Last call to Dare to be Unstoppable! ⚠️ What Last call to Dare to be Unstoppable! ⚠️ What I teach in Dare to be Unstoppable is exactly the way I start my year EVERY year and it’s the system my most successful clients rely on to hit their goals and stay on track. 🔥 This course changed the way I feel about assessment, mindset and goal-setting -- it also changed my results! Not to mention, it changed my clients’ results, too. 💥 Kennedy booked the lead in Beautiful the Musical and starred in a new pilot. 💥 Shelia had a huge mindset shift, stopped the negative self-talk and moved into feeling more aligned with a higher vibration of herself. 💥 Brooke signed with a manager, bought a condo and is now a sought after intimacy coordinator. 💥 Paul realized how much he had cost himself by playing it safe , so he moved to Portugal and started a production company. 💥 Mirai narrated 25 audiobooks, a DTBU goal, and received a glowing review in AudioFile Magazine. And they’re not the only ones... I went from stressed, overwhelmed, living in obligation and not listening to my heart to feeling light, joyful, fulfilled and living the life I wanted. #boom But there’s a catch….

The four answers I give to these questions ⬇️ The four answers I give to these questions ⬇️ I always get sidetracked. How is this course going to change that? ✨ Artists get sidetracked for 3 reasons: 1. You don’t have an action plan that motivates you 2. Your fear is bigger than your vision 3. You don’t even have a system to maintain momentum. These are the 3 problems Dare to be Unstoppable solves for you because it provides a step by step plan built around what lights you up & designed to erase your fears without years of therapy. So if you’re tired of hearing yourself say you’re tired of being distracted, I invite you to join the program. I’m not good at organizing, is this for me? First off, stop saying you’re not good at it! You know that which you resist persists. You’re not good at it because you don’t have a freakin’ system to follow. You don’t have to be a magical organizational unicorn to achieve great success. You just get to be willing to do some things differently and I’m going to show you how in the course, step-by-step. 💞 Are you willing to stop hiding behind that excuse and choose your greatness? If not, then this isn’t for you. I create a plan and then I doubt I’ll ever accomplish it. How’s this different? You’re not alone. The majority of actors I coach feel this way. Resistance and fear come up for us all and it manifests in doubt. Most people dim their light on this planet because they give in to their doubt, fear and excuses. And I'm pretty sure that's what you did in 2024. ✨ Module 1 is facing that doubt and fear head on! ✨ Module 2 is about transforming those limiting beliefs and making your passion greater than your fear. You will stop the self-sabotage and release that doubt. I promise. In order to change your pattern, you get to do the work. I don’t even know what I want. I have to figure that out first…. then I should take this, right? Ok. So how are you going to figure that out? Oh, I have an idea! ❤️‍🔥 Sign up for this program. 🤳🏻 Comment UNSTOPPABLE to take back your creative career! #workingactors #actorlifestyle #actorsofinstagram #actingcareer #careercoach #freeforactors
➡️Did you make a plan for 2024 and it just did ➡️Did you make a plan for 2024 and it just didn’t happen as you wanted? ➡️Do you feel disheartened because things felt slower this year and you had high hopes? ➡️Are you doing things by rote and letting your excuses have all the power? That’s how these actors felt at one point as well. Then they took my Dare to be Unstoppable course and it all shifted. You see the results. I’ve felt that before too. Not a lot of people know this about me, but at the end of 2014 I was REALLY unhappy. It was an extremely difficult time for me personally and in my acting career. I remember feeling so unmotivated. I was trying to force things to happen. I was getting nowhere fast. I doubted myself. I didn’t know how to get myself out of the rut I had built.. I know I’m not alone in feeling this way. But today? Life looks NOTHING like that time when I was questioning everything and not living my truth. Back then, I didn't know how to move through it. So I planned a 3-day weekend for myself out of town with a series of questions and systems I prepped to fix my life. Once I emerged from those 3 days, not only did I figure sh*t out. I had a plan to move forward that felt joyful and light. I understood what really made me tick, what I wanted and I felt like I could breathe again. That’s when I created my Dare to be Unstoppable course. And I’ve been sharing it with artists since 2018. The three things that whole experience taught me was: ➡️ You don’t have to survive in obligation and not live the life you truly want. ➡️ You don’t need to struggle year in and year out doing what you’ve always done. ➡️ You don’t need to get derailed when things don’t go as planned. If that resonates with you, you need a reset and a refocus and to create a plan for your success in 2025! 💪🏻 I’m here to support you. I get it.

💥 I know what it feels like to be derailed by i 💥 I know what it feels like to be derailed by industry chaos and feel like giving up because things are out of your control. 💥 I know what it feels like when fear takes over and you live out old familiar patterns of self-sabotage because that's what you know and you can't seem to break through 💥 I know what it feels like to get off track and forget about your goals because life intruded. 💥 I know how exhausting it feels to have tried everything you know and still feel like it’s not enough. 💥 I know what it feels like to feel close but still so far. Most actors and artists know what this feels like. 🥴 Yet, you continue to fall prey to it. Why? 🤔 Because you didn’t set up your year with a tested and proven system for success. One that allows you to be agile and to weather any storm that comes your way. Even industry wide shutdowns like strikes and pandemics. 😳 If you want to make 2025 different then you need a different plan to get you there. ❗ Dare to be Unstoppable is a complete 3 part- framework, specifically for actors and artists, to finally accomplish what you know you're capable of. The first year I used this complete framework, I doubled my income, signed with a fabulous manager, landed a distribution deal for my feature film, a dream script to produce and act in fell into my lap, I booked 9 audiobooks and I even lost 10 pounds. 🥳 And every year since has superseded my own expectations. Now it's your turn. Are you willing to make great changes in 2025? Are you willing to shed your excuses and all the reasons why you can't? Are you willing to step into your greatness with a specific holistic plan? Well, there's your answer. 🥳 Comment UNSTOPPABLE below and we’ll DM you the link. ;) #workingactors #actorlifestyle #actorsofinstagram #actingcareer #careercoach #freeforactors
