As a longtime listener you already know how much I love doing in-depth interviews on a variety of topics, whether that’s allowing everyday people to share their personal and inspirational journeys, or industry experts and world-renowned authors who share their expertise to help you optimize a specific area of your life.

But today what I’d love to do is give you an insider’s glimpse into the world of my Optimizer coaching & mentorship program and what we call the ‘Hot Seat.’ What you’ll hear today is a recording of an actual live session with an Optimizer student where on the Hot Seat we tackle various questions about career transitions, productivity, workflows, networking, burnout, habit formation, resumes and websites, and any number of other work or life challenges that students bring to the table as they navigate their own path towards success.

In today’s Hot Seat session I have a candid conversation with community member Eva Yuma about the realities of working in the entertainment industry while also trying to maintain her health & sanity. As Eva asks to frame our conversation, "Am I even built to do this for a living?" The short answer, Eva, is none of us are built for this. Listen in to learn more about the various strategies I shared with Eva to help her build healthier habits that will allow her to build a more sustainable and enjoyable career in the entertainment industry.
