The Authentic Creative: expanding our capacity to feel good
Unhooking from the Pressure of Performance with Darren Darnborough
In this episode, Darren Darnborough and I dive deep into themes like unhooking from results and the importance of coming from a place of wholeness in a world often beyond our control. We discuss the 50 percent rule, which emphasizes focusing on what you can control and letting go of the rest—essential for building confidence and reducing overthinking. Darren shares insights from his journey as an actor, including the challenges of auditioning and the brilliance of WeAudition.com, a platform that empowers actors to refine their craft. I also share my personal experience with WeAudition.com and the benefits it provided me, highlighting how it allowed me to enjoy the fun of being of service and playing with other actors. We explore how to shift our perspective on comparison, using it as a source of healthy motivation rather than a path to unhappiness.
