About this listen

You’ve left another audition feeling defeated. You’re pissed because those damn nerves took over your body...again. The real you actually never stepped foot in that audition; your nervous representative did. You go home and wonder if that casting office will ever call you again. The next audition you get forces you to replay this scenario over and over again, and you wonder if you even have what it takes to become a working actor. Instead of learning from the experience, it now haunts you.

Packed with insider secrets from a working Hollywood actress, Playing Small: The Actor’s Guide to Becoming a Booking Magnet is an incredibly listenable and rich tapestry for any actor, especially those pursuing a career in film and television.

Life and career coach Christine Horn pulls back the curtain of her own successful career to teach us one simple yet complicated lesson: Your thoughts are sabotaging your career. And she is brave enough to allow the piece to unfold with a distinct straightforward simplicity that never loses its edgy intellect.

This game-changing book will challenge you to push past the strategy you think you know and force you to identify the big fears that have held you back from running toward your dreams with your fullest potential. You will learn how to break through your psychological roadblocks that have kept you playing small and feeling stuck in a cycle of stinking thinking, useless comparison, procrastination, fear, shame, doubt, and worry.

With hundreds of successful client stories under her belt, Christine teaches you how to find the fun in acting again and how to become a booking magnet.

Yes, you need it !

Listen, even if your not a performer . Playing small is never okay in life . Christine is more than just a career coach. I was never really aware of fears and how large they are or sound in your mind . She has a comedic, loving way of letting you know how to shut that voice up. I have listen to it over 3 times and the more I hear it the more it soaks into my spirit and playing small is no longer an options . I can’t explain it but the empowerment you have after hearing it Is life changing.

Excellent, Audio Courage in a 2-hour Dose

Christine's book is not about technique. There tons of books and gurus that can help with that. Her book focuses on getting an actor out of the rut, through the toughest moments, into a winning mindset, and back to the basics. Pulling from several different fields, this wonderful tool is helpful outside of acting for any courageous endeavor, and I'll be applying her steps for the next audition, and in pitching my next screenplay. If you're an actor (or a creator) who's dissatisfied with your results, your auditions, or lack of work, the correct mindset could be the first place to start. And Christine nails how to get in, and stay in, the correct frame of mind.

THE REAL DEAL FOR ALL ACTORS

Christine tells it like it is and talks about the reality of what it is really like to be an actor. We all have similar fears of the "not good enough", fear of failure and even fear of success. She brings us to a place where we want to continue to pursue this crazy business. I'm so grateful she exists because she speaks to our souls! She is a blessed gift to humanity!
