Beginning the Journey towards Creativity

On May 4th, I made a bold decision that gave me a little bit of the “back-of-your-neck-sweats” (which I get a lot of.. LOL) - I decided to pursue acting, despite my nerves and fears holding me back for so many years I got this wild hair to just take the leap and pursue a passion I’ve wanted to embrace for a VERY long time…

I dove in headfirst by reaching out to talent agencies, despite my overwhelming lack of experience.. Oops! But hey, we learn as we go, right? On May 6th, I excitedly inquired about starting my first acting class at Art's Sake and got a response back almost immediately.

May 7th was the big day - my first ever acting class! As I walked through the doors of Art's Sake, a wave of excitement and anticipation washed over me. Surrounded by fellow aspiring actors, I felt like I had found my tribe. The nerves were still there, but they were no match for the thrill of starting this new adventure.

And just like that, my journey into the wild world of acting began! It’s been four weeks so far and each week has brought new challenges and opportunities for growth. I learned to push past my fears, embrace vulnerability, and trust in my own talent.

Looking back on that pivotal moment on May 4th, I am so grateful for the courage that propelled me forward. Part of it fell larger than me.. like I was being nudged by something outside of my own body (see my “Why Act” statement for more on that..)

So, to all my fellow hesitant dream-chasers out there: this is your encouragement to embrace the fear! Step out of your comfort zone, take a risk, and watch as the magic unfolds. Who knows what incredible opportunities await on the other side? Let's make our dreams happen, one heart-led step at a time 🌟🎭💃🏻
