Compton born and raised, SAG member for over two decades, and the embodiment of all the positive tips we’ve said on this podcast about building a lasting career as a creative, we have on the pod today Actress, Director, and Educator CHARLOTTE WILLIAMS ROBERTS!!So much learning, so many giggles. One of our ABSOLUTE FAVORITE PEOPLE and the reason we met and Old Girls Entertainment became a thing is on the pod today, we talk with Charlotte all about her start in theatre through the Church as a PK (Pastor’s Kid), her first film that made her a SAG-AFTRA member at the age of 7, going to Los Angeles County High School for the Arts (LACHSA), getting her BFA at CSUF (with Monique), being in the industry, and sharing her love for art with the younger generation.We deep dive into all the multi-layers that have gone into her journey like how school can establish your work ethic and a foundation for other aspects of the industry other than acting, the importance of the business side of your artistry and some tips on how and where to learn that, moving from having a multitude of part time side jobs to the decision to teach full time in addition to her acting career, teaching vs. coaching, teaching connection for a new generation raised in technology, and her self-care routine that has been a game changer in her day… I know it’s a lot and there's even more!

4.10 A Pep Talk... Without Toxic Positivity
We feel it, and I bet you are feeling it too. The weight of the world is HEAVY right now. It's been heavy. Whenever we turn on the news, scroll on our phones, or literally engage with anyone, it feels like it's hard to keep your head above the onslaught of pain, destruction, and for lack of better words... bad vibes out there. On top of the ups and downs of the entertainment industry, we are slogging through trying to make art in this day and age, and honey, it ain't easy. So how to we move forward? How to we still fulfill our creative selves when we feel unmotivated in it's outcome? That's what we, your Old Girls Jess & Mo, talk about on the pod today.We are not therapists... or trained mental health professionals....by ANY means. We put this episode together because as artists, we often hold a light up to show, illuminate, or distract us from society, and it's really taking a toll mentally and emotionally for us personally to navigate. So we pose some coping strategies that have helped us move the needle personally and creativity to keep THE DREAM alive like...- Framing your current “nothing” into something- Making lists that actually serve you in a more inspirational and intentional way- When to confide in whom to best serve and protect you in those low or vulnerable momentsIf you have any other helpful tips, we'd LOVE to hear them and share with our community.

4.9 Podcasting, Patreon, & Audiobooks w/ REBECCA STRUZYNA
We have a special spooky guest with us this Halloween week; coming straight to us from Cobwebb Cottage in the UK is The West London Witch herself, REBECCA STRUZYNA!!!Rebecca, or Becca as we know her to be, is an Actress, Musical Theatre teacher in London, and Creator of The West London Witch Podcast where real stories are shared about people's experiences with the spooky, strange, mysterious, and unexplained. Becca has had INSANE guests on her show including Chris McKinnell (Ed and Lorraine Warren's grandson from the infamous Annabelle Doll story), Brandon Alvis and Mustafa Gatollari from Ghost Hunters, Andrea Perron from the real Conjuring house, Mike Allen who was the actual reporter for "The Devil Made Me Do It" court case, and more! Though in the end Becca shares that some of her favorite moments come from the people who write in to tell about their own personal haunted experiences. No matter who the guest is, the goal is always a great story! We talk the mind and technical hurtles of starting a podcast, creating a great and consistent show, and the differences between content for Social Media and sharing exclusive content for a growing fan base on a platform like Patreon.

4.8 Artistry in Content Creation w/ SHELAH LARSON
This Monday we have on the pod, our new obsession... SHELAH LARSON!!! Shelah (pronounced SHAY-LA, get it right), is an Actress, Producer, Director, Writer, and Content Creator. She's been awarded “Best Actress” for indie-films, including Bad Vintage (2023) and Back Home (2022). Shelah has also recently Written and Directed The List - Micro Short (2022), which won multiple awards at local LA film festivals, and plans to release two new shorts, ISAIAH (visual poem, 2024) and Under The Oak Tree (micro-short, 2024) in the coming months. AND she's the Co-Creator of SHORTSNACKS, bite-sized films for those who just want a snack. In addition to her multi-hyphenate filmmaking skills, Shelah is a resource savant! We get into how she learns by doing, creates mindfully with set goals for each project to propel her career forward, her pragmatic approach to reflecting on the experience of each project, and we tackle topical questions today like how to learn to ask questions on set as a woman in the industry, and what are verticals and their importance in today's market (Spoiler alert!!... they are VERY important, SAG is working on a new contact for them right now). And to top it all off, Shelah is a lovely, lovely human being we are so excited to bring to you today.
