How To DIRECT Your Acting Career. An Interview With The Business and Acting Coach, Ajarae Coleman


Listen Later

Actors are accustomed to taking direction, on set, on stage, and in the voiceover booth. However, directing their own acting careers, can be a whole different ball game.

Meet Ajarae Coleman. 

Ajarae is a working actress with dozens of network TV, film and commercial credits, including NCIS: NEW ORLEANS (CBS), SCANDAL (ABC), REVENGE (ABC), THE CATCH (ABC), 2 BROKE GIRLS (CBS), THE McCarthy's (CBS), i'm SORRY (TruTV), PERCEPTION (TNT), HIT THE FLOOR (VH1), PRIVATE PRACTICE (ABC), and DAYS OF OUR LIVES (NBC).

Ajarae founded ActingResourceGuru.com (ARG) to give actors practical steps to get more auditions, book more work, stay in the know, and feel in charge of their careers. Ajarae is all about helping actors step into the role of LEADER so they can play an active role in their own success and truly have a seat at the power player table.

We discussed: 

  • The concept of artistic leadership
  • Time Management
  • Why Ajarae became an acting/business coach
  • How she came up with the idea to help actors
  • Why each artist must have their own individual voice
  • The importance of having a supportive community
