In The Actors and Athletes Studio with Steven Cuoco and Jake Jensen Live On Air with Steven Cuoco

Today’s episode and discussion: The MARS Approach by Jake Jensen

M(mindfulness): For this segment, Jake discusses the tenants of mindfulness and even leads the audience through a few mindfulness activities (explain mindful eating, mindful walking, etc).A(accountability): I believe we are all accountable for our actions and for the progression of our careers. In certain situations we are also accountable to others such as coaches, managers, agents, and casting directors. The business side of performance is often the part that we hate the most, but it's important to be accountable for all aspects of a career including the business side, building a brand, and knowing yourself and what you represent and value.R(resiliency): No matter what performance setting I work in, it takes a lot of resiliency to become really good or great at something. I think my own experiences and stories really support this. It takes a lot of resiliency to bounce back after a tough loss or to stay energized and motivated after seeing your scene get cut from a big movie. I think the fact that I have lived these experiences and continue to live these will make me very relatable to an audience.S(self-care): This might be my favorite pillar of the MARS approach because I think it's so important for athletes, actors, entertainers to practice self-care. This can include taking time in nature, actively pursuing a hobby or passion project, providing service to others, etc. We all need periods of both rest and activity, but I find that many of us focus our attention on the periods of activity and neglect the periods of rest and recovery.
