You might be just starting out with background work and you’re excited to get more meatier roles or maybe you’re further along but you’re ready for juicer parts that have an impact on the story. It can feel frustrating and you might feel stuck with how to level up.
It might be annoying if you don’t know how to get there. When you watch my training below we will look at why that is happening...
I usually see actors doing a lot of external activities: CD or agent networking events, headshot mailings and general business actions in order to get those roles. This is all putting the carriage before the horse.
When you feel stuck in your career, you’re positioning yourself as a victim. That victim mindset is specifically what’s keeping you stuck in those roles. It’s not about your skills or the industry. It’s the way you think about it.
Deep down you might wonder if your worth is matching what you’re wanting.
The self-worth thing is preventing you from taking action towards your goals.
The reason why is because you were trained OUT of your worth when you were little. We’ve been raised to trust other people's worth, not our worth. At school and in society, we’re taught to do what we’re told, not what we want. But... you were already born PERFECT. You never needed to improve.
Most of us are the product of that type of conditioning.
It’s really about UNDOING the conditioning and re-muscling up your INSTINCT so you start from the paralysed victim mentality to a fully empowered being.
When you RESET yourself to be completely instinctive and fully present, it causes a domino effect in your career.
Your headshots will be free and authentic.
Your reel will reflect that.
You’ll attract a team that can help propel you to the auditions you want.
And then you book those roles.
It’s not “why am I not getting those parts?”. There’s steps that get you those parts and it starts with YOU.
