If this sounds fun to you, please consider applying to co-host a future episode. Or if you’re into community building and making friends, we now have a Discord channel open to you. All that information can be found on instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dontbestrangers/">@dontbestrangers</a>!</p> <p>Today I’m speaking with a stranger Erin who is currently in university studying all things filmaking.

I believe there’s something to learned from everyone, hence why I decided to start this podcast where I hoped, in contrast to other interview-type podcasts where the interviewees are typically famous or universally accepted “successful” public figures, I could share your story. So thank you Erin for offering your voice as we dive into…</p> <ul> <li>how she got into acting and why she’s trying to get back into it</li> <li>children cartoons we watched growing up</li> <li>what we’re currently working on in terms of personal development</li> <li>our struggles with depression</li> <li>how the pandemic has affected Erin</l
