ShowRunHer: Your Filmmaking Coach
This podcast is for filmmakers who are tired of guessing. I freestyle through real conversations about what it actually takes to build a career in film, not just make one project.

We talk features, shorts, web series, funding, packaging, distribution, and strategy, all through the lens of thinking like an executive producer.
