Ep 179: What have I seen you in?

And now for something completely different! Richard is joined by coach and actor, Lena Kaur for a discussion about coaching actors.

We try to keep our definition of work and the workplace as broad as possible and in this episode, Richard and Lena explore the particular challenges faced by actors and how increasing their psychological flexibility can make all the difference.

Lena explains how being can actor can help when coaching other actors, but also when it can get in the way. And we take a look at the wellbeing challenges that actors frequently face.
