Walker Clark did not set out to be an acting coach, life coach, business coach, or any other type of coach for that matter. He discovered what being an actor could do for individuals. Not the acting you already know about; Walker’s way of being an actor has given him and others permission to create new ways of being and acting in life—unencumbered by the past. Permission to act is the freedom and the possibility to be someone new: to be an actor—one who lives as the possibility of being anything. This discovery has left him free to be and free to engage and interact with life in the present, which allows for enormous power and impact with the people he coaches.
Permission to Act is a memoir of sorts. It started out as a means of answering a seemingly simple question posed by his father. You may be entertained. Coaches may discover coaching, parents may discover parenting, and athletes may discover their sport. As you take this journey with Walker you may discover what permission to act is for you…or maybe you’ll just laugh.
