Actor & Creator Caroline Landed Reps Who Care About Both   Caroline Bloom is an actor AND a filmmaker and was determined to find representation that valued her for ALLLL of her incredible creativity – not just for acting!   For far too long she’d been hiding behind the actors-should-only-act myth. She was sure that her road to success had to be paved with acting credits… turns out when she embraced ALL of herself the industry was ready to do so too! She began to indulge in all she had to offer and highlight her gifts in her submissions (instead of tucking them away) –  and to her complete surprise, her vulnerability was not only seen, it was signed.    CLOSER LOOK & TAKEAWAYS What it felt like having reps read her emails, forward them to other reps, and compliment her. What being in a good meeting actually feels like – especially when you’ve only just begun to embrace your creativity in your messaging. How she prepared so she could be open to show up and shine in her rep meetings. How cultivating her full creative life without representation to validate her was the key to being unattached to the outcome in her meetings. How writing opened so many doors for her and became her favorite way to create her own opportunities. How comparison is a form of self-hate and how to shock your system out of it.   With this series, actors I’m talking to you: I believe that acting is your calling and your purpose on the planet.  You use your voice, and your body, and all that you are, to tell stories that remind US what it is to be human. You have the power to change lives.   And, we all know that having great representation makes that impact all that much more possible.    But let’s not get it twisted – looking for an agent or a manager sucks. It’s not straightforward, there are tons of people telling you the best-slash-only ways to do it, and it can leave you in a constant state of anxiety thinking to yourself – is this ever going to happen for me?    And that's why in this series of tell-all interviews with my agent goals students – you’ll hear how they did it.   REMINDER: Each of these bonus episodes is very different because each of these actors wants different things from their careers: some want to be on Broadway, others have their sights set on tv and film, and still others are creators and want to land reps that are excited by that.     CONNECT WITH CAROLINE Instagram https://www.instagram.com/carolinebloom     CONNECT WITH ME Instagram https://www.instagram.com/briansaysthat   FREE TRAINING www.MakeAgentsWantYou.com   Thank you for tuning in to this episode of Brian Breaks Character!   If you loved this episode, please subscribe and leave an honest review.
