When The Dream Gets Heavy | Creative Struggles | S2 Ep. 15

Today's guest is back on Creative Struggles, and this time we’re talking about something many actors and creatives experience but don't always discuss openly: mental health. Since their last appearance, we’ve both continued navigating the highs and lows of pursuing a dream in an industry built on uncertainty. From rejection and comparison to burnout, self-worth, and staying motivated during slow seasons, this conversation is an honest reflection on the mental and emotional side of the journey. Because sometimes the biggest struggle isn’t booking the role—it's protecting your peace while you keep showing up.
