You're going to be rejected FAR MORE than you will book as an actor. This is one of those realities I knew going in and thought I was prepared for. But after two decades in the industry all those tiny losses have taken their toll. Every actor needs coping mechanisms and this solo episode is a candid and vulnerable view into the harmful ways I've coped over the years, the healthier ways I handle rejection now, and helpful tips for you to handle rejection going forward.
