Welcome to another weekly edition of Side Hustle Spotlight where we talk to actors and filmmakers at different levels of their career who have used their other passions to capitalize on a fulfilling side hustle. These folks no longer have to—or have never had to—do work that drained their energy and made them miserable. Be sure to check out the original article for inspiration on discovering your side hustle. This week’s actor was a child star who is currently performing in his stage debut! He genuinely helps people get their lives back in an extremely honorable job dealing with drug addictions.
Name: Sam Mandel
Side hustle: Chief operating officer of the Ketamine Clinics of Los Angeles
Years acting: 13
Favorite acting credits/opportunities: I had a blast working with Chris Rock as recurring guest star Fisher on “Everybody Hates Chris.” My favorite would have to be the role I’m performing right now, making my stage debut as the lead in the west coast premiere of a newly revised version of “The Chosen” at the Fountain Theatre in Hollywood. We opened Jan. 20 and it’s been a life-changing experience for me; by far my most challenging and fulfilling role to date.
