How to Handle Rejection as an Actor (Without Letting It Break You)
Rejection is part of every actor’s journey, but it doesn’t have to crush your spirit. In this post, I share simple, effective ways to handle rejection—like closing the chapter after auditions, setting emotional boundaries, and moving forward with confidence—so you can stay motivated and thrive in your acting career.

I’ve kept a spreadsheet for years, logging everything from the casting director’s name to whether it was a self-tape or callback. Over time, I’ve noticed certain casting directors keep bringing me back, even if I haven’t booked with them yet. That tells me they see potential, and it motivates me to keep delivering my best work. Tracking auditions turns rejection into data — and data, my friends, is power.
