could start down the psychology “interview” side. copy some sample interviews. basically trying to find soft skills. Strength’s Finder would be better for that... Grab a sample...
https://magazinec.com/style/ana-de-armas-is-conquering-hollywood-in-record-time/ “starring Daniel Craig, Chris Evans and Toni Collette, and directed by Star Wars: The Last Jedi’s Rian Johnson. She’ll soon be off to New Orleans to film Adrian Lyne’s erotic thriller Deep Water, based on a novel by Patricia Highsmith, opposite Ben Affleck. Next April will bring the release of No Time to Die, otherwise known as James Bond No. 25, in which she plays, yes, the new Bond girl. Also in 2020, she’ll appear as one of America’s most iconic stars in Netflix’s Marilyn Monroe biopic Blonde, based on the novel by Joyce Carol Oates.De Armas grew up in Havana. Her dad, Ramon, worked as a teacher and studied philosophy in Russia, and her mother, also named Ana, worked in human resources; her brother, Javier, is a photographer. As a teenager, she decided she wanted to be an actor, and at age 14 began studying at the National Theater School of Cuba. After starring in a few Cuban-Spanish co-productions, she left her native country at 18 for Madrid to prove herself, with only 200 euros. She was almost immediately cast in a television show, made several Spanish-language movies, and then, at 25, de Armas decided it was time to pack her bags for Tinseltown.”

At the age of 14, she began her studies at the National Theatre School of Havana, where she graduated after 4 years. At the age of 16, she made her first film, Una rosa de Francia (2006), directed by Manuel Gutiérrez Aragón. A few titles came after until she moved to Spain, where she continued her film career, and started on TV. In 2014 she moved to Los Angeles. She has appeared in films such as War Dogs (2016), Hands of Stone (2016) and Blade Runner 2049 (2017).          - IMDb Mini Biography By:                      Ana de Armas's representative                       Spouse (1)                                   Marc Clotet                     (July 2011            - 2013) (    divorced)                           Trade Mark (1)                  Striking hazel-green eyes   Trivia (8)              Was born in Cuba and moved to Spain when she was 19.                  She has central heterochromia. While both of her eyes are green, they have a brown center. In addition, her irises have small dark-brown spots.                  She only spoke Spanish before moving to the USA. When she arrived in Los Angeles, she was so determined to audition for parts that she pushed herself to learn English, which she managed to do within two years. Her first-ever English-speaking part was in Knock Knock (2015), and it all went from there.                  Distant relative of Danny Pino's maternal grandfather Pedro Gonzalo de Armas.                  Ex-daughter-in-law of Dr. Bonaventura Clotet.                  In a relationship with Ben Affleck [2020].                  She is the first Latina actress to play a Bond girl.                  She auditioned for the role of Selina Kyle/Catwoman in The Batman (2021).   Personal Quotes (16)              I think women, we are very interesting. We have a lot to say, and sometimes it's frustrating how all the lead parts are for men.                  I want to try as many different roles as I can. I want to do everything.                  My childhood memories are amazing; I had freedom in every way - but I see everything from a different perspective now that I live outside.                  I always need to keep moving.                  I don't want to be in the spotlight, ever! I don't know why I got in this profession!                  You can always go back to the place where you were comfortable, the place where you're from.                  Moving to L.A. was hard. I had a career in Spain, and you have to forget your ego. I was a nobody again.                  I know it sounds like I'm playing all these wives and girlfriends, but they're not waiting at home. I wear the pants.                  I think I had 'Super Mario' and 'Tetris' around, and that's it.                  My grandparents were from Spain, and I had a Spanish passport.                  I don't mind playing someone's girlfriend or wife if I have something to say, if I bring something to the picture, if I can be strong and powerful and say smart things. If not, then it's just boring.                  I didn't get to play many video games when I was growing up.                  I put a lot of trust in my stylist, Micaela Erlanger.                  It's hard to explain to my parents what's going on. You can't compare Hollywood with Cuba. I didn't even know I could dream this.                  I can't stay in one place for too long.                  The first 'Blade Runner' is a cool movie. It's a classic. Just to be part of the sequel was such an honor and a beautiful learning experience.

At 89, Frank Gehry is a superhero in the world of architecture, design and sculpture. Yet, using the F-bomb to make his point, Gehry has publicly denounced the label “starchitect.” He loathes the term. He sees himself as a regular guy, albeit one who has revolutionized his industry.
Acclaimed late architect Philip Johnson spoke for many when he  called Gehry “the greatest architect we have today.” If further proof were needed, here’s the ultimate confirmation: Gehry voiced his own character on The Simpsons in 2005, lampooning himself with an alter ego who drew inspiration for a new building from a crumpled ball of paper on the ground.
The icon’s star power shows no signs of dimming as he approaches his ninth decade. Small in stature and unassuming in a Nike T-shirt and casual pants when he shows up to work at the massive, warehouse-style headquarters of Gehry Partners in Playa Vista, he is many things at once: sweetly humble with a childlike curiosity that makes him seem a decade younger, and also brave and often brash, offering his opinion with no regrets. Sitting on a plywood chair of his own design, he’s soft-spoken—except when excitedly holding forth on President Donald Trump (“he’s a nutcase”) or the red tape wrapped around green living (“being green, low-cost [housing]—all of those things are technical issues and social issues”). His personality not only fills the room, it amplifies it.

“There’s a lot of rules that somehow have crept into our society that have stopped a lot of people from living authentic and free and inspiring lives. I feel like anything we can do to kind of remove those barriers for people…”

+++++
There are so many unnecessary “rules” in society- what to wear, what to eat, how to fix your hair, who to love, how to define gender- and what are they really for?  To make someone else comfortable? 
(I’d say unwritten rules, but unfortunately some of them are actually codified in law, too.)
I hope we can all find ways to live our authentic, free and inspiring lives.

In the six all-consuming years that Dan Levy spent as co-creator, showrunner, producer, director, writer, sweater wearer and lead actor on the universally beloved sitcom Schitt’s Creek, there wasn’t much time for anything else. Like a social life. Or sleep. Some weeks, he says, between the 5 a.m. call times and all-night rewrites, he didn’t get more than eight hours’ sleep in seven days.
https://magazinec.com/style/who-framed-dan-levy/
+++++
Eight hours of sleep in seven days isn’t okay for anyone.  
The fact that society venerates people who deny their basic personal needs is wrong.  As a whole, we need to set better boundaries and stop letting businesses exploit us. 
Sleep is a biological necessity.  Make it a priority.

So he cold-called a glasses manufacturer in Toronto to see if they’d help him develop his own range at a more democratic price. “And we’re still working with them today.”

You don’t know unless you ask.  A cold call led to DL Eyewear.  Sometimes you just have to ask.

“As a Canadian, I grew up spending a lot of time in Los Angeles and never liked it. I didn’t even know where to start. It’s so big. It’s intimidating.
[Then] I realized that I was looking at Los Angeles as this total experience, as opposed to loving the fact that L.A. is made up of small, incredible neighborhoods.
You can’t go about loving the city as a whole, you have to find your way into it through a neighborhood that suits you.”
-Dan Levy, C Magazine, https://magazinec.com/style/who-framed-dan-levy/

+++++
First, he’s right that LA is an amazing city of neighborhoods, you just have to find the right ones for you. 
And second, like any intimidating task, it always helps to break it down into smaller chunks.  Like neighborhoods.

And right now he’s focusing on the recent relaunch of D.L. Eyewear, a company he started in his hometown of Toronto about 10 years ago. 
“But when the show happened, I realized that I didn’t have the energy or manpower to continue to build this business,” he explains.

I love this.  Even Dan Levy has to prioritize what’s important and sometimes that means letting things go for a while.  We can’t do it all, at least not well.  Decide what’s important to you right now and let the rest go.
