Make a Lucrative Living in the Creative Arts—with Wendy Wilkins
Wendy Wilkins looked successful on the outside. She was a top-producing real estate agent, making $500K a year and driving a Porsche. But she couldn’t get out of bed in the morning. That’s when she rewrote her definition of success and started following her gut to a career in the creative arts.
Today, Wendy is an award-winning actress, writer and filmmaker currently featured in the dark comedy Deany Bean Is Dead on Amazon Prime. She is also the author of Sex, Love & Cops: A Memoir of My Five Years as a Young Cop and the former #1 realtor in Australia, personally selling more than $1B in real estate. Now Wendy lives in Hollywood, California, where she is on a mission to make the world a better place by way of the creative arts.
On this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, Wendy joins Anjel to share her journey as a multidimensional creative being and explain how she has leveraged the performing arts to make a lucrative living as an ‘actorpreneur.’ She describes the skills around listening and building rapport that served her as a cop, realtor and performer, introducing us to her stepping-stone approach to making major life change.
