“I won't teach you how to act.
I'll remind you how to be.” Jo
And we believe the best way to understand that, is to hear from actors who work with us;-)

For over 20 years, I've guided thousands of actors, directors, and artists worldwide, both professional and beginner, just like you, to undo all social and emotional conditioning so that they can be reminded how to BE (and not act) in full authenticity and freedom, to land the roles they actually want.
When I began acting, I noticed it was very hard to access my true potential, a challenge all the actors I knew were facing. All the acting classes I took avoided this issue by feeding me mathematical approaches, techniques, and "foolproof" success recipes.
So, I decided to research the matter of instinct and eventually succeeded in resetting my instrument to its original state: FREEDOM & AUTHENTICITY. This led to immediate and fulfilling work.
​
This path led me to create The Reset Journey, offered through a gift economy on a pay-what-you-can basis—a model built on trust, generosity, and shared responsibility. There are no sales funnels or gimmicks, just a shared belief that truth should never be blocked by a price tag. You contribute what feels right for you, and your support helps make this work accessible for others.

“One of the biggest things that separates Jo from other teachers is she doesn't try to impose a voice on you. She provides you with the space and the tools to find and cultivate your own voice, which is unique from any other.
Working with Jo has been invaluable, for both my growth as an actor and as a person. I would recommend her to anyone who is done trying to be anything other than exactly who they are, in all their glory."
To Be Or Not To Act exists to undo all social and emotional conditioning so that artists & other high level performers can be reminded of their true, free and full nature. They can then in turn feel fulfilled and impact their audience meaningfully.
