When we're pursuing a big dream, it's scary and uncomfortable. We're living in the unknown everyday. Because of this, we often seek out formulas or easy-to-follow steps, to make the pursuit feel less risky.

But when you're pursuing something extraordinary, you can't take ordinary steps.

This episode is a deep dive into why that's actually awesome and hwo you can use it to your advantage.

This is something I've never spoken about before. I share what consequences you'll experience when you pursue a dream that's close to what you want but not exactly what you want. You'll hear real examples of how it has played out in my life, and why I think it's life-changing to understand.

.....And we're back!

Hello, Season 5. This episode is about dreams that aren't logical—so much so, that it can be hard to find people who support them. 

What do you do when people don't support your vision? Or when people don't believe you can't do it? What do you do when other people's doubts start to make you doubt? I share how I've navigated those obstacles in the past year and a half as I produced my first TV special.

See the pinned post on my Instagram @hollywoodsuccesscoach to watch the trailer for my special!

In this episode, I talk with Amanda Durocher about my new dream that feels totally out of reach, the fears I have about it, and how to achieve it anyway. We also talk about how to know if your dream is fully aligned for you and what to do when things don't work out how you planned.

Super vulnerable episode. Trigger warning: Depression. I cried. It was tough to share, so please listen with a compassionate ear! And if you ever feel the same, please know that you are not alone.

Most of us have been brainwashed by the scarcity narrative in Hollywood. In this episode, I explain what it looks like, how you can see if it's ruling your career, and how it's happening on a major scale right now. And this all leads to why I'm voting NO on the contract ratification for IATSE.

Today I'm talking with editor extraordinaire Zack Arnold (Cobra Kai, Burn Notice, Empire). Zack shares his insights about the culture in Hollywood and how this YES strike authorization vote will be just the beginning of much needed change (and the consequences of voting NO).

Every 3 years our (the people who work in the crew for television and features) contracts are re-negotiated with the AMPTP (Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers). This year, we've asked the AMPTP to stop the abuse with the 14-16 hour days, the lack of proper rest periods, the "new media" contracts, no meal breaks, and unlivable wages. AMPTP basically told us to go f*ck ourselves. Please listen to this important and pressing episode, with a very important vote coming up next week!
