We had the good fortune of connecting with Danielle Taylor and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Danielle, is there something you believe many others might not?
The idea that “no sleep, only grind” equates to more financial/career success. I hate the fact that society makes one feel as though they aren’t deserving of success unless they’re killing themselves to get there. I am big on mental health, resting, healing and taking a break if necessary !

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I can honestly say that I am no where near where I’d like to be in my career as of today. I am however in the process of expanding my knowledge in all areas of my career field. Along side acting, modeling, writing and directing are huge passions of mines as well. This career field comes with a lot of challenges because you’re being judged and compared on a daily, but I have overcome the way pathway into comparing myself in many ways. One, believing that when its my time, no one will be able to take that away form me. Two, theirs no other Danielle Taylor in this industry or any other industry. Lastly, its vital to celebrate the small wins as well!

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I am a home body at heart but I have a few places on my Itinerary! If were talking about eating, My favorite go to spot would be Bar Taco. Theres beautiful scenery, a creative drink menu and eve better taco menu. If we’re talking about something active, I would suggest Ponce city market or one of the many bowling alleys in Atlanta.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Firstly, I would like to dedicate my shoutout to my sister. Since the closing of all recording studios due to the Pandemic, my sister has been there for me through every late audition, every last minute audition, every stressful audition to every crazy long auditions. I would also like to shoutout my mother. This career field can definitely take a toll on you confidence & mental health, but my mother has been here motivating, encouraging & pushing me along the way.
