Mackenzie Lansing's excellent work in HBO's hit Mare of Easttown playing the bully Briana Delraso, wouldn't have been possible when she first came to NYC to pursue a professional acting career. What happens when you deny yourself the permission to function from your authenticity, from the fullness of who you are? Mackenzie talks about her journey of coming out of the closet professionally, and how prizing her truth changed the entire course of her career. Charlie and his former student also discuss what she learned from working with Maggie Gyllenhaal on The Deuce, how she prepared for her breakout role, and the importance of taking control of your audition. You can follow CBP on Instagram @creatingbehavior, and Charlie's NYC acting conservatory, the Maggie Flanigan Studio @maggieflaniganstudio.
