🌍 FEATURE: The World’s in Limbo… But You Can’t Afford to Be

If you’re waiting for the world to calm down before you make your move…
You’ll be waiting forever.

Being an actor is challenging at the best of times.

And right now, in 2025? It’s next-level.

We’ve already faced:

•    COVID lockdowns and industry shutdowns

•    Labour strikes

•    Studio mergers and shrinking production budgets

•    AI disrupting casting and creation

•    Tariffs and shifting trade laws

•    Global political unrest

•    Threats of war and economic collapse


There’s a lot to be afraid of.


And most people are stuck in fear.


Stuck in indecision.


Stuck waiting.


But not you...


This is your moment to act boldly when everyone else is frozen.


When the world pauses, leaders rise.


And the world is desperate for leaders who bring courage, love, and light.


That’s why I send this newsletter every week.

 

That’s why I do the podcast.

 

To remind you that you are a lighthouse for others.


Yes, there’s fear out there. For good reason.

 

But there’s also love, beauty, art, joy, and limitless possibility.


And you get to choose which one you’ll amplify.


So I’ll say it simply:


👉 Double down on your courage.

👉 Speak up.

👉 Show up.

👉 Invest in your craft, even when it feels risky.


Now is not the time to shrink.


The world needs your voice. The world needs your art.


Lead with love.


Act with courage.


And while everyone else zigs in fear… you zag into bold action.

 

🎧 NEW PODCAST: Inside the Audition Ep 195

 

EP#195: The Role That Will Outlive You


This episode hits different.


It’s not about audition technique.


It’s about the role you’re already playing in your real life.


After attending a celebration of life for a family friend, I was reminded of a truth too many actors learn too late:


💥 “There’s no callback that can replace a moment that matters with the people you love.”


If you’ve ever felt pressure to say yes out of fear…


If you’ve been chasing gigs at the cost of your relationships or well-being…


If you’ve forgotten that your real life is your lead role…


This is your wake-up call.


Your permission slip.


Your full-body YES.


🎯 You’ll walk away with:


•    A reminder that you’re already the lead of your own story


•    Why acting should support your life, not steal from it


•    How to escape hustle culture for good


•    A vision for a career that fits your actual life, not the other way around


🎬 You are the writer.


🎬 You are the director.


🎬 You are the lead.


So… is the story you’re telling one that you love?
