Erica Rhodes - Dateraid
Manage episode 433836887 series 2975334
In addition to her standup and acting career, Erica is standing up for herself in a new way. Let’s see how many ways I can use the word “Standup.” Being a standup person for yourself when it comes to dating and relationships, not the easiest thing to do. In this episode, we talk to Erica about dating, choosing not to, working on yourself, a therapist who told her she was faking her feelings and that crappy feeling when you’re dating someone who isn’t right for you but you go anyway and feel like crap. Jennifer shares some skills for using imagination to rehearse dates and what to say to negative thoughts you have on a date. And I once had a job as a “Pretend Dater.” My job was to go out on dates with people who were petrified of dating and help them feel more at ease. No I was not a prostitute. This agency which was called “The Job Factory” years ago, had unusual jobs for actors, and this was one. Back to Erica, what she’s practicing now, is learning how to realte to herself and what’s going on inside. Meditation also came up, we both practice it, me intermittently, but I do think it’s time for a competitive meditation show. We also taked about being real on stage, how different it feels and how when you’re more aware in life, it helps you be real and show up on stage in a different way; how it’s changed for her. Especially if your act is more joke oriented, this can be a real change. The audience really is less interested in what you say, it’s really who you are and how you are on a stage. I’ve experience that and often what it feels like to be panicky inside, but saying funny things outside.
