Calling all dreamers, hustlers, and creatives—this one’s for you! In this episode of Bitter B*tch, Jules sits down with the fiercely talented writer, actor, and director Julia Coulter to pull back the curtain on the wild ride that is filmmaking in Hollywood. From her start at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama in the UK to carving out her place in LA’s indie film scene, Julia dives into the realities of building a career in entertainment—beyond the glossy highlights. Julia keeps it real about the harsh realities of not booking work right away, why background gigs are the ultimate crash course in the industry, and the lessons she’s learned navigating a business that’s constantly evolving. They also tackle how union status isn’t the career milestone it once was and the hustle of landing an agent while staying true to your craft. Julia opens up about taking the reins as a filmmaker, from turning a personal trauma into art with her short film Brothers, to writing and starring in Habit, and now directing her first feature film, Road to L’Etape du Tour. With an all-star cast and the monumental challenge of directing and starring in the film, Julia shares how she juggled it all without losing her sanity. Her secret? Building a trusted team, leaning on her support system, and learning how to trust her instincts through every step of the process. This episode is packed with relatable truths, hard-earned lessons, and practical tips for anyone looking to make their mark in the art world. Jules reflects on the diversity push in Hollywood, the challenges of creating space as a woman in a male-dominated industry, and the importance of finding your voice and making your work truly your own.
