Hollywood billboards, a $160 million franchise, and a film with Tom Hanks ... and yet the most interesting thing about Travis Jeffery is none of that. In this episode he talks about rejection, the grief and self-destruction, and his own creative project that cracked open and onwards into the slow quiet work of building a life that actually holds. On day two of filming Birthright, Travis got a call that changed everything. His new film Birthright is in cinemas now!
