“If you zoom out and look at your life…what is already working in your life that will lend itself to transitioning into an acting career?” Cole Aansen, the special guest in this episode of the Second Act Actors podcast, asks this interesting question as a way of describing her route from online teaching, language learning and bar work into acting. Tune in to hear her positive attitude, her thoughtful message and her journey into acting.  

Cole tells me about the serendipitous path into acting and the chance meeting that encouraged her to go for her goals. She describes what her life is like now and explains the advantages of having a fully remote job if you’re also looking to pursue a career in acting. We also bond over our experiences as second act actors and Cole gives some excellent advice about how to bring lessons from your first act into your second. Listen out for Cole’s acting coach’s ‘essence descriptors’ technique to get the most out of your performances in auditions!
