Ep. 55: The Actor Superpower You Didn't Know You Had...

Published: Aug. 17, 2020, 10 a.m.

Today we are talking specifically about the concept of intention and actionable ways we can use it in our acting journey to help us get closer to our goals. Did you know that it's been scientifically proven that direct, intentional thoughts can kill bacteria?! If we can do that, we sure as heck should be using that superpower for our acting careers. As actors, we’ve literally signed up for a career of complete unknowns. We have very limited control over our careers - what we book, when we book it, how many auditions we get. There are millions of other people out there who share our dreams, and thousands we’re competing up against for any one role. Could intention-setting be the extra push we need to succeed? 

About the show:

It's a Slate of Mind with Alison Haselden is a video-podcast designed to spark honest, unfiltered conversations within the entertainment industry community about things we're all thinking but don't talk about enough. It can feel isolating in this digital age (anyone else trapped in a self-tape bubble?), but we don't have to go it alone. Alison invites you to join her circle of friends new and old as we tackle the industry together. Alison Haselden grew up as a child actor and singer (her first time on set was age 6!) performing in commercials, print ads, film, TV, professional theatre, and recorded music between Orlando, FL, Nashville, TN, and Los Angeles, CA. She's now Atlanta, GA based pursuing film and TV as well as screenwriting.
