Hey peeps! It's a marathon ep (1h50m), with the impressive Sophie Carter of ⁠Centred Stage⁠ Performing Arts Counselling and Coaching. In this joyous and important episode, Sophie shares hilarious anecdotes from her stellar career as a performing artist, from lounge room shows to WAAPA to major musical including Priscilla & Urinetown to becoming a coach and counsellor for performing artists. It was a real privilege to speak with Sophie. Not having seen her for 16 years, I marvelled at her career change and perspectives on life and showbiz. I want to thank her for helping to make good mental wellbeing a focus and hopefully in the not too distant future a non-negotiable in the arts. If you are having some mental health struggles or need help with her experience in the arts, this could be the chat you needed to hear. Check out Sophie's business website, ⁠Centred Stage⁠ for more information. Chookas!
