The Actor’s Waiting Room
Grace has had it rough. She’s spent thousands on training and years in customer service. Like most actors her life is a perpetual cycle of waiting. Join Grace as she tries to uncover the mysteries of the industry and why she isn’t famous yet. Some may call this investigative journalism, others may call it a waste of breath. But who can blame her, she’s just trying to pass the time, while she sits in the waiting room.

S3. Ep 6. Surviving Rejection
I am happy to confirm that this episode, when listening back in the editing room, did not sound as depressing as the title may suggest. Therefore, 'Surviving Rejection' has made its final reveal on the podcast.
Surviving rejection is a hard topic to talk about as it is the biggest challenge that all creatives have to navigate and come to terms with. I am going to try and attempt to rationalise the very odd feeling of rejection and maybe even motivate you.
As promised, please see two resources I talk about in this episode that may help you.
