Get ready for an insightful and candid conversation with Eloise Mumford as she navigates the high stakes of Hollywood. From her early days auditioning in New York to the rollercoaster of booking her first big pilot, Lone Star, only to have it abruptly canceled— Eloise shares the raw realities of the industry, including the crucial, often unspoken, need for "recovery" from both the business and intense characters.

Hear about the "crazy" audition process for the massive Fifty Shades of Grey franchise, which involved a high-stakes table read before she was even cast. Eloise also delves into her audition techniques, hilariously revealing her mother as her steadfast self-tape reader. Discover her reflections on handling rejection, staying grounded in a volatile career, and her pride in impactful projects like The Right Stuff and her new Amazon Prime series Cross.

These are the unforgettable stories that landed Eloise Mumford right here.
