Built For The Stage Podcast

"It's a matter of staying true to yourself while putting up healthy boundaries for yourself. Especially in our business, we don't want to dissapoint anybody. But at the end of the day if you stay true to yourself, if you stay authentic, then the right jobs will actually come to you. Then you won't have to be chasing things and you won't need to worry because you're remaining true to yourself."
