I have been enjoying listening to the older episodes to catch up and look forward to the new ones. Each time I take some nugget or gem away that I can use right away.

Brian is a gift to actors and creatives everywhere. He walks the line of practicality and spirituality, giving his listeners tangible advice but also deep questions that open up their own knowing. But also, he’s super fun and just an all around good time! Love this podcast and love Brian!

If your an artist struggling with the question ‘Am I Good enough?’ You should listen to one of Brian’s podcasts. You will definitely be ready to take on that question and the world of entertainment.
LaMeow69 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/22

Whatever ship Brian is setting sail on, I want to be on it! He takes the (sometimes terrifying) business of acting and makes it feel do-able. His wisdom is conveyed with such love, care and energy. You can’t listen to this podcast and not come away feeling inspired. It should be on every actor’s...Read full review »

I love Brian’s ability to constantly reframe our doubts/fears/anxieties from concerns about career into questions about our personhood. We are people who act, write, create, etc- not actors who moonlight as people. 🙂 It’s a significant shift that we desperately need in the industry, and I’m so...Read full review »

There are so many voices offering actors advice in this industry, that it can be hard to know who to listen to. Brian shares valuable and current information that empowers actors to make their own choices and jumpstart their career.

I first heard Brian on Sam Valentine's One Broke Actress podcast, and was so inspired and motivated by how he coached actors. I have been a follower of his ever since, I find whenever I am feeling a little overhelmed (or underwhelmed) by this actor life, his words re-energize me. He is an...Read full review »

So as Brian says in the intro, I fall under the baker and candlestick maker categories of creatives (I.e. love to cook and do lots of hobbies), but I’m not an actor or in any way working in the entertainment industry. Yet, the podcast has given me already a lot of insights and things to ponder to...Read full review »

This is my first podcast I have really ever listened to, so I feel like this setting the bar way too high.
