In The Spotlight With Your BrandTake it from a former FOX anchor and a soap opera star - your brand is your EVERYTHING! From how we speak, show up and present ourselves, it all starts with "Calmfidence" which a word Patricia Stark coined after teaching her students just that when they go on TV, to the concept of "Moticise" by innovator Sonia Satra.

Elisabeth Röhm has built a diverse body of work in major television roles and Oscar-nominated films which has allowed her to amass a huge fan base, and use her notoriety and platform to support a myriad of philanthropic endeavors including the American Heart Association, St. Jude, Global Green and The Trevor Project. Currently she can be seen on Crackle TV (Sony) in The Oath, where she’s gaining buzz about her Emmy-caliber performance. She portrays Aria Price, a senior FBI agent and undercover operative targeting the Ravens, going head to head with Ryan Kwanten who leads a police gang. It was while filming The Oath in Puerto Rico where her acting work intersected with her philanthropy. As a Red Cross Cabinet Member for 15 years, she was able to put her “emergency training” as a volunteer to work helping the families of the crew and those in need in the surrounding areas of the San Juan set. On the small screen, Röhm starred in CBS’ “Stalker” and TNT’s “The Last Ship,” and was also seen in recurring roles on “Jane the Virgin,” “Hawaii Five-O” and Netflix’s ”Flaked.” Many know Rohm for her signature role as steely lesbian Assistant District Attorney Serena Southerlyn on “Law & Order” which is frequently in syndication. Elisabeth's film credits include five-time Oscar nominated Director David O. Russell’s American Hustle as a member of the Golden Globe-winning ensemble cast, and JOY, again opposite Jennifer Lawrence.
