Tired of being told to "get out of your head"? This episode of Your Improv Brain explores a different approach. Discover how your active inner voice, often seen as a distraction, can actually become a powerful tool for your improv.

Host Jen deHaan and guest Sabrina Banes discuss practical ways to understand and even harness your mental chatter for more grounded, spontaneous, and less anxious performances.

How can an inner monologue help you with a core long-form improv concept? Jen lets you know near the end of the episode.

You can also watch this episode on YouTube at the Your Improv Brain channel.
