One Broke Actress

Season 8 is FINALLY on its way!! We have so many exciting things in store for this season that I am so glad to finally be sharing it with you all. We are shaking things up this time and have lots of changes coming your way. Instead of our usual 12 episodes that have a 1 hour+ episode structure with guests, this season I wanted to sit down and talk to you one-on-one. These new-and-improved Solo Sam episodes will be way shorter in length and let me chat with you about everything that's on my mind about the entertainment industry, what I've learned recently, and we will even have some Q&A's to answer whatever questions you have. We will also have professional guests that are not actors but still have things to share with the rest of us about the industry. But fear not!! We will still have plenty of acting guests in the season and long episodes, they just won't be the only thing to look forward to. As always, thanks for listening to the One Broke Actress podcast and I cannot wait to share everything that we have in store! -------- Want more?

Today’s episode wraps our New Normal mini-series. When I started this series I had no idea where we would be in a few months. Of course, I hoped we’d be a little further from constant COVID panic but…here we are. I decided to take this last episode solo to add my thoughts and feelings on where we’re at, where we’ve been, and my hopes for what’s to come. I hope you guys enjoy it! PS- if you like these short-form solo episodes please let me know, I am considering keeping them in the mix for season 8! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/one-broke-actress-podcast/message

Miata is the queen of creative's money happiness! She was on the podcast way back in season 3 (check it here!) and today we're going to talk actor-finances post-pandemic! I ask... In 2021 what are some realities you see creatives bumping up against? Are there some things, we can do to get our finances under control after the last year? What can we do to better prepare for this kind of random occurrence in the future? Covid changed the landscape of 1099-gig workers, it changed a lot of the creative world and brought us into the light (maybe showed the cracks in the capitalist foundation) do you think there will be some changes for the better?
