In today’s episode, Amanda drinks some matcha with actor, writer, and creator Paige Evans. Paige’s work has premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, she’s won three Best Actress Awards at film festivals across the globe, and she’s built a dedicated audience of over 1.6 million followers on TikTok. You can catch her in Sorry About the Demon on Shudder, Something You Said Last Night on CBC Gem, and starring in her new series Revival, airing on Syfy (CTV) and streaming on Crave and Peacock.
In this episode, Amanda and Paige discuss the emotional highs and lows of auditioning in a self-tape era, navigating rejection and self-worth in an industry that often feels silent, and using social media as a tool for visibility, vulnerability, and community.
