We’ve got a very special episode for y’all this week. It’s been about two years since I started DNA and I wanted to take some time to reflect on lessons I’ve learned from guests, how they’ve fundamentally changed the way I coach, and 10 of the most profound and immediately helpful takeaways you can carry with you as the DNA Podcast (and your careers) soldier on. Thanks for being here, I appreciate you!

Brett Donahue is a thoughtful, talented, and hard working actor who has navigated the industry for over two decades. He’s starred and been featured in dozens of shows (including 3 Pines, Private Eyes, and the upcoming Joel Kinnaman/John Malkovich starring “Bishop”. A veteran of stage and screen, Brett is a true leading talent. Any time I see his work I’m struck by how grounded, present, and dropped in he is. Turns out, this is hard earned by design and dedication. This episode is an exploration of the hard work, technique, trials, tribulations, and successes that come from a life lived and a living made in the trenches of our industry. I admire Brett greatly and I’m sure you will, too.

Sergio Di Zio was on everything ever made BEFORE he was a lead on the hit series “Flashpoint” and he’s been on everything under the sun since. Don’t believe me? Check out his IMDB. Not only does he boast a prolific screen resume, but he’s also a thriving theatre talent and just an all around great guy. Connection, in-person work, and living in the moment with his scene partners has been the through line in every moment of his career, and it’s increasingly becoming his 10x goal. Keep at it and keep in it, the moment, the life, the business; following that thread is what lights him up and keeps him going. This was an incredibly inspiring, thoughtful, and fun conversation with a truly unique guy. Come for the wisdom, stay for the laughs, and don’t forget to subscribe wherever this podcast finds you. Appreciate y’all.
