Over half of performing artists and artistic athletes report pelvic floor symptoms. Up to 80% of female artistic athletes report pelvic floor symptoms, yet many believe these issues—like urinary leakage during performance—are par for the course, part of the job. Today, Jessica Frydenberg explains who performing artists are, why they are particularly susceptible to pelvic floor symptoms, and what this means for your clinical practice. Jess is an experienced pelvic health physiotherapist and PhD candidate at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia. She has extensive experience working with performing artists, and recently led a systematic review investigating the epidemiology of pelvic floor symptoms in performing artists. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Prevalence and impact of pelvic floor symptoms systematic review: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.13452

I reflect on the funny and unexpected moments that signaled my own pivot—from rehearsing pitch decks to finding joy in quiet creativity—and offers five playful signs that you might be ready for your own offstage chapter. Learn how to build a “creative life portfolio,” embrace new roles, and redefine success on their own terms.

The Psychological Benefits of Reconceptualizing Music-Making as Mindfulness PracticeIn this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer and Dr. Matthew Steinfeld explore the deep connection between mindfulness and music-making. Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, and contemplative traditions, this study argues that playing music can serve as a mindfulness practice, fostering presence, flow states, and emotional resilience. By shifting attention from self-judgment to the embodied experience of sound, musicians can reduce performance anxiety, enhance focus, and deepen their connection to their craft. Whether you're a professional musician or a casual player, tune in to discover how mindfulness can transform your musical experience.Full Reference:Steinfeld, M., & Brewer, J. A. (2015).

Send us a textDr. Albert Bramante joins us to share insights on overcoming self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and self-sabotage based on his 21 years as a talent agent and his psychology expertise. We explore how these challenges affect everyone regardless of profession, examining the psychology behind fear of success, fear of failure, and the importance of reframing our relationship with both.• Fear of success stems from our addiction to comfort and resistance to the changes success brings• Family and loved ones may unintentionally discourage our dreams due to their own insecurities and fears• Reframing failure as valuable feedback rather than the "end of the world" creates space for growth• Visualization is a powerful tool for success as "the brain doesn't know the difference between fiction and reality"• The difference between confidence and arrogance lies in humility and willingness to learn from feedback• Changing how we speak about ourselves (e.g., "professional" vs "aspiring") shapes our identity and outcomes• Dr. Bramante's book "Rise Above the Script" and hypnosis audio collection offer affordable tools for overcoming mental barriersCheck out Dr. Albert Bramante's book "Rise Above the Script: Confronting Self-Doubt, Mastering Self-Sabotage for Performing Artists" on Amazon, and visit albertbramante.com for his extensive collection of affordable hypnosis audios targeting various issues from imposter syndrome to addiction.Follow Alberta Bramante atHis websitehttps://albertbramante.com/LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/albertbramante/Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/dralbramanteSupport the showFollow your host atYouTube and Rumble for video contenthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUxk1oJBVw-IAZTqChH70aghttps://rumble.com/c/c-4236474Facebook to receive updateshttps://www.facebook.com/EliasEllusion/Twitter (yes, I refuse to call it X)https://x.com/politicallyht LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/eliasmarty/

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? Visit albertbramante.com to explore Albert's hypnosis recordings, follow him on social media for updates on his upcoming group coaching program, and discover how psychology can become your secret weapon for creative success.Want to be a guest on Living the Dream with Curveball?

She is a Bessie Award-winning dancer and her performance, choreographic and disability arts work has been presented by institutions across New York City and the U.S. In July of 2024 she announced the creation of Circle O, a new cultural organization established by and for Black Disabled and other multiply marginalized creatives. We discuss her journey to becoming a dancer, creating space in places where disability is often not welcome, the stories that can be told and the voices that can be heard through the art of movement and much, much more.
