## Resource

Auditions are part of every performer's journey, but that doesn't mean they come naturally. The process can feel overwhelming, especially with the rise of self-taping. How can performers approach auditions with less stress and more confidence? SAG-AFTRA members Nikki Dixon and Wes Jetton join the podcast to share their best advice for staying grounded and enjoying the process. They talk about how to prepare without over-rehearsing, the importance of letting go after you hit send and why mindset and flexibility matter more than perfection. *The views expressed by guests are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views of their organization or SAG-AFTRA.
