ShowRunHer: Your Filmmaking Coach
This podcast is for filmmakers who are tired of guessing. I freestyle through real conversations about what it actually takes to build a career in film, not just make one project.
Money. Awards. Audience. Ownership.
We talk features, shorts, web series, funding, packaging, distribution, and strategy, all through the lens of thinking like an executive producer.
