<p>Today I’m sharing a conversation with Joseph Santos who is an actor in LA. </p><p>Joe and I originally met at an acting class and we were also in a play together a few years ago. He’s a wonderful actor and something that I’ve always really admired about him is his commitment to the craft of acting. I think you’ll really get a sense of that when you listen to him speak today. </p><p>Some of the things we talk about in our inspiring conversation are:</p><ul><li>Imposter syndrome</li><li>The importance of being in class and “opening up the shop” </li><li>What it’s like to work with Ethan Hawke </li><li>Joseph’s work with writing his first pilot</li><li>And, how candles can help with creativity =)</li></ul><p>Joe is such a wise, smart and passionate human being with a great sense of humor. I think you’re really going to enjoy today’s conversation and all of the nuggets of wisdom that Joe shares. </p><p>Let’s dive in! <br/><br/></p><p><b>IF YOU LOVED THIS EPISODE YOU MIGHT ALSO LOVE:</b></p><p><a href='https://leahsalinas.buzzsprout.com/1105679/6469789-answering-a-creative-calling-with-actor-producer-raphael-corkhill'>Answering a Creative Calling with Actor &amp; Producer Raphael Corkhill </a></p><p><br/><b>FIND JOSEPH</b></p><p>Instagram: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/agedinoak/'>@agedinoak </a></p><p><br/><b>FIND ME</b></p><p><a href='http://www.leahsalinas.com'>www.leahsalinas.com</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/leah_salinas/'>@leah_salinas</a></p><p><br/></p><p><b>THINGS WE MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE</b></p><p><a href='https://stevenpressfield.com/books/the-war-of-art/'>The War of Art by Steven Pressfield </a></p><p>Molly’s Game (the film) </p><p>Joseph’s first feature film: “The Kid” directed by Vincent D’Onofrio </p><p>Claire De Lune </p><p><br/></p><p>—</p><p>This podcast has been edited and co-produced by René G.
