Hello you lovely people!

This is our twelfth episode of the 'Finding Our Feet' Podcast!

Our first live episode is here – and it’s a wild one! We’re coming to you straight from the New Age Fundraiser 2025, boots on, mics in hand, and a spinny wheel of chaos by our side.

This cowboy-themed episode is packed with brilliant (and slightly unhinged) guests – performers, producers, and people just there for the vibes. From excited chats about their favourite acts, to unexpected confessions and silly games, this one’s full of surprises.

It’s unfiltered. It’s uncensored (yep, there’s swearing). It’s a bit all over the place – and we wouldn’t have it any other way!

Massive thank you to everyone who featured in the episode, all the incredible guests and performers, the New Age Fundraiser itself (especially the legend that is Linda-Ray), and the crew who helped bring it all together:

🎥 Camera – Tabitha Heidi-Brown (the full video is on our youtube!!)

🎧 Production Manager – Rayner Goh

🎬 Sound crew, editors and all behind the scenes – we love you!

From self-tapes to speaking truth to power, Alexa Morden joins us to talk all things acting, advocacy, and unlearning the industry rulebook. We dive into her experience as an actor and podcaster (yes, The 98%!), why being vocal matters, and what it really means to back yourself in an industry that doesn’t always make it easy. Plus - the mystery behind her upcoming book, learning to let go of ‘shoulds,’ and the honest truth about agents.

Hello you lovely people!

This is our ninth episode of the 'Finding Our Feet' Podcast!

Alexis Starke & Clara Carson:

This one gets bold, reflective, and a little bit fiery. We sit down with two brilliant performers to talk about navigating the messiness of graduating, identity in training, and what it means to push back against an industry that doesn’t always make space for everyone.

From politics in casting to carving out your own sense of belonging, this episode is full of real talk, big laughs, and the kind of honesty that makes you feel a bit less alone. It’s about knowing your worth, questioning the norms, and stepping into the next chapter on your own terms.
