Stay in touch with DaJuan! 

 

 

In this episode, we discuss…

 

  • Trusting in what’s to come, while still feeling your feelings and being upset 

  • Me (Tony) getting CALLED OUT by DaJuan at the top of the episode about how my headshot doesn’t look like me! (which I JUST got a new one for!!) 

  • DaJuan’s story of nearly booking a series regular, thinking he had the role for six weeks…then learning it didn’t go to him. 

  • What he does for his physical health (and to stick with things when he’s feeling bored of his routine) 

  • How our physical health is directly related to our mental health 

  • The surprising moment where DaJuan and I both learned we’ve given up alcohol 

  • The link between alcohol and anxiety that we both noticed 

  • What to do when we see others getting results that we want ourselves 

  • How to avoid deep, negative feelings when we hit the same obstacles over and over 

  • What went through DaJuan’s mind after auditioning for NCIS for 30 times - without booking
