This episode, I'm joined by a room of child actors and their parents at the Brighton Talks: Seminars for Young Performers. I know that social media and talking to other parents in the waiting room can make it seem like everyone else has it all together, but it's not true! Listen to this Q&A, where I explain how to remain positive and realistic about your child's career when they're facing competition and rejection.

The more time you sit on the idea of wanting to start instead of taking action, the harder it gets! Think of this episode as your blueprint for this business. It can get so frustrating scrolling through tons of google articles just looking for some SOLID advice on this industry and how to get started. That's what this podcast is all about; I want you to have somewhere to go and learn from someone you trust who KNOWS this business.

This episode is a bit of a rant! It's full of all the things that I wish someone told me at the beginning of my journey. I dig deep into understanding why hearing "no" is a good thing, and how not letting the rejection tear you down is essential to our happiness and success in life.

Listen, the hard truth is, part of being an actor is being a public figure, and I know it can be tough to stay relevant in this social media driven world that we live in. We can feel like we have to constantly be showing all of our wins and the newest thing we're doing. In this episode, I'm here to help you decide what IS and what is NOT appropriate to share on social media and give you a few tips on the difference between sharing and bragging.
