She also opens up about becoming a caregiver to her mother, whose life was shaped by trauma, addiction and bipolar disorder, and losing her to breast cancer just four weeks after her diagnosis.

  • Rob Brownstein on Rejection, Al Pacino and the Actor’s Inner Work
    Sep 1 2026

    Rob Brownstein (Michael, Straight Outta Compton) joins General Hospital's Maurice Benard. On State of Mind, the actor and longtime teacher reflects on working with Al Pacino, the pressure and precision of soap acting, and an idea that has shaped the way he navigates a career built on uncertainty: maybe rejection is the wrong word. If only one actor can get the role, how much of the pain comes from the decision — and how much from the story we tell ourselves about it? That question reaches well beyond Hollywood. Born in Vietnam and raised across continents, Rob grew up fast, carried adult weight early, and eventually turned to therapy and lifelong self-work. What does that history give an actor — and what has to be unlearned? Why did six months on The Bold and the Beautiful change the way he sees soap actors? What does Daniel Day-Lewis reveal about preparation? And after years in the business, why does Rob still believe the work is never finished?

  • Laura Day on Anxiety, Identity and What Actually Works
    Aug 24 2026

    Laura Day and Maurice Benard ask what separates intuition from anxiety—and what pain requires. The New York Times bestselling author argues that a useful signal should lead somewhere, suffering needs tools, and identity can be rebuilt through the choices we make next. Her story gives those ideas their weight. Laura survived a childhood shaped by neglect and devastating suicide loss, while Maurice brings his own experience of bipolar disorder and crippling anxiety into the conversation. Together they challenge easy answers about treatment, ego, resilience, and human potential—and reveal the humor, kindness, and unexpected friendship behind the Demi Moore Laura knows off camera.
