This week, we chat with Danielle Gould — currently working inside the legendary halls of 30 Rock on the 50th season of Saturday Night Live.

Danielle takes us behind the scenes of what it's really like leading up to a live show, and shares the journey that got her there. From internships and cold emails to landing a spot in Lorne Michaels’ office while still at NYU, Danielle reflects on the power of persistence, the importance of staying human in professional spaces, and how fear is only a mindset. Oh, and she does all of this while navigating some major pinch-me moments like trying not to cry too hard when Paul McCartney is rehearsing in front of her.

Listen in to learn how you can practice genuine, authentic networking to land your dream job. Welcome to the 50/50 Family, Danielle!
