Send us a textAlbert Bramante brings a rare combination of talents to his work as a talent agent - over two decades of industry experience plus advanced credentials in psychology, hypnosis, and NLP. This unique perspective has made him an "architect of careers" who understands both the practical and psychological challenges performers face.Albert's journey began unexpectedly. Though originally destined for academic psychology, a brief acting stint revealed his true passion lay behind the scenes. Working at film festivals and in casting eventually led him to talent representation, where he discovered his gift for guiding artists through the psychological minefields of creative careers.His book "Rise Above the Script: Confronting Self-Doubt, Mastering Self-Sabotage for Performing Artists" distills this wisdom into actionable strategies. Albert shares several powerful techniques during our conversation, including creating a physical "happy file" to document wins and positive feedback - a tangible resource for combating self-doubt when it inevitably strikes. He emphasizes surrounding yourself with driven peers who elevate your performance rather than those who drain your energy.Perhaps most transformative is Albert's reframing of failure. Drawing from NLP principles, he teaches that "there's no such thing as failure, only feedback." For artists facing constant rejection, this perspective shift from "no" to "not today" or "not yet" fosters resilience and continuous improvement. He explores how understanding your personality traits - particularly conscientiousness - can predict and enhance your likelihood of success.Whether you're a performer battling imposter syndrome, a creative struggling with self-sabotage, or anyone seeking to build healthier self-esteem, Albert's insights offer a roadmap to psychological freedom. His daily affirmations - "I deserve to be here" and "Every day and every way, I am getting better and better" - provide a simple but powerful foundation for transforming your mindset.Ready to rise above your limiting scripts?

U.S. Senators Mark Warner (D-VA) and Thom Tillis (R-NC) have introduced legislation that would allow many more working artists to deduct from their taxable income the cost of expenses incurred during their employment. The Performing Artist Tax Parity Act would increase from ,000 to 0,000 the annual income ceiling for artists who would be eligible for the Qualified Performing Artist tax deduction, which has not been updated since its 1986 inception.

Eleanor Roosevelt once said, "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." Today I am living my dream of taking Speaking of Travel live with three amazing world- changing guests at the LEAF Global Arts Retreat.LEAF Global Arts  plays a significant role in fostering community and over the years has become an essential role of this community and provides opportunities for people to come together and celebrate their shared customs, beliefs, and values. My guests on this special live show, Masankho Banda, Amanda Lucidon and Chase Pickering, are leaders and visionaries ready to stand up and make a difference.Amanda is an award-winning photographer, filmmaker, and New York Times best-selling author. She served as an Official White House photographer responsible for documenting President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama from 2013 to 2017 and she is one of only a few female White House photographers in history. Her two highly-recommended books, Chasing Light: Michelle Obama Through the Lens of a White House Photographer, featuring beautiful photographs of the First Lady, and Reach Higher,  her book adapted for young readers, is a beautiful celebration, and powerful reminder, of the impact of a remarkable First Lady.Today, Amanda is helping bring awareness to adverse childhood experiences with creativity, mindfulness, education, and collaboration to address trauma through her organization, Grounded.

Que onda raza, esta semana tuve el enorme placer de conversar con Yosimar Reyes, un destacado poeta laureado de San José California. Yosimar nació en Guerrero México, pero se crió en los Estados Unidos. Yosimar es actor, productor, escritor y director de teatro y para acabarla todo le sale bien! En este episodio Yosi comparte abiertamente sobre su experiencia de crecer en un área de bajos recursos y cómo esa experiencia nutre su arte y le ayuda a ofrecernos una visión profunda y con la que muchos nos podemos identificar. Hablamos sobre cómo su poesía explora la vida de un inmigrante y las realidades de crecer en un entorno con recursos limitados. Además, profundizamos en el papel vital del arte en la comunidad inmigrante latina y hispana en Estados Unidos, y la importancia de reconocer y valorar el descanso en una cultura que está orientada al trabajo. Este episodio no solo cubrimos temas de poesía y arte, sino que también reflexionamos sobre la importancia de estos en la narrativa y la identidad de nuestras comunidades.    Music this week by: La Noche Oskura, Silvermansound.com and LESFM.
