Real Talk With Sadie
Real Talk with Sadie is a podcast born from my love of film and the magic that happens behind the scenes. I created this space to spotlight the brilliant creatives - cinematographers, costume designers, directors, editors, composers, makeup artists, and rising actors! Their work brings stories to life!
I go beyond surface-level questions to explore how my guests got started, what drives them, and what they’re passionate about. I’ve had the honor of interviewing cast and crew from The Last of Us, Ted Lasso, Mad Max: Furiosa, The Fall Guy, and much more! If you love storytelling and the people who make it happen, this show is for you!

Akemi Nakashima | Nominated Hair Stylists Guild Award | Macklemore Music Video and more!
I would say I have finally gotten to amaetur level of doing my makeup and that’s saying something. I am in complete awe of anyone who can do their makeup, but what I am really fascinated by are makeup artists in the film industry. It requires so much attention to detail and collaboration. They are designing each character's look, applying makeup products on actors' faces and bodies and using prosthetics to create special makeup effects. I welcome the talented makeup artist, Akemi Nakashima who does makeup for film and theater. Akemi was nominated by the Make-Up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild Awards for Best Contemporary Makeup for a Feature-Length Motion Picture, Captain Fantastic, she has also worked on makeup and hair for a Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’ video, Dance off, and commercials for Amazon and Adidas.
