Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Podcast Collaboration & Burnout
Jamie-Lynn Sigler talks about how collaboration is the key to success in many aspects of living, not just the arts. We talk about how important it is to have relationships with other creators and how having the perspective of others helps us develop our work.
Pajama Pants was created as a loosely formatted podcast to give the flexibility to create experiences, discussions, and memorable moments between her co-hosts Rob Iler and Kassem G. A podcast where you can listen in on one discussion with three very different points of view.
Jamie also shares her experience with multiple sclerosis and how she uses mindset and movie magic to accomplish onscreen and offscreen success.
Inspiring all around!

I’ve met a lot of people do to some of my earlier career choices. 🙌 Insta sure has been a fun way to entertain and update y’all on life happenings, tho no social platform has been as instrumental in successfully keeping me connected to the talented people I’ve met along my journey on and off camera more so than #LinkedIn. 🙏
👉 If we aren’t connected on LinkedIn - hop in my DMs and I’ll send you a direct link.
🎙Did you know @judifoxrocks and I have a live interactive audio show every Thursday at 4p EST on LinkedIn?
✅ Check my profile and if it doesn’t show that we are close friends, and you’d like to be, then let me know and I’ll invite you to be. Close friends are less likely to miss my content as I do not post every day/week on this platform.
Also- to all my creator and creative friends, colleagues, coworkers a fellow show-people: there has never been more opportunity for creators on LinkedIn as there is now. I’m having a blast helping friends get hired, launch businesses, and get discovered every week. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me in my DMs for some help or guidance on the platform.

Danielle Fishel’s successful habits are to stay focused on the task at hand and prioritize her responsibilities.
One of the strategies Danielle uses to stay creative is she focuses on the task at hand.
You may know Danielle best from her role as Topanga in the hit show Boy Meets World. Her iconic hair has been making headlines since the 1990s, so it’s no surprise this multi-passionate actress would go on to create a natural hair care line, Be Free by Danielle Fishel.
Danielle, you are so creative and driven! I love that you prioritize your family time. It’s so important and inspiring! Thank you for coming on my podcast. Love you!

Ananda Lewis talks about what talent we have inside ourselves and why it plays an important role in our lives.
If MTV’s TRL or BET’s Teen Summit were part of your must-watch programming as a teen, it’s time to double down on denim and jump back to the 90’s as we talk about her approach to creativity, the importance of timing, and her approach to finding balance on and off the camera (hint: consistent transparency).
Ananda there is so much love, goodness and creativity in you! I adore you! You have this amazing light that shines bright in everything you do!
