Facing Fear Like A Stunt Player
Coping with fear is a big part of being a stuntwoman. Since fear surely has reared its head in our culture today, I was asking myself “How can I share with others what I learned about fear management? How can they use that in their lives?”
What if your life is, in fact, your movie? And all the jobs in the production, all the roles in the story are in fact simply parts of you?
• You are the director who decides what to do.
• You are the star of your own life.
True or True?
Yes, and if you are those,
• The production assistant getting coffee,
• The camera operator recording the moments,
• The makeup artist making you look your best,
• The costumer choosing your clothes and
• The cook on the set feeding you.
• You cast the players in your life.If you are all of these, then you must also be the stunt player, who undertakes the dangerous tasks.
I love hearing from readers so please reach out to me. Post a comment and tell me about how you are coping with your fears. What would you like to ask about coping with fear and training your inner stunt person to leap tall buildings?
Thank you for spending time with me.

AMAZON #1 BESTSELLER!
This Behind-the-Scenes Tell-All About Doubling for Celebrity Superstars Also Reveals the Compelling Life Story of an Insecure Hollywood Arrival Who Rises to the Top of Her Field, But Pays a Hefty Price.

Addiction

Chauvinism

Big Egos collide with the surprising kindness of superstars.
Discover the magic and the tragic stories of many great films & TV shows through the eyes of a stuntwoman. Dalton reveals what it took to hang over cliffs, get hit by a moving car, drop from five stories up, dodge an avenue full of speeding cars–and to ignore the Universe’s more gentle prompts that it was time to quit and follow her passion into acting full-time or teaching acting.
The resulting career-ending spinal injury has a story of its own, how she researched medical and alternative paths that form the heart of what she shares with the world today. “What stands out in this book is the indomitable spirit the author has, despite the extraordinary price she paid for her stellar career–including misogyny, a miscarriage, and a life-long back injury. And each juicy story she relays in her fascinating chronicle, brings home an important life lesson for the reader–one that she learned the hard way.

Author’s Bio:
![lisa-loving-dalton](https://jaquo.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Lisa-Loving-Dalton-220x300.jpg)

Always seeking and finding the silver lining, she has made the most of whatever life threw at her. She says, “I spill stuff, trip and drip all of the time so I made a career out of it. My advice: Embrace what is as perfect.”
