Welcome back to the Friday LA Diary!

Los Angeles Actor Diary 

Self motivation. That’s the stuff that can get tricky if you’re having a down day or you’ve had a week of no auditions. And the truth is, that this week there’s been no auditions, but the podcast has been really exciting and busy here in LA so I’ve found that the pod is letting me throw myself creatively into prepping and researching up coming guests. The podcast has keep me motivated and propelling forward. As we near Fearlessly Failing’s 6th birthday I feel more and more grateful that this podcast exists. It’s been a passion project that keep giving back to me, especially when I need that little glimmer of light to keep me staying on course and focused on the dream.

So thank you to anyone out that who listens to the podcast, it’s such a cherished part of my life that wouldn’t exist without you, the listener. And if you haven’t listened to it before, it’s called Fearlessly Failing with Lola Berry and you can listen to it wherever you listen to pods (apple, Spotify, iheart radio app, you name it).

So this week, all in all has been a positive one. Let’s start with the Aussie Christmas party; it was huge! 250 people for lunch on Santa Monica Pier, then it turned into a wild afterparty that 1500 attended. The highlights for me were catching up with lots of lovely Aussies I hadn’t seen for a while and the Aussie food. The menu was headed up by two Aussie Chefs living here in America (Dan Churchill and Monty Koludrovic) and the steak was the stand out for me.

I actually ran into this week’s pod guest at the Aussie Chrissy party, Monty Franklin (who’s been on the pod before) but we got chatting and he came back on the pod ahead of his global tour, he’s got a brill movie he’s working on too. Episode comes out Sunday arvo American time, Monday morning Aussie time. If you’re an ambitious creative then this is the ep for you. He’s honest, frank and loves being an Australian.

Then we caught up with out mates for dinner Monday night, Matt made an Italiano feast with days worth of left overs from homemade focaccia to fresh biscotti from scratch. It was really nice to just have a chilled dinner and hang with mates and their pups.

I’ve been trying out a new local yoga studio this week too, its called One Down Dog and there’s 3 locations across LA, def work a visit if you’re in Los Angeles and missing yoges, they have 3 week passes for $79

Speaking of yoges, my friend (and fellow yoga teacher) Meg and I are putting our minds together to lead a yoga retreat later in the year in Palm Springs. We’re just in planning mode at the moment but I think it will be lots of fun, I’m about to focus on the menu ideas after I finish this diary entry. So I’ll keep you posted, but its shaping up nicely.

This week’s read: my friend Alex lended me this book: Amid Clouds and Bones by Ella Fields, I’m 3 chapters in an loving it, this fantasy faeries and it’s shaping up to be enemies to lovers. So far, so good. I’ll report back.

We’re off to Santa Barbara tomorrow, we’ve never been but out neighbours have a ranch there so we’re looking forward to our weekend adventure! I’ll let you know what it’s like and might even have to create Santa Barbara travel guide podcast episode, some sweet friends have given me such great recommendations.

Righto, thats my week in lovely Los Angeles!
