  • The Set Horror Story That Made Me Rethink My Boundaries
    Nov 3 2025

    Ever said yes on set when you really wanted to say no?

    In this episode, you’re coming with me inside a real set horror story — the kind that forces you to rethink what it means to be “easy to work with.”

    You’ll hear what happened when I tried to be the chill, go-with-the-flow actor… and how it backfired in a way I never expected. More importantly, you’ll walk away with the mindset shift and boundary tools that help you protect your craft, your safety, and your confidence on set — so you can book the right roles, not just any roles.

    If you’ve ever struggled to speak up, wanted to be liked more than you wanted to be respected, or felt nervous to draw a line in a professional space, this episode is for you.

    Because actors who book aren’t just talented — they know when (and how) to say no. And if you’re ready to strengthen that muscle, I’m also giving you a fun resource to help: Boundary Bingo — your daily challenge to practice one small boundary at a time and build your confidence brick by brick.

    Grab your coffee (or matcha) and let's dive in. 🎬✨

  • Building Your DIY Acting Reel (With a Little Help)
    Sep 7 2025

    This week on The Glow Up Year, I’m celebrating a huge milestone—I booked my very first job of the year, a Maine tourism commercial through my new agent! 🎉 In this episode, I’m sharing what that moment meant for me, how I’m easing back into the glow-up after last week’s funk, and why I’m so excited for what’s ahead.

    I also take you behind the scenes of an amazing test shoot I did with the insanely talented photographer Eve Gagné (seriously, go check her out!). From playful props to experimenting with big facial expressions, this shoot felt less like work and more like hanging out with a friend. Eve’s gorgeous riverfront studio, fast turnaround time, and hilarious vibe made the whole experience unforgettable—and reminded me how powerful collaboration can be when two creatives come together to help each other grow.

    You can find Eve’s work and connect with her here: Instagram | Website.

    Finally, I dive into the next chapter of my own creative journey: updating my acting reel with a series of micro-short scripts I’m writing and producing. I’m pulling back the curtain on how I’m approaching the writing process, collaborating with my community, and keeping it realistic with micro-budgets and small crews. If you’ve been curious about what it really looks like to build your own work as an actor, this episode is packed with inspiration, behind-the-scenes details, and a reminder that your glow up unfolds one bold move at a time.

    2025 could be the year everything shifts for you—and I want to be right there with you on the journey.

  • The Quantum Leap Blues
    Aug 14 2025

    Hey friend—welcome back to The Glow Up Year. If you've ever had a massive breakthrough only to crash right after... you're not alone.

    This week, I’m opening up about what I’m calling the Quantum Leap Blues—that disorienting moment when you’ve grown, leveled up, and stepped into a new version of yourself... but the world around you hasn’t caught up yet.

    After four powerful days at Coco Rocha Model Camp—where I felt confident, creative, and truly me—I came back home only to feel like I didn’t belong in my own life anymore. One small moment triggered a full-on spiral: old habits, self-sabotage, binge eating, isolation. My nervous system was screaming, “This is too much!” even though it was everything I had wanted.

    In this vulnerable episode, I walk you through what happened, how I moved through it, and why growth doesn’t always feel good in the moment. We talk about what it means to integrate a new version of yourself, how to ride out the lows after a high, and how to give yourself grace when you feel like you're regressing.

    If you’re stuck between who you were and who you're becoming—this one's for you.

    Let’s talk about the messy middle, the fear of success, and why you can have a glow up without losing yourself in the process.

    Because around here? We don’t gatekeep. We grow together.

    2025 could be the year everything shifts for you—and I want to be right there with you on the journey.

    Follow along for the real behind-the-scenes of acting, modeling, and mindset growth—you’ll see the wins, the lessons, and what it really takes to build a creative career.
