The Dangerous Habit That's Ruining Your Confidence

Something shifts when you stop trying to prove you’re enough—and just start being enough. But let’s be real, that’s easier said than done, especially in an industry built on rejection, comparison, and constant self-doubt. Developing a positive mindset for actors is key, but how do you actually do that when you’re constantly putting yourself out there?

On the podcast today, I’m talking with The Enoughness Guy, Michael Klein, about why so many actors get stuck in self-doubt and how to stop letting rejection mess with your head. We get into how childhood experiences shape confidence, why jealousy in acting isn’t always a bad thing (yeah, that one surprised me too), and how to rewire your brain to flip nerves into excitement before an audition.

We also break down the sneaky ways actors sabotage their careers without even knowing it—and what to do instead. Plus, the mindset shift that makes rejection sting less and keeps you focused on what actually moves your career forward.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly chasing confidence or wondering why you still don’t feel like you’re enough, this episode is for you.

Until next time, you stay your bold and beautiful self,
Anne
