Special Episode: Carolina’s JOURNEY
Hiii everybody. This week on the show we are flipping things on it's head a little bit. I'm often asked about my story, my journey, my advice...so I figured it could be a fun opportunity to have my associate producer, Sarah Bockian, take the reins as interviewer and put me in the hot seat.
Sarah joined the team six months ago at the start of the writers’ strike, and has been working behind the scenes with me to help bring these episodes to life.
She comes from the world of development and writers’ room support staff, having worked on comedies and dramas for both broadcast and streaming.
As this is her formal introduction on the show, she’d like the listeners to know two things:
1) she’s available for staffing (and also Showrunners’ Assistant and Writers’ Assistant positions), and
2) she was super congested during the recording of this episode, and she’s 90% sure her voice normally sounds less annoying.
In this episode, we cover everything from my immigration to America, to egos at work, and the one set experience that still haunts me to this day.
Key Takeaways:
Make your own opportunities, don’t wait for them to find you
The most valuable business relationships are about depth, not quantity
The importance of holding on to your spark
