About Acting Rich
As actors, our financial situations are very different than most and although we experience similar struggles, there is no "one size fits all" solution. Often times, dealing with money can be boring and lack the creativity we artists thrive on. The term "starving artist" is often used in reference to actors and artists but is damaging because it creates a victim mentality. In order to change the trajectory of our finances we must change our thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and actions surrounding our relationship with money to be that of possibility and growth.
Thus, I coach with an integrative approach that incorporates change in a realistic way and at an attainable pace so my clients can move forward prosperously for the long term! Ultimately, my goal is to help artists understand what it means to be "rich" so they can start "acting" accordingly!
About Me...
I'm a Michigan native and New York City based actress and coach who has a passion for the arts, traveling, and people! Over the years I have often been asked how I'm able to do things like travel abroad while living the life of a "poor actor". My answer is always the same..."when you love something, you make it a priority, so I learned how to support my goals and dreams through financial planning".
Assuming the title of “starving artist” can be defeating so instead I chose to gain control of my money and soon realized that being a prosperous artist was absolutely possible! My passion for helping others achieve the same peace of mind in regards to their finances grew from there and now as a coach my goal is to help fellow actors and artists let go of the starving artist mindset so they can start acting rich and living the life of their dreams!
