"Sarah helped me see my scripts in a totally different light. I was considering myself a jack of all trades but didn't realize that I had a speciality with my writing that she brought out of me. I've reframed my bio and feel much more confident in the meetings I've been getting as a result!" - Clayton L.

"Spencer was able to give it to me straight. He cut through the noise and made my game plan super clear on where I needed to take my script. Thank you so much Spencer!" - Alan F.

"In 30 minutes Anna helped me crack my second act that had been taking me months to figure out. THANK YOU STAGE 32. Wish I would have done this sooner." -Debbie M.
