You never know where your creative journey will take you, but it pays to lean in.
My guest, Ally Murphy, believed her creative career had ended at age 20 after facing numerous acting rejections. Low on confidence and craving change, Ally pivoted to become a flight attendant. Fourteen years later, a chance encounter reignited her passion for the creative arts, leading her to reinvent herself as a voice actor, screen actor, and podcaster.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Ally's decision at age 11 to pursue acting
- The 90’s look and the accompanying body criticism
- The difference between being rejected and not being selected
- Her career transition to a flight attendant
- Her initial steps into voice acting
- How she rebuilt her creative career
- The nuances of voice acting versus screen acting
- Her podcast, The Red Eye
- Tune in for an inspiring conversation about resilience and rediscovery.
Happy listening!

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
