But they've kind of said 17 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: reach out to them, them and them, and so I've 18 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: done all that radio silence, nothing, no response. That is 19 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: how it all works here from what I can gather, 20 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: So yeah, no luck on the manager front. Have done 21 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: a British audition this week, they did not specify which 22 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: part of England for accent, so I just went with 23 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: like the best neutral broad kind of like gentle British accent. 24 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: And I'm about to do another voiceover audition now I 25 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: have to sign an NDA for this one, which is 26 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: always like a little bit of fun because you're like, oh, 27 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: the steaks are high. So after I finished recording this, 28 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: I'm going to jump on and record that VO straight 29 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: away and on the VO note next week. My VO 30 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,559 Speaker 1: agents are doing are like they do these it's almost 31 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: like a course where they just can like coach you 32 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: on getting more work essentially, and I've had like one 33 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: each week commercial vo and it kind of just keeps 34 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 1: you keeping hope in the game. The other thing that 35 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: it has taught me though, because I can see how 36 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: many people on these zoom calls, It's like one hundred 37 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: and seventy, so I'm one of many, which means I 38 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: can't keep all my eggs in one basket, which is 39 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: totally fine. So that's exciting about today that I get 40 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: to put an audition up before I head into the 41 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 1: yoga studio. So I mention I managed yoga studo forty 42 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: hours a week so that's like a full time job. 43 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: I'm trying to get some time off to spend time 44 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: with Dad while he is here, but the time off 45 00:02:54,720 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: in America versus Australia is very, very different, and I'm 46 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: really hoping that they give me time off. But basically 47 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: it's just like you don't get as much in America. 48 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: I think it's like ten days a year you're allowed 49 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: to take off, which in Australia, if you had family, 50 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: you'd be like, great, I'm going to go hang with 51 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: my fanbab. So it's just been like learning new ways 52 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 1: and learning new styles of work and whatnot. Here Okay, 53 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: what else has been going on? We have booked Joshua 54 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: Tree for when dad's here, which is really exciting. I 55 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: want to take him to this place called the Integratron, 56 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: which is a sound healing space where the person that 57 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: designed the space allegedly had aliens visit him in the 58 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: night and told him how to build it without like 59 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: it's his beautiful dome shape and there's like no nails 60 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: in it and it's like the perfect acoustic sound. So 61 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: I'm going to book a sound healing session. Boss isn't 62 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: super keen and Dad isn't super keen, so I might 63 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: be doing that one on my lonesome. And we really 64 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: want to go to Pioneertown and there's a big kind 65 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: of like western thing on while we're there, a Western market, 66 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: So I'm really excited to do that. So I'm going 67 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: to book all of that, and the next thing on 68 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: my list is to book New York. So they're the 69 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 1: two places we're taking Dad. We're going to borrow a 70 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: blow up bed from mates, and in between, when he's 71 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: in La Hill, stay in our absolute matchbox of a 72 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: studio apartment. We live in a tiny, tiny studio apartment, 73 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,119 Speaker 1: but it's a great location and we have a pool 74 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: and fun things in the apartment, so he will be 75 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: Rider's rain. But I'm really looking forward not too long 76 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: now until Dad's here. I think it's like a couple 77 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: of weeks away. Yeah, literally a couple of weeks away, 78 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: which is really exciting. I want to tell you, Oh, 79 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 1: another thing I've done, because I guess my brain is 80 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: one of not giving up, right, and so I thought, 81 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: what can I change. We've just moved into Q four 82 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: with October, so I signed on with a publicist who 83 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: is amazing and has already bought in an American Influence 84 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: a deal for me, which is lovely, and a pod 85 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: swap on a really big pod here in America. So 86 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: that feels great to kind of be in that energy, 87 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: and I'm really excited about that and I'm loving that. 88 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: The other thing, I'm just trying to think. I feel 89 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: like I'm going to be all over the shop here. 90 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 1: But the reason why I'm really excited about the Publicist 91 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: is because we can generate work for me. And my 92 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: goal between now and the end of the year is 93 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: to do some segments on TV, whether it's around health, 94 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: whether it's around Fearlessly Failing, whether it's around the pod, 95 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 1: whether it's around books, happy days. I just want to 96 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: get some runs on the board with American TV for 97 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: a few reasons. One, it helps build my show Real, 98 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: and it means my show Real is really up to date. 99 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: Some of you may know I'm brunette now very dark. 100 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: When I'm about to go block act my hair black 101 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: just because fun, and so it means that I'll have 102 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: like really up to date content with my hair being darker. 103 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: And then it also means I'm getting like the shows 104 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: that I was on a couple of years ago don't 105 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: exist anymore, and so I'm just getting to know the 106 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: like the teams on the shows and stuff like that. 107 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: So I'm that's my goal with the Indiana when I 108 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: get a couple of TV segments, So fingers crossed, I 109 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: feel like there are attainable goals. Of course, keep auditioning, 110 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: keep doing the voiceover auditions, keep trying to get a 111 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 1: manager for acting auditions, like keep on that train. And 112 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: then by doing like the TV hosting and doing the segments, 113 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: I can like fill that passion cup by being like 114 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: I love being on a set and that to me 115 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: is like such an like exhilarating energy that also like 116 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: fills up and feeds my creativity. So that's kind of 117 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: my realistic goals for the end of the year. So 118 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: I hope that makes a lot of sense. Fingers and 119 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: toast crossed, and that is me really boss and I 120 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: celebrated our six year anniversary and we went to this 121 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: beautiful French wine bar called Pharmacy Devinne and it is 122 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: beautiful and you can just buy like a glass of 123 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: wine by a glass of wine.
