Listen "Riding the roller coaster, navigating the risks and hazards of the acting life with Dr Julie Crabtree, PHD"
Episode Synopsis
With the current heightened uncertainly within the performance industry and the broader global instability, any kind of ‘tick the box’ approach to our wellbeing is just not working as it used to. This podcast delves into next level strategies to help us navigate the risks and hazards of the industry at this time. We will be discussing:
- Understanding our negative emotions and how to manage them
- Forming a strong, personal identity. Developing a coherent identity which is not based on our success as an actor, whether we get a call back or get offered the part
- Exploring being emotionally ‘detached with love’ from the industry. Caring enough to invest deeply in our work but not caring so much that it impacts on our mental health
- Creating new narratives for defining success
- Discovering how to anchor ourselves in the midst of personal and global uncertainty
