Voices In My Head (The Rick Lee James Podcast) Episode 582 - Tricia Wood Thomas
Acting has always been a deep calling for me, and I am eager to use my talents to promote and share messages of faith, hope, and love. Inspired by the profound impact that films and performances can have, I am committed to crafting stories that resonate with people and spread the word of the Lord.
My mission as a Christian actress is to uplift and inspire audiences by portraying characters and narratives that embody Christian values.
I am particularly drawn to working with Hallmark and other similar platforms known for their wholesome content, as I believe they align closely with my personal and professional goals. By bringing my faith to my performances, I strive to be a positive role model and influencer in the entertainment industry. I’m currently working with an acting Coach in LA and I have an agent and a manager. My manager I’m so thankful for is Andrea Nittoli she is such a wonderful Christian role model for me. It is a blessing to have as a Christian manager. I feel That God is blessing me and guiding me on the path that he wants me to follow. Whatever I do, I want it to glorify him and I want it to be his will for me. I want to seek his will from my life.
I have a website now triciawoodthomas.com, my website showcases reels that I have done with RELENTLESS Studios in LA. I am working with an Acting Coach Edward Gelhaus in LA and he has definitely helped my acting skills improve a lot and I I’m so thankful to have his guidance and skills to help on my acting journey.

Voices In My Head (The Rick Lee James Podcast) Episode 580 - Sean McGowan - The Holistic Guitarist
Coming Summer 2025! Place a pre-order now to receive your copy hot off the press.
An essential and comprehensive guide to well-being for guitarists.
How do accomplished guitarists practice? What do they work on, and for how long? How do they approach difficult, advanced material and avoid injury—or do they? Is it really possible to sustain a lifelong commitment to playing the guitar, continually improving, discovering new music, expanding your abilities, and doing it all without incident?
The short answer: yes, absolutely. And this complete guide will show you how to:
* Promote physical well-being through stretches and exercises
* Avoid cumulative trauma and repetitive stress injuries
* Manage stress and performance-related anxiety
* Create effective and enjoyable practice routines
* Develop solid technique through exercises and études
* Incorporate visualization techniques into your playing
* Create a deeper connection with both your music and your instrument
Plus, you’ll get advice from acclaimed guitarists like Clive Carroll, Alex de Grassi, Vicki Genfan, Grant Gordy, Mark Hanson, Eric Johnson, Laurence Juber, Adam Levy, Juanito Pascual, and more along the way.
For guitarists of all ages, styles, and levels, The Holistic Guitarist by Sean McGowan offers a comprehensive approach to staying healthy, practicing creatively, and improving as a musician.
This complete guide is available in your choice of print or digital format, with 140 pages of written instruction, plus standard notation and tablature. Both editions include downloadable videos.
"An incredible resource for help with the physical and mental demands of being a guitarist. Sean is thorough, concise, and eminently relatable."—Andy McKee
