Success doesn’t silence self-doubt.

In this powerful episode, Hacks and Pose star Johnny Sibilly gets honest about what happens after the big break. From the pressure to represent entire communities to the toll of always having to “be on,” Johnny shares the side of success most actors never hear about. If you’ve ever felt like rest isn’t an option, or visibility comes at a cost—you need this conversation.

Plus, I kick things off with some real talk about showing up in uncertain times, a wild email I got about L.A., and why our work as artists has never been separate from the world around us.
