Manny Shih is an actor in the LA area. 

Like many others, he pondered a lot about what he wanted to do with his life. After some life circumstances, he made a career switch from pursuing Physical Therapy to Acting. We also dive into the practical ways of getting started in Acting, as well as handling rejections. 

Curious Asians create is a podcast where I speak with Asian creatives across all disciplines about psychology, philosophy, creativity/routine, and self-improvement with the overarching theme centering on helping others be more creative.

Creativity is a skill set we can all cultivate that enables us to foster a deeper relationship with ourselves, allowing us to be truly irreplaceable human beings. Let's see how these modern Artists do it.
