My name is Julian Gavilanes. I am an actor, filmmaker and now podcaster in NYC, who has an ever-growing fascination with the artists journey. Furthermore, how they've uniquely managed to stick with it through all the inevitable adversity that seems to be a prerequisite for getting to where they want to go.
Many artistic people will say, "you have to be delusional just to believe you even can." And this show attempts to explore how some of my favorite artists in the world learned to cross over from just believing that they could do this, to actually executing these "impossible" aspirations.
Ideally, through these conversations we will impart some level of valuable insight for all of us who are struggling to keep pushing the rock up the hill. Attempt to find the best skills for prioritizing self-care inside and keeping positivity at the forefront of their hearts. Because at the end of the day, no matter what level you reach--it doesn't get and easier. It just gets different. But the good news is, you're not alone. And you're far from inadequate. So, enjoy the talks and stay inspired!

Rich Henkles is an actor (Blue Bloods, FBI) and filmmaker. Rich sits down with Julian to discuss what it was like at the age of 55, when he turned his back on a lucrative and stable career with his family's business to focus on his original passion, acting. He talks about his 15 years as an award-winning TV Sportscaster/Host. How he discovered that the networking skills he developed as a corporate sales person for his family business worked side by side with landing him roles in TV and Film. And how he took all the skills he had picked up along the way to produce his first show, "Workforce," a project stemming from his creation of Actors' Think Tank, an actors collaboration, which was an offspring of the pandemic of 2020. Rich and Julian talk about the importance of keeping a good attitude in this business. How for just being kind and hard working will get you. And how despite how you feel about where you're at in life, it's never too late to get started on something that gets you excited.
