“If you can see it, you can move it.” One night, as a teenager living on a farm in Canada, Paul Greene dreamed he was working on a movie set. He had never seen one before. Now as an actor, musician, writer, director, and producer, Paul has worked on the sets of countless films and series. He’s been dubbed the Cary Grant of the Hallmark Channel. And today, we’re diving into the stories of how he got there.

Paul didn’t work as an actor in the beginning. He traveled the world as a model spending most of his 20s working for brands like Dolce & Gabbana and Tommy Hilfiger. Paul shares how spiritually and financially grounding this time was for him but also how the dream of storytelling never left him. At 30, and with a 5-month-old son, he set out to manifest that dream.

Many commercials, series regular and guest spots on dozens of TV shows including NCIS, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, The Newsroom, Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce, and Bitten, as well as 9 Hallmark Films later, you could say it’s manifest. He currently stars as Dr. Carson Shepherd in the Hallmark hit series When Calls the Heart. Last year he released a new album called Freedom for your Soul. And on Father’s Day 2021, he’s releasing a book, 52 ways to be the Dad you wish you had.

This man is always creating. And in a powerful way, it’s thanks to his son and Paul’s never-ending mission of having his life be a contribution to others.

Breathwork is the bridge to spirit, takes us into other realms, heals our body of trauma, regulates our para sympathetic system (nerves/fear) and connects us to our voice.

Today, Robin Solo joins Wednesday Wisdom to give insight about how Breathwork will help strengthen your instrument.

Tension is restrictive to breathing freely and deeply. A person free of stress will be calmer and better able to concentrate and connect to what they are saying in an open way. Our breath changes with our emotions so if you are free of stress anxiety, tension, fear, etc…you’ll be more present in your voice and body. If you are not breathing deeply and freely your voice, which is fueled by the breath, may sound weak and breathy without enough energy to project. This breath practice physiologically strengthens our lungs, lung capacity and endurance. Also if you are someone who has limiting beliefs or trauma around using your voice - for example you were told to be quiet, you felt not seen or heard because you felt no one was listening to you or taking you seriously - this practice can help you let go of that trauma and support you in speaking your truth. It can support you in speaking up and taking your power back in opening your throat chakra giving you more confidence to feel and express emotions through your voice.

Today’s guest is the gutsy and candid Sarah Shahi. You might recognize her as Jenny from Alias, Carmen on the L-Word, or the iconic Sameen Shaw on CBS’ Person of Interest. She’s a refreshingly honest and thus charming actress who makes no apologies for being herself. She discusses how befriending Robert Altman as an extra on his set inspired her to pursue an acting career and make the move from Texas to LA. She emphasizes the importance of being true to yourself in every way possible- for her, that means keeping her wardrobe casual and messy- even if it costs her the job.

Sarah keeps it real, opening up about what it’s like to film sex scenes and even begin lactating mid-audition. Her career is an example of what can happen when you don’t plan your life around the work and instead trust that the net will catch you.

Today, we’ll hear how she worked through personal tragedy while having to shoot a pilot, the lesson she learned working with Sarah Paulson, and the silver lining of almost booking THIS IS US. For Angel, the work is about trusting that life is always leading you to exactly where you need to be. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Angel Parker right here!

Our guest today is Canadian born actor Cameron Britton. He’s best known for his captivating and dynamic portrayal of serial killer Ed Kemper on Netflix’s series Mindhunter which earned him a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series. His recent credits include the crime thriller The Girl in the Spider’s Web and Netflix’s The Umbrella Academy. You can also catch him in Discovery Channel’s new series Manhunt alongside other such memorable talents as Paul Bettany and Judith Light.

Cameron says himself that he doesn’t like acting often, doesn’t go after the money, and only takes roles he’s invested in. He says “no” all the time. “No,” he believes, is the most powerful word in an actor’s vocabulary. But before that, he said “yes” to everything. He honed his craft at AMDA and doing theatre around Los Angeles where he felt safe to experiment.

His stories may save you from vomiting in a lobby, help you get to the heart of a character’s actions, and may even help you nail that next agent meeting. By the way, Cameron *loves* doing self-tapes and offers a few pointers on why you could love them too.

Over the course of his 35 year career, Chris Diamantopoulos has built an expansive body of work in the entertainment industry from Broadway theater, to voice acting, to television and film work. Inspired in his early years by Moe of The Three Stooges, Chris knew he wanted to be an actor from the age of 9.

Today, we sit down with Chris as he reveals how his transformative voice skills lead him to the Broadway stage in his twenties, and onward to Los Angeles where he landed roles in some of comedy’s biggest cartoon series. His credits include roles on Family Guy, American Dad!, The Office, 24, Arrested Development and the beloved character of Russ Hanneman on HBO’s Silicon Valley. Chris admits that he often found himself doing the things we as actors are told you’re not supposed to do in the audition room, but reveals how doing so often landed him the job by making bold and clear choices, even when productions already had someone else in mind for the part.

He shares with us the valuable lessons he’s learned over the years about hoping to be discovered and the realization that ultimately in the end, you gotta have some fun.

Today, I welcome Malin Akerman into the hot seat. Not only has this fearless beauty starred in countless blockbuster films like WATCHMEN, 27 DRESSES, and RAMPAGE, she also has explored- and conquered- the indie film world and is now producing her own content.

But how did this modern-day movie star really get her start? In this episode, we pull back the curtain on what it’s like to go from- within a year- being broke and sleeping on a futon while fronting a rock band, to booking a series regular role on HBO’s The Comeback. Find out how she handled being asked to improvise on the spot in a chemistry read with Ben Stiller (for the lead in the Farrelly Brother’s THE HEARTBREAK KID) and her fight to be considered for deeper, more nuanced roles like Annie, a woman with alopecia in HAPPY THANK YOU MORE PLEASE and Lara, a strong mother amidst the chaos in HBO’s BILLIONS.

From bringing diverse, powerful characters to life on the screen, to writing scripts for one of the most successful television series on Netflix, Brandon Kyle Goodman has emerged in the entertainment industry as a powerful force with a voice to be reckoned with.

This summer, Goodman can be seen starring in Netflix’s upcoming feature film, “Feel the Beat,” opposite Sofia Carson. The drama follows an out-of-work actress, April (Carson), who returns to her small hometown after failing to find success on Broadway and is soon recruited to train a misfit group of young dancers for a big competition. Goodman shines as the outspokenly brave, queer Deco, April’s neighbor and support system while she adjusts returning to her country life. “Feel the Beat” is slated to premiere on Netflix on June 19, 2020.

She’s the actress who's been in just about everything. You know that actor whose face you know like the back of your hand and whose work never fails to leave you wondering just how do they do it. Well get ready to be let in on the light that is Rosalind Chao. Listening to this woman share about her journey her childlike play spirit shines through. It’s no wonder she was discovered as a small child running up and down the aisles of her parent’s restaurant. Rosalind has allowed herself to flow from theatre to TV to film and back again. She’s not shy about her struggles with self-doubt and fear but it is her work ethic that is unwavering.

Even more impressive than her five-decade long resume is her determination to keep her personal life the priority. This woman lives from trust and abundance. It’s no wonder she just keeps working. She is the consummate actor who most recently appeared in the new play The Great Wave at The National Theatre in London just before she began shooting Disney’s live action Mulan scheduled to open in theatres this July. Listen and soak up her sense of freedom with the work and healthy detachment to the business. A lesson we all can keep learning. I admire this woman deeply and am thrilled to share the wealth of her wide breadth of experience.
