On this episode of Lox of Laughs, Ashley interviews DaJuan Johnson, a seasoned actor and mindset coach. They explore DaJuan's shift from acting to mindset coaching, focusing on the importance of mental resilience in the entertainment industry. DaJuan shares valuable insights on auditioning, the rise of self-taping, and how mindset plays a crucial role in an actor’s success.

The conversation delves into the importance of maintaining a positive internal dialogue, building strong relationships in the industry, and recognizing that the entertainment business operates differently than traditional corporate environments.
