Welcome back to Season 3 of The Business of Show Business Podcast, unpacking the skills needed for the entertainment industries and celebrating those already in them.

We are on episode 4, and I am flying solo today as I tackle rejection, imposter syndrome and how to stand out in a crowd.

This topic is something that almost all creatives and freelancers experience at some point, and I wanted to dive into this subject because 2020 and 2021 have not gone according to anyone's plans.

I break this episode down into three sections:

• Rejection
• Imposter Syndrome
• How to stand out in a crowded area of work.
