Video version of this Episode below!!!This is part 2 of an interview with Vladik Miagkostoupov.Working on stages around the world since the age of 9, including Cirque du Soleils „Dralion“ and the “Lido” in Paris and winning multiple awards, including the gold medal at „Cirque de Demain“ (Paris), he also started successfully producing the soundtracks for his and his wife´s new acts and remains a humble and super nice guy. In this interview we dig into:

• His upbringing in a circus family, including their escape from communist russia to the US.
• His advice for up and coming artists.
• How he is coping with nervousness.
• Things to be careful about in negotiations.
• How not to get bored with performing the same act for years or even decades.
• Things he is struggling with in show business.

Vladik was very generous with his time and provided a ton of great tips and insight. That´s why I decided to cut this interview into three parts to be published in short succession.Be sure to sign up to the Fit4theGig Newsletter or subscribe to the Podcast to get notified as soon as the next episode is available.
