Auf Wiedersehen!

I'm signing off -

This blog has filled its purpose. To allow me another venue in which I can express myself, and, hopefully, inspire. I've tried to be very real about the life of an up and coming actress in New York - to be very honest in that its extremely up and down.

I hope its been helpful in some way. I hope its encouraged one to follow their dreams. To take a risk. Risks dont come easy to ANY of us. Not even to those who appear to be fearless. They are simply more intimate with their fears. Fear tells us what we need to do next. It leads the way.

And I'll leave you with this: Keep your chin up. Surround yourself with good, positive people who believe in you. When something doesnt feel right, it probably isnt! Keep trusting your instincts.

And a story on fear:

My acting coach had a student who was terrified of flying. She had to work out on the west coast, then be in New York the next day for a television interview. She didnt know what to do bc she never flies. But she didnt want to miss either opportunity.

My acting coach's advice to her was :

Fly scared.
