Secret Sauce

Principle #1: Your inner child is your secret sauce, use it wisely

The more prestigious the acting coach

The less time they have for bullshit

$60 per hour?

“What’s your objective?”

$600 per hour?

“Tell me about your inner child”

Want to be the lead on set?

Lead roles are reserved for more generous actors 

So be more generous 

And what’s the most generous thing you can give that no one else can?

That makes you completely unique in a sea full of bland pleasers?

You

The real you

Your inner child is the most generous thing you can give

It is your secret sauce 

It will carry you sustainably throughout your career 

Look at your heroes 

Look at the top performers in any field

This is what they do well

So begin the process of integrating your inner child into your adult life 

So you can give a real piece of yourself when contributing your work to society

However

There is a sacrifice to be made

There is a price to pay

It costs something to give the real you to the world 

Fear will raise its wonderful head

All the fascinating ways you learned to survive and protect yourself from the hurt and pain of this life

Be kind and careful with what shows up

The following work is for you, and no-one else

Step #1: Find a favourite picture of yourself as a child, preferably before age 6.

Step #2: Give them a name which resonates with you. Maybe a nickname people called you at that age.

Step #3: Put the picture somewhere you will see it every day

Your inner child is the cornerstone of your work moving forward 

This will become clear as we go

Trust me

Better yet

Trust your inner child
