    how to build an acting career | ACTOR TIPS ON NOT GIVING UP, BUILDING A CAREER, AND THE ARTIST LIFE

    What. A. Year. We have been through it, and I am so honored to have you all tuning along every step of the way. This is the season finale for the One Broke Actress Podcast in 2024, and I am walking you through the three main things that I think everyone needs to keep in mind as they start to build ‘an acting career for themselves. I tell you why I think we all need to maintain our passion for the work, to have perseverance, and to accept the long journey ahead. As artists, we need to constantly be seeking inspiration, and keeping a beginner's mindset, and planning for financial stability, and adjusting our expectations. It’s a lot, but it will be so worth it because it will help you stay in the game for a lifetime. If you’ve been waiting for a sign not to give up, this is it. During the weeks where I am processing what to do in 2025 for all of you, I’m also leaving you with my 'teaspoon of hope' theory that I hope helps you as much as it has me. Let me know in the comments down below or on the @samvalentine Instagram what you want to see more of.

    29/05/2025 • CHỈ NGƯỜI ĐĂNG KÝ

    rehearsals, restructuring, and how i found 30 hours a week to work on acting…

    tldr: why doing a play will *wreck* your routine if you’re not ready, what a real sustainable side hustle needs to survive, and how i’m keeping the wheels turning without running myself off a cliff. this week’s bonus episode is a good old-fashioned catch up. no outlines, just you and me, behind the curtain, talking through what the hell is actually going on right now. because… it’s a lot. in this one: - how i ended up rehearsing 6 days a week for a fringe play (and why it’s way less glamorous than it sounds) - what happens when you realize you *can’t* do it all (and who i called in to help) - full breakdown of my real schedule — from 5:45am wakeups to feeding dogs to barely functioning by 4pm - practicing “number one on the call sheet” energy in a 60-seat theater and why it matters anyway 💬 q&a is open as always — if you’ve got questions about doing plays in la, union vs non, how to *actually* scale a hustle, or just wanna know what’s in my rehearsal bag… drop them: https://shorturl.at/dHVZp
