Find out which type of actor you are here

It's hard truth time.

I recently applied for a role I was perfect for. The right look, the right age, the right energy, and I had LIVED the experience of the character... Honestly, it was like they'd written it for me. And yet... I didn't even get an audition.

In the past, that would've sent me spiralling straight into rejection mode... "What's wrong with me? Am I not good enough? Am I not one of the lucky ones?". But this time, I realised it was actually a clue. A clue that something wasn't right in my approach.

In this episode, I share the three crucial things that could be getting overlooked in your career:

1. Skills - the ones that actually make Casting Directors remember you.

2. Data- yes, it sounds boring, but it's career gold if you use it right.

3. Your industry positioning and the invisible factor that can make or break your shot even before you step in the room.

These aren't about "being lucky". They're about setting yourself up so luck has no choice but to find you.

If your acting career hasn't taken off just yet, this episode will show you how to spot what's missing, plug the gaps and start getting noticed for the roles you want to be seen for.

Before Leonardo DiCaprio was a global icon he was an unknown teenager, building his career up one role at a time... and auditioning for This Boys Life opposite Robert DeNiro.

He knew he had to do something different to stand out.

So he took a risk. One that caught DeNiro's attention and catapulted his career.

In this episode we explore:

• What it actually means to stand out in the acting industry (and how to do it without being fake or pushy)
• How the courage to make bold, grouded choices can transform your career
• Why risk-taking only works when it's supported by the right technique (hint: Method Acting gives you that foundation)
• What you can learn from DiCaprio's audition story to bring more truth, power and play to your own work.

🎭 This isn't about mimicking famous actors. It's about learning the tools that let you be yourself, fully expressed, in any role, so you can rise above the noise and get cast.

🎬 The technique that helped DiCaprio?

It's the same one you'll train in during the 10-Week Summer Method Acting Programme, including rarely-taught methods like Objects of Attention, Sense Memory and the exclusive Actor's Journal.
