Sophie Skelton | Outlander Actress on the Role That Changed Her Life!

#920. Before Outlander, Sophie Skelton was working night shifts, facing rejection, and waiting on an audition she wouldn’t hear back about for nearly a year! Then came the trip to Los Angeles where everything went wrong — and the moment that would CHANGE HER LIFE! In this deeply honest conversation, Sophie opens up about the discipline that shaped her, the pressure of carrying an iconic role for nearly a decade, and the self-doubt that didn’t disappear when success finally arrived. She also shares the emotional responsibility of stepping into a real woman’s life in her new film, I Can Only Imagine 2, and why some stories stay with you long after the cameras stop rolling. This episode is about risk, resilience, and what happens when you trust yourself before anyone else does! If you’re LOVING this podcast, please follow and leave a rating and review below!
