The wish. From a Russian theatre school in Uzbekistan to performing on 42nd Street, my life, onstage, onscreen and off, has been led by the WISH. As an International Performer, Russian-trained Actress (mhmm, in Uzbekistan), Published Writer, Certified Dream Awake EFT Tapping Coach (250 hrs), Reiki Practitioner, and Lifelong Creative Rebel, I am on a mission to help you step into your full-blown artistic expression (+ attract soul-aligned success) while building the ensemble. Think of this podcast as your laboratory. Consider me your scene partner. And in this space, let your impulses run free. Each week, you’ll tap into unconventional tips, tools, techniques and the sacred connection to the partner. Whether an intimate solo episode or an inspiring chat with a guest, you’ll learn to transmute doubt into desire, transform self-sabotage into self-love, skyrocket your impact on the industry (without selling your soul), and create the #actorslife you dream of (on your terms). Turn down your brain. Trust your body. Lead with the wish. Together, let’s take the leap from Actor to Artist.

Rebel-Actor, do you have a big dream? Do you believe you have committed to that dream? Well, today’s guest is going to UPLEVEL the possibilities of your own dreams. I am so excited to introduce you to actress, singer and manifestor extraordinaire: Shanoza Majidova!
Shanoza Majidova was born in Termez City, Uzbekistan, grew up in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, and now lives in Brooklyn, NY. Shanoza is also a singer and participated in the adult TV Singing Competition "Zarafshon'' in Uzbekistan. After graduating from university in Malaysia, she moved to the USA in 2015. After three years, she took her first steps toward her acting dreams by studying at the Nashville Acting Studio in Nashville, Tennessee. She has also studied with Anthony Grasso at "Pearl Studios'' and spent over two years studying at T. Schreiber Studios, specifically with Terry Schreiber himself and Peter Miner. This past February, she started a new acting journey with Lana Shyptsina at the Russian School of Theatre Arts in NYC. Shanoza has appeared in over 7 short films, was part of a project called "A Sketch of New York'' produced by Joe DiNozi at the Producers Club Theatre in Manhattan, was invited by BAE TV to be part of a Military Training video, and is currently working on her own short film with her best friend and director, Fernanda Parrado.
From the moment Shanoza found her introverted self in the spotlight as a child, her yearning for the stage has been pulling her towards incredible feats of faith, persistence and awe-inspiring artistic leaps into her dream.
You will learn:
- How even as a child, Shanoza felt spiritually linked to the audience
- Why Shanoza could not commit to her dream from a young age, as an actress or a singer
- Shanoza received an offer to start her singing career and planned on applying to the Ilkhom Theatre but was forbidden from doing so
- What made Shanoza decide between choosing her singing career and acting career
- How Shanoza continually turned no into yes for herself
- How manifestation changed the game
- When immigrants move to new land, it is a rebirth, a life starting everything from zero
- What her first step towards her acting dream felt like
- How she feels in the NY/American acting industry as an immigrant, WOC, and English as her third language
- The myriad of acting schools Shanoza has studied at in NYC and the projects she has been a part of
- Why, as a community of artists, we speak the same language
- The wish as an instrument for healing and change
- In order to be a good actor, you have to know who you are internally
- Shanoza believes our industry and life will grow and be successful when we will be surrounded by people who ask these two questions:
What kind of change is most needed in the world right now?
And how can my work (as an actor) affect that change?
And SO much more. Shanoza and I are super excited to hear what resonates with you, and how it touches your dreams! Be sure to take a screenshot of this episode and tag @shanozaa and @serabanda in your Instagram stories to share your thoughts and takeaways!
