If you're not having any fun then you're definitely doing something wrong.

I am super pumped about this episode an interview with the one and only Wilmer Valderana.

And for those that don't know who he is, he's an American actor, singer, producer and television personality

best known for the role, Fez, in that sitcom, that 70s show.

And he's done many other shows including American Horror Television Series from Dusk Till Dawn.

He was also the host of the MTV series, Yomama, and voiced a character of Manny in the children's show, Handy Manny,

in 2006 to 2012, and had recurring roles on Grey's Anatomy and NCIS.

But more than his fame of TV and acting producing, he is the spokesperson for the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute.

And is the founder of their Ready to Lead program which educates and empowers the Latino youth.

He also works with President Obama's Organization for Action Campaign on future events evolving immigration reform and education.

I really love this interview because it's all about dreams, possibilities, what's possible that we can create in our lives,

in the mindset that is necessary in order for us to achieve these things.

And in this interview we talk about what Wilmer learned about an opportunity while growing up in Venezuela and moving here in his young teen years to the United States

and the biggest advantage he had by being an immigrant and coming here.

We also talk about how he cultivated fearless confidence as an actor even when he didn't understand English at the time.

Why you should fear success over your failures.

We also talk about what Johnny Depp told him that shifted everything in his career when he was at the top.
