12 Lessons from The Acting Room can save us

Humanity is in shambles. Humans are more disconnected, anxious, and purposeless than ever. But what if the solution isn’t another self-help book… but the tools actors have been using for decades to access truth, presence, and real humanity?


In acting HUMAN, award-winning acting coach Erik Lingvall (founder of Catapult Acting Studios) reveals the “acting HUMAN Method” — a practical, easily applicable approach that takes the most powerful tools from the acting room and applies them to real life.


Drawing from nearly two decades of coaching actors who’ve landed roles in projects like Wednesday, Euphoria, Ozark, Cobra Kai, and more, Erik shares 12 transformative lessons on letting go, listening to feel, owning the moment, and living as an Empathetic Warrior.


Featuring insightful contributions from actor and mental health advocate Olivia Healey, acting HUMAN is your invitation to play the game of life differently — and win by enjoying the ride.
