Jennifer’s relationship with acting is a long story, which is a testament to her passion and creativity. She came from a creative, artistic family and grew up acting, then left the profession only to come back to it later in life. Tune in to this episode of the Second Act Actors podcast to learn more!

Jennifer shares her perspective on living creatively and tells me why she thinks that all actors need both a community and another outlet for their creativity, to combat the loneliness that can come with being an actor. We also discuss how you can mark your progress as an actor and why you shouldn’t dwell on whether or not you have talent. 

Later in the episode, Jennifer tells me about her activism through AACE (Association of Acting Coaches and Educators) and why she’s campaigning to create consent based practices and standards for students and teachers to provide safe working environments for classrooms and coaching studios. . Listen out for our interesting discussion about what oversight you should have as an acting teacher and for Jennifer’s words of wisdom for acting teachers!
