Summary

Liz and Sarah debate whether they should be cheerleaders or naysayers when offering advice and insight to people thinking about starting a career in Hollywood. To dream crush or not to dream crush? Inspired by her recent family reunion, Sarah suggests “planting activity seeds” in Take A Hike. Some seed suggestions — setting out a puzzle, a chat pack, or a board game. This week’s Hollywood Hack is for the parents out there: If you’re going on a work trip, show your kids that you’re excited about it. Finally, Sarah recommends a memoir: Locally Laid: How We Built a Plucky, Industry-Changing Egg Farm— From Scratch by Lucie B. Amundsen.
