I couldn’t be more excited to share this episode with you! Ryan Shelton has been on the top of my guest wish list since I started Pass Around the Smile. His episode on the Imperfects Podcast on Shame, Jealousy and Purpose changed my life. And today, I hope this episode can have a similar effect on my beautiful community! Ryan and I have a very open, casual, yet vulnerable conversation about the struggles we have both faced within the film and television industry. We dive into everything from rejection and competition, to the emotional resilience it takes to keep going ~ and the tough inner dialogue that shows up when we feel like we’ve failed. Ryan is so generous in sharing his thoughts ~ which I know will help my Smilie’s feel understood on many different levels. We also chat about how our goals can shift over time, and how doing the inner work can reveal that the big milestone we were chasing may not actually be what brings us happiness. Often, we place so much pressure on one “peak moment” that we forget to celebrate the beautiful things happening in between. This episode is a powerful reminder that joy, success, and fulfilment aren’t reserved for some far-off finish line ~ they’re available to us now, in the everyday. A BIT ABOUT RYAN: Ryan Shelton is a writer, actor, comedian, producer and podcast host who somehow manages to keep heart at the centre of everything he does. From Rove Live to We Can Be Heroes , to writing for award-winning shows with Hamish and Andy, his creative work has shaped some of Australia’s most iconic entertainment. But it’s his honest, vulnerable work on The Imperfects podcast that’s creating a deeper kind of impact ~ helping people feel seen, heard, and understood. I know, because one episode in particular changed my life. Listen to Ryan's episode on The Imperfects on Shame, Jealousy and Purpose here.
