    #197 From Open Mic Dabbler To Booked and Paid Pro
    Nov 22 2025
    Ep 197 – From Open Mic Dabbler To Paid Pro What if you could turn your late night open mics and bar shows into a real career on stage and on screen, without going broke, burning out, or killing the joy that made you start in the first place? In this solo episode of Inside the Audition, I answer 6 raw, honest questions from one of my clients who wants to go full time in comedy. I walk through what I actually did, what I would do differently now, and how you can use the same principles whether you are a comedian, actor, or any performer who wants to get paid for what you love. If you feel stuck between "I love this" and "how do I make money from this," this one is for you. In this episode, I share: How I went from unpaid open mics to higher paying gigs The real steps that moved me from "I will perform for beer and wings" to corporates, keynotes, and paid shows, plus the stuff I would skip if I was starting again today. Craft vs cash, and why they are not the same game How to think about getting really good at what you do, and separately, how to think about making money from it, so you stop confusing the two and beating yourself up. How to handle the money roller coaster without frying your nervous system Day jobs, runway, expenses, when to quit, when not to, and how I would set things up now so you can pursue your art without living in constant panic. The "writing vs hustling" question How much time should you spend on new material vs finding gigs and opportunities, what "balance" actually looks like, and how I personally create new material in real life, not in theory. Mentors, coaches, and why I lost years trying to lone wolf it The story of the headliner who took me on the road, what I learned from generous veterans, and why I now put so much value on coaching, acting classes, business coaching, and real communities. How to actually network with full time comedians without being weird Where to show up, how to become part of the community, why hosting your own show is a cheat code, and simple ways to build real relationships instead of awkward transactions. Staying positive when you are not booking as many gigs as you want Why tying your happiness to "how many shows I have this month" is a trap, how I think about slow seasons now, and what to do when your calendar is light so you do not spiral. Performing in the States and visas How my dual citizenship works, what most Canadian and international performers pursue instead, and what you should start saving and documenting now if the US is in your future. The bigger game: who you are being, not just what you are doing Getting specific about what you actually want your career to look like, why energy and identity matter more than any single tactic, and how to think long term while still being ready for magic today. Rough timestamps 00:00 Why I turned one client's text into a full episode 03:04 Craft vs money, and why you need to separate them 07:06 My early days saying yes to almost everything 10:08 Being a pro on and off stage so shows lead to more shows 18:42 Handling money, quitting your job, and not nuking your nervous system 20:48 Writing new material vs hustling for gigs 24:59 Mentors, coaching, and the cost of doing it alone 32:12 Where to actually meet and connect with working comics 36:02 Staying optimistic when you are not booking 42:33 Working in the US and the O 1 conversation 44:56 Bonus: getting brutally clear on what you really want Sponsored by: Monologue of the Month Club If you are serious about performing and you want to go from unseen to unforgettable and book your next lead role, join Monologue of the Month Club.

  • #196 The One Demo That Changes Everything (But Most Actors Don't Have)

    #196 The One Demo That Changes Everything (But Most Actors Don't Have)
    Sep 23 2025

    🎙 Inside the Audition – EPISODE 196


    🎧 "The One Demo That Changes Everything (But Most Actors Don't Have)"
    with voice coach and demo producer Moneen Daley


    🎙 Most actors are chasing roles with their face.
    But the smart ones are getting paid with their voice.
    In today's episode, we reveal the one marketing asset that opens doors to remote gigs, recurring income, and creative freedom.
    Most actors don't have it. You can.

    🎙 IN THIS EPISODE:


    Actors are often told to build their reel and get seen.
    But in a $6 billion voiceover industry...
    What about getting heard?


    In this powerful conversation with voice actor, coach, and demo producer Moneen Daley, you'll discover how to unlock one of the most underused income streams in acting. You don't need to move to LA, chase auditions, or burn out on set.

    💡 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN WHEN YOU LISTEN:


    🎧 Why a professional voice demo is your most important missing marketing tool
    🧠 The three mindset shifts to overcome creative blocks and limiting beliefs
    🗣 Moneen's "Vibe and Voice" system to stand out in any audition
    💼 What makes a great demo reel that actually gets you booked
    🚀 Why AI is not the threat actors think it is and how to rise above it
    💸 The fastest-growing voiceover markets that most actors overlook
    🎭 Why mastery, not hustle, is the future of creative income
    🧘‍♀️ How to change your self-talk and energy at the mic
    📣 A behind-the-scenes look at how Moneen helps actors build reels that land work


    A voiceover demo is more than a reel.
    It's your fastest path to creative freedom, recurring income, and consistent work as an actor.

  • #195 The Lead Role That Will Outlive You

    #195 The Lead Role That Will Outlive You
    Jul 8 2025
    This one's different. It's not about audition technique. It's about you. Your real life. The role you're already playing and the one you'll be remembered for. After attending a celebration of life for a family friend, I reflect on a truth too many actors learn too late: 💥 "There's no callback that can replace a moment that matters with the people you love." If you're chasing every gig and saying yes out of fear… If you're burning out while trying to "make it"… If you feel guilty for choosing rest, or family, or joy... This episode is your wake-up call. Your permission slip. Your full-body YES. 💡 YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH: 🎯 A powerful reminder: You're already playing a lead role in your own life. ❤️ Why acting should support your family life, not steal from it 🧠 How to reframe the 'grind' and stop saying yes to things that feel like a no 🧘‍♂️ How to move from work-life balance to work-life harmony 🚫 The lie of hustle culture and how to escape it for good 🌱 A vision for a career that fits your actual life (not one that demands you abandon it) ✨ HEADLINE TRUTH: 🎬 You are the writer. 🎬 You are the director. 🎬 You are the lead. So… is the story you're telling one that you love? 🎯 READY TO BUILD A CAREER THAT LOVES YOU BACK? 📦 Join Monologue of the Month Club Your monthly ritual to rehearse, record, and rise.
