    Only 2 episodes in and I’m sold!
    Listened to two short pods from DaJuan and I feel the sincerity and authenticity within this podcast. He’s here to deliver true and useful information that some pay top $ for. Have already subscribed and am looking forward to more episodes to come.

    Such great info
    I’m new to this podcast, but like all of us have listened to sooo many others. So, we know when we come across good content and DaJuan’s work here is awesome. He keeps it real and has great guests! Thank you, DaJuan!

    DaJuan is a guiding light
    I adore this podcast and so appreciate DaJuans approach and earnest commitment to the actors mindset. Each episode is interesting, honest and eye opening. Regardless of what’s going on in my career and life I always feel inspired, confident and grounded after I listen to the D12 shot at the end. Can’t recommend this podcast enough for working actors of all levels!
  • TonyinChicago
    More than just “another actor podcast” - this one is special
    I like to put actor podcasts in 3 categories: Craft, Business and Mindset. Many actor podcasts hit one or two of these. But DaJuan hits all three and does it beautifully. Having followed him and more recently worked with him - I can say he’s one of the smartest actors I know who also fully gets the mindset side of things. We’re lucky to have him helping us out ❤️

    Great Acting Podcast
    I enjoy DaJuan’s guests so much! And he is so gifted at keeping the conversation flowing naturally. There are quite a few favorite episodes and guests but most recent was the one with David Blue. They had such a fun synergy between them but David also really brought it too, with his knowledge of the industry and his humor. It was by far one of my most favorites. So many gold nuggets of info and lots of “ah ha” moments. I feel like I went on a journey and grew from it.

    Immaculate Vibes and Informative
    DaJuan has always aimed at providing tangible and current information on the industry and what it takes to be a working actor while keeping the vibes and energy high vibrational. I’ve gone through a couple of DaJuan’s programs and everything he preaches, he practices. This podcast is just another way in which DaJuan gives back to the community and helps us all elevate to meet our success. I can’t say enough about what a great resource and teacher he is. We are all so lucky to have him in our corner!

    DaJuan is the Truth
    Incredible podcast. DaJuan is a great host, an amazingly talented actor, and better yet, an outstanding human. Love his personal story, advice, his guests, charisma, and honesty. He truly cares for all to succeed. I can’t help to cheer for him.
  • Linda Eicher
    D12 SHOT!
    I’m so grateful I found DaJuan and my Think Bigger TRIBE! I’ve found DaJuan to be genuinely transparent (doesn’t mind sharing when he’s had a yuk day), insightful regarding people and how difficult this business can be without support, and he is committed to suiting up, showing up, and giving 100%! I do better when I have my D12 shot!

    Straight shooting straight from the heart! Can’t help loving DaJuan’s honesty, generosity and limitless vision for artists who put in the work.

    Love this podcast
    I’m 5 episodes in and loving this! So real and fun and inspiring. So glad I’ve found it!
  • DN2018
    Motivational and Real
    This is hands-down the best podcast for actors I’ve heard this far. Every podcast is different and appeals to different audiences but this one is a good dose of inspiration and motivation along with tough love realness. I’ve gone through and listened to Season 1 over again and there is a wealth of knowledge and experience that these actors have that is shared so vulnerably. They drop gems and lessons that have completely up-leveled my mindset as a human being and an actor who is ready to elevate in this industry. Thank you for this.
  • Lazy Trekkie
    Inspiring, Honest, The REAL Stuff
    DaJuan, thank you so much for creating something that is simultaneously actionable for us working actor types but ALSO such a thoughtful, personal examination of our business, our craft…and our humanity. Amazing.
  • Shunt8

    DAJUAANNNNNNNNNNN
    DaJuan, You know I’ve been obsessed with you since day one of coaching together. Your authenticity and humbleness is admirable. I love listening to your podcast because it feels like we’re working together again. I love how honest you are in your episodes and I can’t wait to dive in and learn even more for you. Thank you for having such a soothing voice and shining your light on being mentally strong in this acting world. :)

    Listen, hear/here...
    I’m posting a 2nd review because I’m mind-blown after listening to Chelsey and Adam’s interviews. DaJaun has his finger on the pulse of what we all go through as working actors and getting these folks to share about everything from “how do you handle rejection” to “do you think you’ve made it?” will give you a seriously new perspective on your career. All good and introspective musings that will lift you and “remind you”—at the same time. 5 Stars!

    DaJuan Johnson is All A-Game
    DaJuan Johnson brings his grounded motivational guidance to the podcast forum with great interviews with working actors, like himself. In his interviews, he paints a picture of the actor’s journey, the questions to ask along the way and how to create habits and practices to reach your goals.

    I love this podcast!
    I feel inspired! Hearing DaJuan talk with actors about their experience in the industry- the ups, downs & in betweens- reminds me I’m not alone. We’re all taking this journey as artists and it’s nice to hear how other actors are making it through. It felt like hanging out with my good friends. Insightful questions and answers too- I started to ask myself them! Thanks for this podcast, I’m excited for more!

    Amazing!
    DaJuan’s podcast for actors is an amazing platform for actors to access useful information, that is applicable for enhancing our careers! A MUST
  • Jonahaimz
    DaJuan “gets it”.
    Thankfully I knew of DaJuan’s work prior to listening to the podcast and I’m ecstatic to see his knowledge reach this platform. If you’re reading this and in your mind you’ve decided to become an actor, but fear you won’t be supported by your family, your friends, or even that little voice inside your head that says “I want to be an actor, but...” LET DAJUAN HELP GUIDE YOU. This wonderful career is more than just being talented and doing acting work you love. It’s about being mentally unstoppable, and DaJuan is gonna help you suit up for battle. *A side note, I’m a fan of DaJuan’s voice. It’s genuine and resonant and comforting. Thanks for making the podcast DaJuan! -Jonah

    Empowering!
    I met DaJuan after having the joy and privilege of featuring him on my old podcast, Inside Acting. His enthusiasm, intelligence, approachability, humor, and overall example are an absolute inspiration. So stoked to see this out in the world now, and can’t wait for what’s next!

    Top of your game
    Dajuan has always been about accountability, purpose, being positive and surrounding yourself with the right tribe of like minded individuals working towards common goals, meeting them and ultimately surpassing any level of self inflicted doubt. Dajuan is incredibly talented not only as an actor but as a mentor and coach to all those who may cross his path.
  • Meeshiemor
    Positive and encouraging
    As a member of the Think Bigger group on Facebook, I can honestly say that it is one of the most positive groups I belong to. DaJuan is positive, truthful about the biz of the business and shares frequently via posts, live videos and email. He also responds to questions and comments. He's an active leader of his group, not just an accumulator of members. I’m sure this podcast will be a hit.
