ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY MINDFULNESS TRAINING

 

What I Do:

​

 I give transformational keynote Mindfulness speeches and teach Mindfulness in person and virtually to show how Mindfulness can help you navigate the fast-paced and often chaotic entertainment world.
 

 I'm a storyteller who connects the hearts and minds of individuals 

by sharing my two decades of experience as an entertainment industry publicist for ABC/Disney and CBS Television Networks.  

 

In addition to helping individuals in front of and behind the camera learn how to navigate the chaotic entertainment world mindfully, I coach and teach techniques to enhance creativity, concentration, and communication skills with others to thrive in the industry. 

​

I am passionate about working with entertainment industry professionals. They play a crucial role in enriching people's lives by creating stories, music, and games that make us laugh, cry, and feel all sorts of emotions to connect people and make this world a better place.

Lights, Camera, Resilience:
Mindfully Overcoming Challenges to Thrive in the Entertainment Industry

 

My training helps you cultivate relationships, release stress, tap into creativity, and build resilience to thrive in the industry.
 

The world of entertainment is one of the most competitive industries. Whether you're an actor, writer, or director or work "behind the scenes" as crew or studio and network office workers, the industry is stressful. Spending endless hours on film or T.V. sets can produce strain and anxiety.

 

A growing body of research provides evidence that mindfulness practice can transform our lives, impacting us both personally and professionally. 

 

Practicing Mindfulness will help to:

 

• Reduce stress and anxiety

• Increase creativity

• Communicate effectively for better relationships

• Overcome rejection and setbacks

• Focus: Handle deadlines with ease

• Tap into your creative intuition for great ideas 

• Handle the fast-paced, rapidly changing industry

• Overcome fears and take risks
