About this episode

Alexa Morden discusses finding joy in the performing industry and redefining success amidst challenges.

Every guest on The 98% who has chosen to move on from the performing industry didn't do it because they fell out of love with the art of acting, it was because they didn't want to continue with the industry itself. So for those of us who choose to stay in it, how can we make it an enjoyable place to be? In this episode Alexa shares her thoughts and musings over recent months having a "front row seat to the sh*tshow" and why it is so important to redefine what success means to you in this business. Strap in for some classic 98% brutal honesty. The rose tinted glasses are off, because you don't need glasses when you can see things clearly! Using personal experiences and lessons learned, this episode aims to bring solace, support, encouragement, empowerment, and a dose of realism, at an especially difficult and quiet time for creatives in the entertainment industry.
