks, Rejection, and the Lack Mentality

Hey there, welcome back to the Working Actor life with Gabrielle Byndloss. We had an amazing conversation where we delved into various topics related to the acting industry. Gabrielle opened up about staying focused and prioritizing what's important in our careers while finding excitement in the process. The ebb and flow of the actor life is REAL. The intense swing between highs and lows is REAL. And you know what else? It's hard as heck to get through alone. So Gabrielle and I walk you through our recent commercial callbacks, why commercials are so important to us, and how we dealt with not booking what we thought were for-sure wins. If you're feeling overwhelmed and looking for camaraderie in the rollercoaster that is will-I-book-this-or-not, this episode is a must-listen. So grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and join me and Gabrielle as we get real about our careers.  Watch the Full Video Podcast Here! 00:00 — Intro 00:10 — Accidental Twinning & Shea Moisture 02:11 — The Actor Workout 06:09 — Callbacks, Script Analysis, and Auditions 11:56 — How Gabrielle Handles Rejection 13:56 — How I Handle Rejection 22:19 — The Happy Medium & Lack Mentality 26:05 — How Commercials Change Your Life Resources Mentioned in This Episode: ★ Follow The Membership on IG @themembership.co ★ Join The Membership ★ Follow Gabrielle on IG @gabriellebyndloss ★ Maggie Szabo ★ Camera Left, Stage Right Commercial Class ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ Want more? Join The Membership & Check out Patreon for bonus episodes!
