Episode #100 – Albert Bramante: Hypnosis, Agents & Managing Self-Doubt
In this special centennial episode, I'm joined by Albert Bramante, Ph.D. — talent agent, hypnosis & NLP practitioner, psychology expert, working with actors and creatives to push past mental barriers. We went deep: acting, agents, hypnosis, and even near-death experiences (NDEs). Here's what we unpacked.
What We Talk About
· Who is Albert Bramante: his background as a psychology Ph.D, his work as a talent agent and coach for actors and creatives.
· Hypnosis & NLP tools: how they work, what they're good for, and how Albert uses them to help performers manage self-doubt, mental blocks, and performance anxiety.
· Acting & the agent relationship: what agents do for actors, how to work with them, what they expect, and what actors should look for in an agent.
· Mind & mental performance: mindset, resilience, mental preparation for creative work, overcoming fear of rejection, vulnerability.
· Near-Death Experiences (NDEs)? Listen to the end for a little on that subject.
