Description

Hot take: If you're relying only on acting income to survive in 2025… you're either incredibly lucky, or dangerously stressed.


In this raw and unfiltered episode, Maggie breaks down the real financial blueprint behind her life as a working actor — including exactly how much she makes, what she pays in rent, how she saves for her wedding, and why a full-time job hasn’t killed her theatre dreams (in fact, it’s helped her thrive).



  • What she earns

  • What she spends

  • How she saves

  • And how she’s still performing


Whether you're fresh out of school, deep in the hustle, or just tired of pretending you’ve got it all figured out.......... this episode is your permission slip to build stability your way.
