Four days of intense posing, runway training, business coaching, and some of the most creative shoots I’ve ever done. I walked away with seven completely different looks (yes, including a mohawk moment) and a whole new direction for my career.</p><p>If you’ve ever questioned whether investing in yourself is worth it—this episode is for you.</p><p><b>💫 Want to see my photos?</b> </p><p>      <a href='https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GGlJQji1wFp4nTnLA1r_2y_Y8YQi9tTD/view?usp=sharing'>Click here!</a></p><p><b>My incredible roomie! </b>(check out her photos on insta)</p><p>      <a href='https://www.instagram.com/nhiydo/'>Nhi </a></p><p><b>My INCREDIBLE team: </b></p><p>Camp: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/cocorochamodelcamp/'>Coco Rocha Model Camp</a> + <a href='https://www.instagram.com/cocorocha/'>Coco Rocha</a></p><p>Photographer: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/jeaniestehrphoto/'>Jeanie</a> + <a href='https://www.instagram.com/danisaxphotos/'>Dani</a></p><p>Wardrobe Stylist: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/waveandwoven/'>Wave and Woven</a> + <a href='https://www.instagram.com/rileyjordanstyling/'>Riley</a></p><p>Hair: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/carolynrosecina/'>Carolyn</a> + <a href='https://www.instagram.com/_claudiacruz_/'>Claudia</a></p><p>Makeup: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/christinadelfinomua/'>Christina</a> + <a href='https://www.instagram.com/jennyalvesartistry/'>Jenny</a></p><p>2026 will be the year everything shifts for you!</p><p><b>Mindset Coaching for Actors</b>: If you’re tired of holding yourself back and want support I’d love to work with you. <a href='https://fza280unp9q.typeform.com/to/MNEHRCqv'>Apply for 1:1 coaching here</a></p><p><b>Unstoppable Actor Insider:</b> As an Insider, you’ll be the first to hear about updates, special offers, and new resources designed to support you in your acting career. <a href='https://www.megsalisburycreative.com/newsletter'>Become an Insider.</a></p><p><b>Unstoppable Actor Blog:</b> Visit the blog for deeper reflections, behind-the-scenes insights, and expanded ideas from the podcast.
