She Turned Childhood Trauma into Chasing the Big Screen | Promise Aureila | Victortheinspiration
from Become the Victor Podcast
In today’s episode, I sit down with Promise Aureila, who grew up moving through adoption, foster care, group homes, changing schools, emotional abuse, abandonment, and childhood trauma. Instead of allowing that past to silence her, she began writing the characters and cinematic worlds that helped her imagine a different future.Promise shares how she began acting, studied the business of the entertainment industry, took acting classes, and eventually booked her first short film. When opportunities did not immediately arrive, she decided not to wait for permission. She began writing her own stories.Learn More About Their Story:https://victortheinspiration.com/blogs/become-the-victor-podcast/PromiseAureilaEpisode26Connect with Promise Aureila:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iampromiseee/TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@iampromiseeeYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@PromisetheeActressWebsite:https://linktr.ee/PromiseMcClainBecome the Victor | Complete Interview Series:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhuwnO_369gsaifZ0YkajPVDpTcN5hoOQChapters:00:00 “You’re Going to See Me”01:55 Adoption, Foster Care, Group Homes, and Abandonment03:56 How Therapy, Journaling, and Music Helped Her 06:06 The Childhood Dream Becoming an Actress08:26 Creating from Her Own Pain11:44 Why Promise Believes Love Must Be Proven15:06 Feeling Misunderstood and Creating a Chosen Family17:30 Ambition, Patience, and Refusing to Quit21:32 Self-Harm, Visible Scars, and Finding Confidence27:24 Leaving the Past Behind#BecometheVictor#PromiseAureila#ActressJourneyTune into Become the Victor Podcast:Listen on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@BecometheVictorListen on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/become-the-victor/id1892258845Listen on Amazon Music:https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/d360ddd7-158d-47ae-8505-acecb401dd77/become-the-victor-podcastListen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0iENHZM8O9XROSTgEwTEnZ?si=067c01d40784426dListen on iHeartRadio:https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1333-become-the-victor-podcast-330696431Connect with Me:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Victortheinspiration/YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@VictortheinspirationWebsite:https://Victortheinspiration.com/My book, Become the Victor: Turning Trials into Triumph, tells my personal journey and offers guidance for anyone who feels stuck, discouraged, or unsure how to move forward.
