"It's a tough nut to crack isn't it?" Muggles (non actors) say about the industry. "Yes. Yes it is." You reply through gritted teeth.

This week Katie and Alexa talk about their experiences of having to be resilient and how they got through the times of having an existential crisis in bed at 3am. Plus, you get the inside scoop on some techniques on mental toughness, managing nerves/pressure and how to stay positive from a top performance coach, our special guest!
