EP7: Finding Success After Giving Up on a Dream with TV Actor Turned Development Exec Lauren Chavez Myers

In this interview with Hasbro development exec Lauren Chavez-Myers, we dive into her journey, from TV actor to starting from square one as an assistant at a studio before climbing up the Hollywood ladder. We talk about the importance of listening to yourself, what it means to be a true leader, how to embrace changing identities, and the challenge of giving up on one dream in order to fulfill another. We also explore the best way to give script notes, how creativity thrives in boundaries, why it’s important to remember that this is still a business as a creative, why ferrets make great pets, the brilliance of ANDOR, and how it all ties back to the movie BOWFINGER. Also, as mentioned in the episode, a link to the micro short film that Angela directed for a directing workshop and Anna starred in is found here for your amusement: https://vimeo.com/1078586781 Thanks for listening!
