Mahesh Kotagi grew up a kid in Texas who yearned to be on TV. He knew he had a knack for being funny, but he had absolutely no idea how to get to where he wanted to be, let alone New York or Los Angeles. After a self-described horrific open-mic in Austin while pursuing an alternate career path, he knew he couldn't pursue anything else. Not seeing people like himself on TV only started a drive in him to get to where he knew he belonged, which he discusses on his podcast, No More Tokens. Listen to this week's episode to find out how to take the path less traveled, and building the drive to take chances on things that scare you.
