S2 Ep 35S2 035: Jenn Lyon — F*%k that Noise!
EJenn Lyon not only talks about her courageous choices professionally (like being a reader for a Broadway show and then boldly asking to audition for the lead), but also about her personal struggle with anorexia and bulimia, and how living a life of service helps her keep it all in perspective. From her guest star on Justified that turned into a multiple season arc, to her show-stopping turn as Finna in CLAWS, Jenn is a stunning example of an artist in her power. And today she shares with us exactly how she got that way. Jenn has had quite a journey in life and is no doubt using that road traveled to help inspire others. For years she struggled with an eating disorder that came close to ending her life, and thanks to the Renfrew Center in NYC was able to get the treatment she needed. Jenn is showing other women that it's okay to take up space (we're not all a size 2), and it's okay to have a voice and to use it. It's all about being healthy.

WEDNESDAY WISDOM: Holiday Break — with Alyshia Ochse
bonusEIt is THAT time a year again! The industry is notoriously more quiet this time of year but with Covid rearing its ugly head there hasn't been a lot of activity to satiate our artist minds and pockets. What can we possibly focus on that seems somewhat in our control and still puts focus on furthering our careers? Today, I give a perspective shift on what we can give attention to that will enhance our experience when the industry comes back in 2021.

S2 Ep 34S2 034: Jack Huston — Falling Back in Love with the Craft
EToday's guest comes from a long line of award-winning actors in Hollywood with family members that include household names such as Anjelica and Danny Huston. Even so, actor Jack Huston has worked tirelessly over the years to forge his own unique career path and to find his own success. Jack grew up in London, England and came from a theater educational background. Upon moving to America, Jack realized that he still had a lot to learn about the difference in skill sets between theater and film acting. While many believe that those who are born into the entertainment industry have a leg up on all the rest of us, Jack speaks honestly and vulnerably about the 7 years he spent in Los Angeles broke and out of work. After 7 years of struggle, Jack had to bravely admit to himself that he was no longer feeling the love for the profession that he once had, and made the decision to leave acting for the time being to travel, live abroad, and reassess what was truly important to him. Today, Jack discusses how fighting for an audition for a character he was not selected to read for, was what turned things around for him and pushed him to continue in his craft. From his work on Fargo, to Boardwalk Empire, The Irishman, Antebellum, Ben-Hur, Manhunt, and many more, today's discussion includes a rare level of honesty as Jack shares valuable insight on everything from technique, to the business, as well as something that's often less talked about.. the value of taking a break when you feel yourself falling out of love with the industry.

S2 Ep 33S2 033: Aaron Lazar — Climbing the Ladder & Coming Full Circle
EWe're chatting with Broadway star and series regular on Fox's "Filthy Rich": Aaron Lazar. Aaron worked his way through every aspect of this industry—film, TV, theatre—with the same tenacity that almost led him to become a surgeon. But instead of never sleeping in medical school, he chose the city that never sleeps. 11 Broadway productions later (including "The Phantom of the Opera," "A Little Night Music," and "Dear Evan Hansen), plus acclaimed films such as "J.Edgar," "The Wolf of Wall Street," not to mention roles on hit TV shows such as "Quantico," "The Blacklist," and "Blue Bloods," he's garnered an authenticity that helps him define and believe in himself as an artist. Aaron shares what he's learned on each step of the ladder: how becoming a father shifted his attitude towards the work and how improvising with Leonardo DiCaprio led to some movie magic. He's a great example of someone who works hard and stays open to learning on the job, whether that's performing 8 live shows a week, working 15 hours a day on set, or navigating life in between. There's no business like show business, and he'll tell you it's so.

S2 Ep 32S2 032: Josh Pais — Inner Energy Patterns and Surrendering to the Unknown
EToday, I sit down with actor, writer, director and prominent acting coach, Josh Pais. Having had a successful, decades long career, Josh credits his approach to the craft to his parents. His mother, a creative free spirit and his father, a theoretical physicist, lead Josh to a method of training that uses physicality to get to a space of spontaneity in his art, a method that he compares to what it feels like to "play in a laboratory." This discovery led him to founding the Committed Impulse actor training program which has provided both industry stars, as well as those just starting out, with the tools to overcome fear and create truthful, in the moment performances with a method he calls "inner atomics" which recognizes emotions simply as energy patterns in our bodies. Josh teaches that true artistic creation cannot exist without bravely stepping into the unknown, a mantra he himself uses every time he steps into a scene. He also shares what teaching has taught him about his own work both in front and behind the camera by discussing his passion for storytelling through the making of his own documentary over the course of 10 years. His extensive list of credits includes roles in Showtimes' Ray Donovan, HBO's Mrs. Fletcher, Netflix's Maniac, NBC's Law and Order, TV Land's Younger, as well as the major box office success film, Joker. Josh acknowledges that what we do as storytellers can be both scary and vulnerable, but teaches that standing confidently in our own truth, is also the greatest gift that we as performers can give.

S2 Ep 31S2 031: Kathleen Rose Perkins — Longevity: Learning to Pivot as Storytellers
EToday's guest embodies what it means to be a versatile and creative storyteller. Actor, writer, and producer, Kathleen Rose Perkins, has had an expansive career that has led her to varied roles in both comedy and drama in the world of film and television. Today, she walks us through the lulls as well as the highs of her journey starting from what she learned doing background work in Los Angeles, to what it was like to be fired from a job...more than once, to taking creative control of her career and writing the stories that she wants to tell without having to rely on anyone else to do it for her. Kathleen knows what it's like to struggle to find representation that feels like a good fit. Early on, she felt the urge to give up when only receiving a few auditions a year. Now, having found a manager that's been with her from the start, she emphasizes how important it is to communicate with your reps about exactly what it is you want out of your career. Over the years, she's appeared in over 70 projects including Netflix's I Am Not Okay with This , Showtime's Episodes , NCIS: Los Angeles , ABC's Fresh Off the Boat , USA's Colony , and films such as The Skeleton Twins opposite Kristen Wiig, Gone Girl opposite Ben Affleck, and many more. Today, she shares her wisdom and knowledge about how she works through audition anxiety, her methods for preparing for a big emotional scene, and most of all, how she makes sure she's always busy working.

S2 Ep 29S2 029: Scoot McNairy — Lessons Over Time
EIn today's episode we're chatting with Scoot McNairy. Here's a storyteller who's genuinely humble and genuinely extraordinary. He's an award winning actor and a producer. He's worked on numerous award-winning films such as "Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood," "Gone Girl," "12 Years a Slave," "Argo," and "Killing Them Softly." He's starred in critically acclaimed series such as "Narcos: Mexico," "Godless," and "Halt and Catch Fire." The list of legendary directors he's worked with will blow your mind. Steve McQueen, Quentin Tarantino, and Gus Van Sant to name a few. Scoot's own story begins in Texas as a kid who was fascinated by how movies were made. Dozens of commercials, TV shows, independent projects, and major studio films later, his fascination for the process of filmmaking has only deepened. But he's also someone who admits there are things he loves doing just as much as acting and there are times when he's left the industry to explore them. He's candid about the working relationships and friendships that have impacted his career. You'll hear what Academy Award, Golden Globe, and Emmy winning actor has inspired him the most. And you'll see how everyone's process coming to the craft is unique—it's important to build your own bag of tricks.

S2 Ep 28S2 028: Eric Ladin — The Power of Letting Go & Rolling the Dice
EToday's guest is the awe-inspiring, spectacular Eric Ladin. You might know him from The Killing, Boardwalk Empire, or Generation Kill because his moments onscreen are unforgettable. He talks about the evolution of his identity and how he learned to reconcile the way he saw himself with the way Hollywood saw him to lean into type and unleash his potential. He's candid about the pressure he put on himself after graduating from drama school and his obsession with over-preparing. And it wasn't until a pizza party celebrating his decision to quit acting when he finally learned to release control. He's proof when you learn to let go, people start calling. He also recounts the amazing story of booking The Killing and how he had to follow his gut, turning down another opportunity, which ultimately paid off and showed him the power of trusting when to say yes or no. From booking nothing after 103 auditions to turning a three-episode recurring role into an HBO series regular, Eric tells it all. And even spills what it was like working with Clint Eastwood and Bradley Cooper. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Eric Ladin right here.

WEDNESDAY WISDOM: NO Small Parts — with Alyshia Ochse
bonusEWe are in control of how much space we inhabit as a character and how much gratitude we express in our art. If you are stuck in a level in your artistry this might give you a different idea about turning that frustration into productivity. Take up space with your characters mind, story and life lived. Today, I remind you of all the parts that started "small" but were inhabited with a life lived. And those "small" parts grew. The growth came from the attention put on specificity and creating a larger life than what is expected.

As a member of the IAMA Theatre Company in Los Angeles, we'll hear Scott emphasize the importance of what he calls, "Tribe Vibe Mentality" and getting involved in a creative, supportive community for the purpose of collaboration and the beautiful opportunities that unfold as a result of being of service to your fellow artists. Today, Brandon is candidly honest about his struggles with anxiety, insecurity, and even his dislike of memorizing lines! He shares how he continues to work through these feelings and how asking the question of whether this is truly what he wants to do with his life, always allows him to connect back to his "why" and his purpose for creating. Today, we'll hear everything from the ultimatum Scott set for himself if he didn't get into Tisch School of the Arts, to his audition story for Grey's Anatomy with noted casting director Linda Lowy, to how he uses song in his preparation to help him find those hidden moments between the lines.

S2 Ep 25S2 025: Selenis Leyva — Leaving a Footprint: No One Can Tell You It's "Not For You"
EActress, author, and activist, Selenis Leyva believes that the desire to perform is something that you're born with, a passion that lies within your genes. Born in the Bronx, it was clear from the start that Selenis had a thirst for learning the craft when at age 14, she asked to use the school auditorium to create a drama class for herself and a group of her fellow classmates. Today, she recalls a defining moment in her youth where she was told that her dream of pursuing education in the arts was "not for you" and how this pivotal moment gave her the motivation to go forward with the mindset of "Just watch me." Selenis captivated audiences with her riveting and layered performance as Gloria Mendoza in Netflix's hit show, "Orange is the New Black." What started as a dayplayer role that her agent advised her to pass on, became a fully fledged character she created off of a breakdown that simply read, "Gloria Mendoza, Latina." Today, we'll hear about her journey navigating an industry where Selenis recognized a lack of Latinx representation on screen and how that was reflected early on in her career in the types of roles she was called in for. Over the course of her 20 year career, Selenis has continued to challenge the idea of what others labeled as "not for you" and has used her platform to shine a light on the stories of others who are often excluded from the table. She has achieved this not only on screen, but also through the publishing of a book co written with her sister, Marizol Leyva, titled, "My Sister: How One Sibling's Transition Changed Us Both." Selenis has a kindness and self confidence that radiates to those around her when sharing advice for up and coming actors. Above all else, she emphasizes the importance of believing in yourself. With self respect and self love, she says, that's all that's needed to want the best for yourself and to settle for nothing less.

EToday's guest is the one and only Noomi Rapace. She's an actress and a producer. A shatterer of limiting beliefs. She achieved international fame originating the role of Lisbeth Salander in the Swedish adaptation of the Millennium Series: "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," "The Girl Who Played with Fire," and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest." This woman digs into the mind, body, and soul of every character she plays. Just watch her portray septuplets in "What Happened to Monday." It's masterful. And from the beginning of her career in Sweden, she's taken a unique approach to auditioning that might unravel some of your ideas about this industry. Noomi's worked with everyone from Guy Ritchie's in "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows," to Ridley Scott in "Prometheus," to Tom Hardy in "Child 44," to John Krasinski in "Jack Ryan." She opens up about producing and starring in her latest film, "The Secrets We Keep," and shares how much she enjoys peeling back the layers of truth in her own life and in the stories she tells. Her career is an example of the depths you can go when you master your fears, and the connections that unfold when you create the work you want to create.

S2 Ep 23S2 023: Paul Greene — The Secret's in the Love
E"If you can see it, you can move it." One night, as a teenager living on a farm in Canada, Paul Greene dreamed he was working on a movie set. He had never seen one before. Now as an actor, musician, writer, director, and producer, Paul has worked on the sets of countless films and series. He's been dubbed the Cary Grant of the Hallmark Channel. And today, we're diving into the stories of how he got there. Paul didn't work as an actor in the beginning. He traveled the world as a model spending most of his 20s working for brands like Dolce & Gabbana and Tommy Hilfiger. Paul shares how spiritually and financially grounding this time was for him but also how the dream of storytelling never left him. At 30, and with a 5-month-old son, he set out to manifest that dream. Many commercials, series regular and guest spots on dozens of TV shows including NCIS, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, The Newsroom, Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce, and Bitten, as well as 9 Hallmark Films later, you could say it's manifest. He currently stars as Dr. Carson Shepherd in the Hallmark hit series When Calls the Heart. Last year he released a new album called Freedom for your Soul. And on Father's Day 2021, he's releasing a book, 52 ways to be the Dad you wish you had. This man is always creating. And in a powerful way, it's thanks to his son and Paul's never-ending mission of having his life be a contribution to others.

WEDNESDAY WISDOM: Breathwork — with Robin Solo and Alyshia Ochse
bonusEBreathwork is the bridge to spirit, takes us into other realms, heals our body of trauma, regulates our para sympathetic system (nerves/fear) and connects us to our voice. Today, Robin Solo joins Wednesday Wisdom to give insight about how Breathwork will help strengthen your instrument. Tension is restrictive to breathing freely and deeply. A person free of stress will be calmer and better able to concentrate and connect to what they are saying in an open way. Our breath changes with our emotions so if you are free of stress anxiety, tension, fear, etc…you'll be more present in your voice and body. If you are not breathing deeply and freely your voice, which is fueled by the breath, may sound weak and breathy without enough energy to project. This breath practice physiologically strengthens our lungs, lung capacity and endurance. Also if you are someone who has limiting beliefs or trauma around using your voice - for example you were told to be quiet, you felt not seen or heard because you felt no one was listening to you or taking you seriously - this practice can help you let go of that trauma and support you in speaking your truth. It can support you in speaking up and taking your power back in opening your throat chakra giving you more confidence to feel and express emotions through your voice.

She discusses how befriending Robert Altman as an extra on his set inspired her to pursue an acting career and make the move from Texas to LA.

Sarah keeps it real, opening up about what it's like to film sex scenes and even begin lactating mid-audition.

S2 Ep 20S2 020: Cameron Britton — The Freedom in Getting it Wrong
EOur guest today is Canadian born actor Cameron Britton. He's best known for his captivating and dynamic portrayal of serial killer Ed Kemper on Netflix's series Mindhunter which earned him a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series. His recent credits include the crime thriller The Girl in the Spider's Web and Netflix's The Umbrella Academy. You can also catch him in Discovery Channel's new series Manhunt alongside other such memorable talents as Paul Bettany and Judith Light. Cameron says himself that he doesn't like acting often, doesn't go after the money, and only takes roles he's invested in. He says "no" all the time. "No," he believes, is the most powerful word in an actor's vocabulary. But before that, he said "yes" to everything. He honed his craft at AMDA and doing theatre around Los Angeles where he felt safe to experiment. His stories may save you from vomiting in a lobby, help you get to the heart of a character's actions, and may even help you nail that next agent meeting. By the way, Cameron *loves* doing self-tapes and offers a few pointers on why you could love them too.

Inspired in his early years by Moe of The Three Stooges, Chris knew he wanted to be an actor from the age of 9.

BONUS: David Jolliffe, Sean Astin & Shaan Sharma — Get Out the No Campaign: A SAG-AFTRA Panel Discussion
bonusEWednesday, July 22nd, 2020, SAG-AFTRA members will be voting either "Yes" or "No" on the proposed 2020 TV/Theatrical Contract. While the SAG-AFTRA National Board has been pushing for a "Yes" vote from members, today's guests will discuss the ways in which they feel the union has failed to disclose the whole story and exactly what this contract will mean for performers in the entertainment industry moving forward. In our current COVID-19 world, the need for performers has only increased as people turn to film and television for relief during an ongoing global health pandemic. Today, I sit down with actors and longtime SAG-AFTRA members, David Jolliffe, Sean Astin, and Shaan Sharma as they discuss the intricacies of the contract and how it lead to the development of the "Get Out the No" campaign in an effort to educate voters about the various ways in which the contract will affect performers in terms of income and residual payments, health and pension considerations, on set safety provisions and much more. With so much still unknown as to when the film industry will reopen and resume work, today's conversation is an important one. It brings into question how we as actors can continue to make a living as performers from the early stages of our careers, to well into our older years. Today's guests are advocating for union members to be given what they deserve as valued members of the industry and ask us to consider the question, "At what point do you finally say no?"

He shares how blind persistence landed him his first agent, and how a secret injury helped him create one of his most recognizable roles. For Ben, perspective and perseverance is key. Moving through the peaks and valleys of this industry requires trusting what you have to offer and choosing to be empowered regardless of circumstance. And that's exactly what Ben continues to do. His work includes an array of diverse film and TV credits such as Easy Virtue, By The Gun, Seventh Son, Big Wedding, Sons of Liberty, The Punisher, Gold Digger and a lead role on Netflix's soon to be series Shadow and Bone.

Mireille Enos talks with us today about her journey and the major signs the universe was giving her along the way indicating a big YES to whether or not she was on the right path. Starting with winning the Irene Ryan Acting Scholarship, an award annually presented to the nation's top collegiate actor, she went on to spend 10 years in New York City gaining confidence and experience as well as a Broadway Tony nomination for her portrayal of "Honey" in Edward Albee 's "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" In addition to stage credits, she went on to work in both film and television and gained critical acclaim for her lead role of detective Sarah Linden in AMC's crime drama, The Killing. She can currently be seen playing the role of Marissa Wiegler in the Amazon original series, Hanna . Today, Mireille shares her wealth of knowledge and experience from how she knows when a role is meant for her, to the importance of switching from artist brain to business brain when considering agency representation, and of course, what it was like to chemistry read with Brad Pitt.

WEDNESDAY WISDOM: Depression — with Alyshia Ochse
bonusE"I am bent, but not broken. I am scarred, but not disfigured. I am sad, but not hopeless. I am tired, but not powerless. I am angry, but not bitter. I am depressed, but not giving up." Giving up when you have a mental illness like depression sounds attractive in your darkest moments. Today we discuss all feelings and allowing them to be part of the conversation. As an artist, you must understand and experience all emotions/feelings without judgement. Oge Egbuonu discussed in the previous episode "I don't label depression as a bad thing for me. For me, those are all moments of redirection." If you are struggling with mental health or suicidal thoughts please see the FREE help that is available at ActorsFund.org.

S2 Ep 11S2 011: Oge Egbuonu — (In)Visible Portraits: Love Letter to Black Women, and a Re-Education to Everyone Else
EToday we're sitting down with Oge Egbuonu. She's a director, writer, producer—a storyteller. A voice that's piercing the veil of what history has shown a Black woman's experience in America to be. Her directorial debut, (In)Visible Portraits, was just released on Juneteenth. It's a Think Piece, a self-described "love letter to Black women, and a re-education to everyone else." Oge shares how she found herself in the middle of creating this film, aware of its bigger purpose in being a vehicle for people to start questioning what they were taught to believe as true. Her journey to becoming a filmmaker is beautifully unconventional—from working in a hotel, to discovering a calling in teaching yoga, to accepting an unexpected job at Raindog Films where she helped bring to life Eye in the Skye (starring Helen Mirren and Alan Rickman) and the award-winning film Loving (starring Ruth Negga and Joel Edgerton). Each plot twist of her story shows a divine calling and a desire to be a vessel of service. Oge reminds us that we're in a collective space of reimagining what's possible, and that is the most powerful place we can be in right now.

WEDNESDAY WISDOM: Reframing — with Nyaling Marenah & Alyshia Ochse
EThis Wednesday Wisdom is not going to be a monologue but a dialogue (with actress Nyaling Marenah) to help understand, forgive and give rise to a new language and awareness when addressing selection/casting in our industry. "They went diverse/ethnic..." how many times has this explanation been given for not getting the part? This podcast exists so we could learn, share, listen and understand the path of another. Today we are going to hear why that statement is hurtful and only doing harm in bringing someone else's value down. Let's reframe our words and belief system so that we can respect each others value as a storyteller. #sharethemic LINKS: Please subscribe to That One Audition on Apple Podcasts and follow us on social media: INSTAGRAM: @nyalingm SELF-TAPE TO BOOKING: Audition Process Post-Quarantine STORY SCHOOL: Because you have a story to tell and the world needs to hear it.

S2 Ep 10S2 010: Jasmine Cephas Jones — Art Is Not Made In Safety
EToday I sit down with television and film actress, Broadway star, and singer-songwriter, Jasmine Cephas Jones. Introduced into the world of entertainment by her father, actor Ron Cephas Jones, and her mother, jazz singer Kim Lesley, Jasmine went to school for the performing arts starting in middle school . She spent many years studying voice at LaGuardia High School in New York City as well as throughout her college years at Berklee College of Music. Today, Jasmine shares the feelings of vulnerability that came soon after where she felt something was missing and was unsure about exactly what kind of career she wanted to pursue. When she realized the missing link she had been searching for was acting, Jasmine immediately committed to studying the craft through experience with the LABrinth Theater Company and training in the Meisner teachings of the Neighborhood Playhouse for Theater. She shares her experiences with the peaks and valleys of the business, from being dropped by an agent, to landing the roles of Peggy Schuyler and Maria Reynolds in the Tony award winning Broadway hit musical, Hamilton. Even after conquering the world of Broadway, Jasmine ventured out to Los Angeles where she reveals she felt as if she was starting from scratch, grinding all over again to prove herself in the business of show business. While she admits to having moments of wanting to give up, Jasmine shares the mindsets she's carried with her over the years to help keep her moving through those moments of uncertainty. The belief she has in herself has earned her an extensive list of credits including roles on, HBO's "Girls" and "Mrs. Fletcher", as well as roles in films such as "Blindspotting", "The Photograph", "Monsters and Men" and can currently be seen on Quibi's newly released, "#FreeRayShawn". If you're looking for tips, be sure to take notes as Jasmine reveals details about her own process for creating riveting characters that light up the screen.

S2 Ep 9S2 009: James Badge Dale — Perfect is Boring: Winning with Your Imperfections // Lessons in Long-term Relationships With Yourself, Your Art, and Your Team
EToday's guest is a big believer in second chances. You may recognize him as Detective Ray Abruzzo in the brand new Starz's series High Town, or from AMC's Rubicon, or maybe the award-winning mini-series The Pacific. James Badge Dale is an actor who's worked through the high and low levels of this game, turning him into an endlessly interesting, authentic, and raw storyteller. He's truly an example of how rewarding it is to give your craft those 10, 000 hours and to never give up. This man holds his own working alongside collaborators such as Scorsese, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, Jeff Bridges, and Robin Wright to name just a few. You'll hear how he learned to tune into his own instrument, and how he deals with that enigmatic audition room chair.

S2 Ep 8S2 008: Michael Urie — Why You Should Ask For What You Want
EIn today's episode, we're chatting with actor, director, producer, and host Michael Urie whose early desire to become a drama teacher carved an unexpected path to his breakout role in ABC's UGLY BETTY. From growing up in Texas, making movies with G.I. Joes, to winning the John Housman Award at Julliard, his journey shows tenacity, trust, and uncanny comedic instinct. In this episode, he shares the pivotal moments that moved his career forward, moments when he trusted his gut and asked for what he wanted. We chat about his love for theater and New York—how throughout his almost 20 year career (which includes television credits such as YOUNGER, PARTNERS, THE GOOD WIFE, THE GOOD FIGHT, MODERN FAMILY, and the upcoming CBS & WARNER BROS TV sitcom FUN) he's stayed as close to the stage as he possibly can. It was theater that encouraged him to stand bravely in his truth, and it was the smell of hot garbage on 8th Avenue in the summer that told him 'this is where I want to be.'"

WEDNESDAY WISDOM: Investment In Life — with Alyshia Ochse
bonusE"The key to being an actor is to make sure you remember live." - Peter Hall The privilege of speaking to Rebecca Hall yesterday allowed me to peak into a world in which what you "do" doesn't represent you. Living your life gives breath, perspective and insight into "what you do". Acting is just one facet of what you do in living. Living will infuse so much of your art. Stop waiting to live your life while you wait for your craft to be validated with a result of a certain status as an artist. Live your life so you can redefine (or define) who you are as an artist.

S2 Ep 6S2 006: Rebcca Hall — Do Good Work, The Rest Will Follow: Tales from a Limitless Artist
EToday's guest has been around the arts her entire life. She is the acclaimed and generously creative British actor, writer, director and producer Rebecca Hall. Many of us first saw her in Christopher Nolan's The Prestige and soon after starring in Woody Allen's Vicky Cristina Barcelona. Rebecca witnessed early on what an artist's life could be. Her first on screen appearance was in the TV mini-series The Camomile Lawn at the age of 10. It was also around this time that her father (celebrated stage director Peter Hall) gave her some advice: the key to being an actor is making sure that you remember to live! She talks about her time at University and finding success on stage before appearing on screen again. After The Prestige, Rebecca continued on to a truly incredible career that's lead to multiple awards and critical recognition. Her work includes The Red Riding Triology, The Town, Parade's End, Iron Man 3, Transcendence The Awakening, Frost/Nixon, The Gift, Christine, and Tales from the Loop. Later this year you can watch her in Godzilla vs. Kong. She's a master craftswoman. From sketching actors in the back of her father's stage rehearsals to directing her own projects, you'll hear the stories of how Rebecca pushes beyond expectations to create the art and life that she wants to express. For Rebecca, it all comes back to the work. For exclusive content surrounding this and all podcast episodes, sign up for our amazing newsletter at AlyshiaOchse.com.

WEDNESDAY WISDOM: Caitlin Crosby — with Alyshia Ochse
bonusEActress, singer, songwriter and entrepreneur Caitlin Crosby knows a thing or two about inspiring others. She began writing songs with Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds in high school and subsequently signed to his label, Arista Records. Growing up in Hollywood and working in the entertainment industry inspired Caitlin to launch the campaign LoveYourFlawz to support those dealing with body image issues, with the release of debut album "Flawz" in 2009 through Blackledge/Atlantic Records. While on tour, Caitlin started The Giving Keys which employs those transitioning out of homelessness to make jewelry out of repurposed keys. Each key is engraved with a message like FEARLESS, HOPE, STRENGTH or COURAGE. When the wearer of the key encounters someone else who needs the message - they are encouraged to give it away and share their "pay it forward" story.
