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!

Freddy Giorlando is an award winning actor and producer, born and bred in New Jersey (Vinyl, Adulthood, Replica). Him and Julian sit down to talk about what growing up in Old Bridge New Jersey, where he assumed he would grow up to become a union worker. Just not the acting kind. What life was like after having a kid at 19 years old and how he decided to give up his entire youth to chase him dreams of being an actor. How having a kid at that age helped him stay on the course, because he wasn't able to be a kid with the rest of his friends. How he learned what sacrifice actually looked like, and how he became obsessed with building this thing that nobody would ever believe he could. He talks about the moment that his decision to do this went from one of irresponsibility to one that everyone was suddenly standing behind. The proof was in the pudding. He never gave up on himself. And now he has a burgeoning career as both an actor and producer in LA, his son is now 16, and he's only just getting started. Freddy is the kind of guy that you can't help but root for. And even if you don't he'll be rooting for you, because that's who he is.
