Episode 48 - Hannah Marie Williams

This episode is bursting with positivity, realness and some rotten attempts at the Scottish accent from Casting Director Hannah Marie Williams, hailing from Cardiff. Misha and Hannah cover all the good stuff from casting projects to actors with tattoos and piercings to welsh cakes to finding your way and learning to hold space as a woman. DISCLAIMER: Explicit language is used frequently. Please also be warned listening to this you will most likely laugh out loud & want to thoroughly smash the patriarchy. Enjoy with a pint of T (responsibly). About Hannah Marie Williams: Hannah is a Casting Director with almost 10 years experience across all corners of the industry.
