15. DC Cassidy - Part 1
My podcast series is back! This is my “screw you” to Covid-19. My friend and mentor, Michael Fisk, introduced me to a man named DC Cassidy. Man, he’s got some incredible stories. Originally from the tech and start up world, he transitioned into storytelling. But it wasn’t easy. DC experienced a harrowing journey of injustice and incredibly unfair events that we call law and order. This is part 1 of 2.
13. Sarah Heath
A dazzling soul, Reverend Sarah Heath and I have a delightful ping pong banter where she openly shares how she became a pastor, that it is a real job, the catches, her secret desire to be an actor, our heartbreaks of old loves, creating space to unite others, the cost of being a pastor, and describing what our “perfect day” is.
When I got to know Sarah back in 2010, she said she’s very happy but not satisfied. That resonated with me till this day and always will. At the time, she really wanted to act in films. So, I cast her in my short film and she nailed it. Give it a watch.
