by Sam Valentine
Financially, mentally, physically or otherwise...most actors are at least a little broke. Host/actress Sam Valentine brings you advice, tips, and real stories (of success AND failure) from people in and around the acting industry right now. So you feel a little more “whole” and a little less alone in Hollywood. From auditions and the day-to-day life of working actors to getting agents/managers, we cover it all.

<p>I’ve done the impossible. I convinced my mom and dad to be on the podcast. I know, we thought it would never happen and yet here we are! I am so proud to bring on Rich and Debbie Valentine, and interview them on what it was like to raise an actor and support me in my dreams. You may not know this, but I didn’t come from a creative family. It’s really all on me, and my parents took a big leap of faith that I am forever grateful for. I share my experiences and challenges as an actor with my parents, and hear their side on how they feel about me moving from the Midwest to Los Angeles, constantly facing rejection, and coming out on top. Recorded at the family home, this is a must-listen for anyone needing a boost of familial support and insight into the actor’s life.</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/onebrokeactress">Watch the Full Video Podcast Here!</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>00:00 — The Importance of Family Support in an Acting Career</p> <p>02:29 — A Heartfelt Conversation with Mom: Understanding and Support</p> <p>06:05 — To Those Without Support</p> <p>13:17 — Insights from Dad: The Journey of Supporting an Actor</p> <p>15:49 — The Audition Realization: A Turning Point</p> <p>17:53 — From Hot Air Balloons to Seeking Stability</p> <p>19:00 — The Real Job Debate: Acting as a Career</p> <p>22:03 — Family Support and Understanding the Actor's Journey</p> <p>26:55 — Navigating the Challenges and Triumphs of Acting</p> <p>31:02 — Reflections and Advice for Aspiring Actors</p> <p><br></p> <p><em>Resources Mentioned in This Episode:</em></p> <p>★ Listen to <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/one-broke-actress-podcast/id1275621498?i=1000542328613">One Broke Actress “Being the Actor in the Family (with my Sister)”</a></p> <p>★ Listen to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zj9pdaeDJ8w">One Broke Actress “<strong>The (Sam) Valentine's Day Podcast Special with OBA Husband Caleb Ellis | BEING MARRIED TO AN ACTOR”</strong></a></p> <p><br></p> <p>⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯</p> <p>Want more?

<p>Have you always wondered about making your podcast union? Or using your content to pay into your pension and health? Today, I’m bringing on two SAG staff members in charge of these contracts to talk ALL about the Influencer and Podcast Agreements. Sue-Anne Morrow and Shaine Griffin get into a comprehensive discussion about SAG AFTRA, and the conversation covers the distinct contracts available for podcasters and influencers, the benefits of each, and the importance of union coverage in these evolving industries. We go into who these contracts would be right for, how to make sure you product yourself and your brand, and even detail the process of covering podcasts and influencer content under SAG AFTRA.

<p>Waiting in line since 5am. Spending 8+ hour days for an audition you may never get. Having to find the best audition material to match the tone of the show you want. These are the realities of theatre actors, and I’m bringing on the one and only Maggie Bera to take us through the current state of theatre in New York City. This one is for all of the stage actors out there, and for every on camera actor wondering what it’s like on the other side. Maggie shares her personal journey from moving to NYC, adjusting to the hustle of open calls, union benefits, and balancing acting with other jobs. She offers advice on navigating the city's theater scene, audition strategies, and maintaining a healthy work-life balance. We are also going to touch on the importance of financial stability, the benefits of Equity membership, and the impact of social media and online presence on modern actors' careers. If you’ve been wondering what it’s like to pursue a career on the stage or hoping to hear from a theater actor because you are one yourself, Maggie’s story will leave you feeling inspired to do what you love.</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/onebrokeactress">Watch the Full Video Podcast Here!</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>00:00 — Welcoming Maggie Bera 02:53 — The Realities of Moving to NYC for Theater 12:19 — Navigating the World of Auditions in New York 22:05 — The Journey to Equity Membership and Beyond 24:00 — Deciding When to Join the Union 25:45 — The Freelance Agent Experience 27:35 — Understanding Theatrical Agents 28:27 — Balancing Acting Career and Personal Life 31:34 — Maintaining Health and Wellness 35:32 — Navigating Relationships and Sacrifices 38:12 — Actor Aesthetic 43:21 — Learning and Growing Through Actor Aesthetic 45:37 — The Ever-Changing Industry and Online Presence</p> <p><br></p> <p><em>Resources Mentioned in This Episode:</em></p> <p>★ <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/actors-encouraged/id1489263156">Actors Encouraged Podcast</a></p> <p>★ <a href="https://www.actoraesthetic.com">Actor Aesthetic</a></p> <p>★ <a href="https://www.instagram.com/actoraesthetic/">Actor Aesthetic IG @actoraesthetic</a></p> <p>★ <a href="https://www.instagram.com/maggiebera/">Maggie’s IG @maggiebera</a></p> <p>★ <a href="http://www.maggiebera.com">Maggie’s Website</a></p> <p>⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯</p> <p>Want more?
