Spiritual Sara was guided to her artistic career by following her heart…but that doesn’t mean it’s always been easy. With 16 years in the industry and great credits, she still found herself sending countless emails to potential reps, and something energetically just wasn’t working. After she got clarity on who she was and what she was offering (instead of just asking for) she took 15 rep meetings that left her beyond excited.
Today she shares the work she did to get there AND gets super vulnerable about picking between several great matches (hint- this was a TOUGH choice). Brian helps coach her into making a decision but also shares why it doesn’t have to be the “right” decision.
CLOSER LOOK & TAKEAWAYS
- How credits and experience can also come with an ego
- Find an abundance mindset- how her success in this doesn’t diminish anyone else’s
- worthiness
- How her referrals never worked previously and yet she got meetings with the exact same reps through her own emails instead!
- How to anticipate getting No’s so you don’t get overwhelmed (and they don’t suck the fun out of the process… yes, fun!).
- Plus some coaching and meditation work from Brian on making tough choices, don’t miss the end!
With this series, actors I’m talking to you: I believe that acting is your calling and your purpose on the planet. You use your voice, and your body, and all that you are, to tell stories that remind US what it is to be human. You have the power to change lives.
And, we all know that having great representation makes that impact all that much more possible.
But let’s not get it twisted – looking for an agent or a manager sucks. It’s not straightforward, there are tons of people telling you the best-slash-only ways to do it, and it can leave you in a constant state of anxiety thinking to yourself – is this ever going to happen for me?
And that’s why in this series of tell-all interviews with my agent goals students – you’ll hear how they did it.
REMINDER: Each of these bonus episodes is very different because each of these actors wants different things from their careers: some want to be on Broadway, others have their sights set on tv and film, and still others are creators and want to land reps that are excited by that.
