            • Filling Your Soul and Your Pockets with Gilli Nissim

              Guess what?? This is the last interview episode of Season 2! And I’m so excited about it because I have an awesome, kind, hilarious, and talented guest - Gilli Nissim.

              Gilli is a writer, actress, and performer based in Los Angeles. She has been a writer for The Other Two on HBO Max, Pretty Smart on Netflix, and A.P. Bio on Peacock. She is also a co-host of the live talk show, We’re Gross, which was held at the UCB Theater in Los Angeles. And I’m so excited because after the long shutdown, it is coming back. And she and her co-host, Jake Jabbour, who was a guest in Season 1, get naked on stage. I don’t think every show, but a lot of them.

              In this episode we talk about how Gilli viewed success after graduating college and trying to get into the entertainment industry, the many valuable things she learned from creating and making “We’re Gross,” the top 3 skills that helped her a job as a tv writer, and some great advice for writers and artists on their journey as they navigate the entertainment industry.

              I had such a great time talking with Gilli and I hope you enjoy and get a lot out of our conversation. If you do, please take a screenshot of this episode and share on Instagram - tag me @levelupwithshay and Gilli @time2getgill
