  • How to Create Your First Short Film in 3 Simple Steps ft. Little
    Dec 31 2025

    This week on Hitting Your Mark, I’m sitting down with Little, an actress who decided it was time to stop waiting and create her first short film.

    After winning a scriptwriting competition, Little received a grant that gave her the opportunity to bring her vision to life — and in this conversation, we break down exactly how she did it. We walk through 3 simple steps to creating a short film, why actors can’t afford to only be actors anymore, and what really happens when you step into filmmaking for yourself.

    We also talk honestly about the other side of the process. Filmmaking is beautiful — but it’s also challenging. From creative pressure to problem-solving on the fly, Little shares what she’s learning along the way and how the filmmakers who inspire her helped shape her debut short film, Maleeka, set to premiere in Fall 2026.

    If you’ve been sitting on an idea, waiting for permission, or wondering how to take that first step — this episode is for you.

    This one is for the dreamers.

  • The Reality of A Working Actor ft. Nika King | Hitting Your Mark w/ Benjamin White
    Nov 21 2025

    This week on Hitting Your Mark, I sit down with actress and comedian Nika King—someone whose journey is as inspiring as it is powerful.

    You may know her from HBO’s hit series Euphoria. In our conversation, Nika shares the real story behind that life-changing audition. Even though she walked in intimidated by the big names going for the same role, she showed up, stayed grounded, and trusted that God would make room for her—and He did.

    We also dive into her long love for stand-up comedy. Years of reps, open mics, and grinding in clubs have now led her to her very first comedy special, which is out right now. Her story is a reminder that preparation meets opportunity in God’s timing.

    But at the heart of this episode, we talk faith. Nika opens up honestly about how hard it was early in her career to keep God at the center in an industry that sometimes makes you feel like that’s not welcomed. Now? She puts God front and center—and if you don’t like it… keep it pushing.

    This conversation is for the dreamers, the ones holding onto purpose even when the path feels uncertain. You’ll walk away encouraged, laughing, and reminded that staying true to who you are will always lead you to where you're meant to be.

  • She Almost Quit Acting… Until One DM Changed Everything! ft. Lynne Davis | Hitting Your Mark w/ Benjamin White
    Nov 13 2025

    In this week’s episode of Hitting Your Mark, I sit down with actress Lynne Davis, who has been pursuing her passion for acting for over 25 years. Her journey hasn’t been easy — filled with ups, downs, and moments where she almost walked away from it all.

    We talk about the moments that nearly broke her, how she found her strength again, and the wild story of how I randomly DM’d her to be in my latest short film Our First Fight — a message she thought was a catfish, but ended up being a major blessing for both of us.

    This conversation is a reminder for anyone who’s been chasing their dream for a long time and doubting if it will ever come to pass: don’t give up. Sometimes all it takes is one opportunity to change everything.

  • Being Set Apart ft. Jennifer Rockett | Hitting Your Mark w/ Benjamin White
    Jul 2 2025

    For singer and actress Jen Rockett, “your gift will make room for you” isn’t just a Bible verse—it’s the story of her life.

    She didn’t chase every opportunity. Many found her. Not because she was loud about it, but because she was faithful with the gift she was given.

    In this episode, Jen shares how growing up in church gave her both her first audience and her foundation. We talk about what it really means to be set apart—by talent, by preparation, and ultimately, by God.

    And we explore this idea: being gifted isn’t just about your ability to sing or act… it’s about the ability to shift an atmosphere.

    A powerful convo on calling, creativity, and trusting the doors God opens.

    This one is for the dreamers.
