Redefining Success and Maintaining Your Discipline with Rome Green Jr of Dormtainment
I hope that this podcast motivates you and inspires you to go forth and build the career of your dreams and yet, I know that motivation is often fleeting. It’s a temporary feeling that is difficult to build consistency upon. It’s the discipline that separates the wheat from the chaff. So, we’re talking to Rome Green Jr. of Dormtainment about how he focuses on discipline to achieve his goals. #trynabesomebody

Fighting through Imposter Syndrome & Seeking External Validation with Tanya Gupta
Imposter syndrome is a real thing that everyone goes through in their career, even when on paper - they’ve had a stellar career thus far. Today, I’m having Tanya Gupta on the podcast to talk about seeking external validation and learning to lean on your internal validation and self-worth. This is something that everyone struggles with, myself included. Y'all ya girl gets said no to ALOT, and you have to have a strong internal fortitude to weather those "no" storms.

ADHD, Anxiety, and fighting through stagnation with Star Puppy (Danielle Glover)
I am so overwhelmingly excited to have this episode of the #trynabesomebody video podcast because we're chatting with Danielle Glover AKA @TheStarPuppy . In this episode, Danielle is going to talk about her artistic career and how she's working though (and not working through stagnation). She'll also cover how being consistent, disciplined and methodical about content creation goes directly against how her mind works with ADHD and Anxiety. I'm so grateful, that she felt comfortable and confident enough with me and all of you to share this so make sure to show her all the love in the comments and on her platform.

Trusting Your Skills and Owning Your Confidence with Maya Table
Maya Table, a film and music video director, talks about how she channels her confidence while working in a predominantly male and white industry. In the second half of the interview, you'll watch me shift the conversation and ask bigger questions about balancing my career with what I personally feel matters most in this life - family, friends, and relationships. When producing the Tryna Be Somebody podcast, I try to pick interviewees that will add value to the audience, this interview though was one I didn't know I needed for my own personal growth.

Seeing Patterns and Breaking Them With Victor Jackson
For this second episode of the #TrynaBeSomebody video podcast, we're interviewing Victor Jackson also known as Mr. Glam Rock Soul. Y'all he is a true light of love and honestly, I just wanted you all to experience him. Today's episode will be different than the usual content. Yes, the Tryna Be Somebody Video podcast is all about our creative careers but at the end of the day we're all human, and how we show up for every aspect of our lives matters. So, Victor and I will talk about his journey of seeing (negative) patterns in his life and how he worked through them. We'll talk about his journey of seeking therapy, how he's dealt with depression and grief, and a multitude of other tools he uses to show up as his best self.
And of course, we'll also talk about his creative career as a performing artist, singer, actor, choreographer, and creative director. I hope this episode and the prompt at the end for self-reflection gives you the space necessary to question your healthy and unhealthy patterns.
