Welcome back to the Dearing Acting Studio Podcast! In this episode we analyze the importance of keeping your mind, body, and spirit aligned in positivity. We've got a special guest this week, Jared Mishlove, owner of Altered Athletics operating out of Glory Gains Gym in Scottsdale Arizona. He is on our Chaos Comedy improv troupe and takes both Improv and Script classes. He is a personal trainer and his goal is to help people gain confidence through working out. Jared has been training with us for about six months now, and while he initially came for personal development training, he fell in love with performing through our classes.

One of the biggest struggles people face when going next level in life is learning to re-wire your brain. Matt explains this in his book, "Acting is my Day Job." Perhaps the biggest lesson in the book is to organize yourself... in EVERY aspect of your life. Stop making excuses, and start grinding because success is not about your surroundings. True success comes from grit, hard work, and a true love for the process. In response, Jared talks about how the same idea directly effects his clients in the gym. His philosophy is to work the fundamentals at a high level consistently in each session and build upon that strong foundation.

One of the things we talk a lot about here at our studio is the idea of winning your morning. Matt gets up at 3:30AM every morning and wouldn't have it any other way! His morning routine allows him to get ahead while the rest of the world is asleep. If you ask him about it, he'll tell you that the day he woke up was February 2nd, 2018. There are plenty of successful next level human beings who share in this idea such as, Tony Robbins, Eric Thomas, and Will Smith to list a few. The biggest mis-understanding people have about winning your morning is that it isn't about one specific time that works for everyone. It's actually about the discipline of doing what's hard to make your life easy in the long run. Discipline is one of the biggest factors in leveling up your mind and changing the way you go about life.

In the second ever episode of the Dearing Studio Teen Podcast we have special guests and studio crew members, Wyatt and Courtney on the mics with Brian and Joey. We dive deep into what it's like to be a teen in the present 21st century lifestyle and the struggles that come with comparison and social media. Each of them talks about what they've learned in their time at dearing, and what thy have overcome as actors through our classes.

The Power of Focus is becoming a superpower. In this episode Matthew Dearing and Joey Sweeney of Dearing Acting Studio talk about the power of protecting your time and zoning in to one thing at a time. Matthew Dearing explains these concepts in detail through his book Acting Is My Day Job: Seven Strategies to Market and Make Money as an Actor. In the book we give specific directions on how to organize your life, track your time and most importantly focus on what's important. 

Matt and Joey also talk about funny moments that have helped to shape who they are today. We teach people in our acting classes and professional development courses to celebrate the wins in life. Of course you should be striving to go next level in everything you do but it's also essential to celebrate the small wins along the way. The key is to celebrate where you are, learn from past mistakes and then find ways to grow.  

This simple concept will quite literally change your life. The truth is that what you focus on will become your reality. So do yourself a favor and focus on the good no matter what the circumstance and good things will tend to follow. There are always opportunities to become better and stronger no matter where you are on your journey. A great example of this idea can be found on the Dearing Acting Studio Stories page. Here we discuss how training has impacted our student's lives outside of acting. These stories are all very inspiring and show amazing people from all walks of life finding a way to celebrate where they are while remaining focused on getting better.

In this episode we have Shea, Matt, and Joey. Brian is out sick. We talk about some of the crazy obstacles we overcame in the past week, and the lessons we learned from them. The big points were on being silent, learning to listen intently and be present, and the difference between decimal point and comma decisions.

In this episode we have Matt, Brian, and Joey re-capping some big lessons that they have received recently. Speaking from someone who was in the room, the energy was on fire. It ended up being a late night podcast because of the crazy day we had, but the podcast is something we aren't willing to negotiate on. Tune in to listen to the life lessons and see if there's any areas that you can grow in to take yourself next level.

In this first ever Dearing Studio kids podcast, we have two long time students Jack and Rosalyn Dearing on the mics with their dad Matt Dearing and studio producer Joey Sweeney. We made this podcast to help cater the personal development work we do on our regular podcast to younger kids about issues that are relevant to them... Also it's just super cute to have kiddos in the studio producing content with us.

In this first ever teen podcast episode we have studio crew members and long time students Truman Hendrix and Isabel Root in with one of our instructors Brian Sweeney.
