Episode notes

Being an actor is tough and there’s so many questions about what it takes to be an actor. How do you have a successful acting career? Do you need botox? How do you conquer imposter syndrome as an actor? I answer all these questions and more in our new No Stupid Questions series. Ask me anything and everything and I will answer to the best of my ability. In this episode, I share honest, practical advice on topics such as asking for referrals, using AI or ChatGPT for cover letters, managing credit card debt, and understanding the importance of authenticity in acting. And yeah, we’re getting into Botox and fillers in the industry, whether or not Hollywood is a cult, why we need to manage expectations in an acting career, and the realities of moving to Los Angeles. Got more questions? Leave a comment!
