196. Working Actor Life: Allergies, Working from Home, and Side Hustles

Gabrielle Byndloss is back for more candid conversations about our Working Actor Life. We dive deep into one of our most asked questions: how the heck did we get started on our side jobs? We get honest about the pros and cons about working from home (including having to work when you are deathly ill from severe allergies), reflecting on what brings you the most joy, and why you need to let go of the pressure to monetize everything you love to do. From discussing the importance of understanding your own worth to navigating the complexities of actually building a side hustle while pursuing acting, we cover it all. This episode will leave you wanting to start on your own side gig so you can support yourself in the long term pursuit of this career.
