Righto, this week’s been a goodie. I had a really fun audition that was set in the 70’s and called for a New York accent. I was lucky, I had a week to work on this script (usually you get a day or 2), so I worked with my dialect coach to get some help with the NY accent. Building the set and costume was so much fun! I didn’t realise that a lot of my wardrobe can transform into 70’s boho pretty easily. I even...

108 DAYS - why its a biggie

I've almost hit 108 days of meditation and my naturopath Jad reminded me that its a spiritually significant number.. here's a couple of reasons why:

In yoga, 108 is a sacred number that represents wholeness, transformation, and our connection to the universe. Its meaning has been woven through centuries of spiritual tradition, reminding us that every breath, movement, and intention is part of some...

Welcome back to your Friday Diary!

Righto, here’s the cliff notes of the past 7 days in LA

• Did a fun seggie on KTLA talking Summer Electrolyte Recipes (see my last substack for all the recipes)

The Cholesterol Fix:

Righto fam, my nutritionist cap is going back on! In a nutshell I got my cholesterol tested back in Australia in Jan and it was pretty darn high, enough to scare me into action, it was 8.3 total cholesterol and my LDL (thats what people often refer to as the bad cholesterol) was 5.7 so i saw my trusty naturopath Jad and got a plan in place before retesting again 4 months later. So in this episode we unpack ...

LA UPDATE:

No acting auditions this week, just two availability checks - one for a commercial audition that was looking for a podcast host, so that would have been a fun one. The other was a background availability check for Baywatch, which is shooting in Venice Beach, but i had a podcast already booked in so I couldn’t do that one. Actually one audition came in right before i recorded this! So i'll be self taping that rig...
