Emmanuel Schrieke opens up about the profound emotional toll of fame, mental health struggles during the pandemic, and the spiritual resilience that helped her survive. She reveals how she nearly collapsed emotionally while filming 'Superman & Lois' after her longtime manager took his life, yet found healing through therapy, meditation, and the compassion of showrunner Todd Helbing. What stands out is her radical honesty about vulnerability: she doesn't hide her anxiety, her tears, or her need for a nap as a form of self-care. Her journey from being typecast as 'Entourage's' Sloan to embracing complex roles like Lana Lang in 'Superman & Lois' reveals a deep commitment to authenticity over image. She shares how her meditation practice—22 minutes of transcendental breathing with the mantra 'lichim'—has become her anchor, and how the simple act of saying 'I'm not okay' can be revolutionary. Most strikingly, she speaks of the quiet power in being seen: when fans approach her in grocery stores to say 'thank you for speaking up,' it’s not just gratitude—it’s proof that representation matters. Her message is clear: true strength isn’t in hiding pain, but in showing up with it, and in doing so, helping others feel less alone.
Meditate for 22 minutes daily using a mantra like 'lichim' to create mental stillness and reduce anxiety.
When overwhelmed, pause and ask: 'What is the lesson here?' to reframe hardship as growth.
Rejection is not a verdict—shelve it. You can’t control it, so don’t let it control you.
Therapy is not a crutch—it’s a tune-up for your soul, especially when you’re not sure you’re broken.
You don’t have to be perfect to be powerful—your truth, even when messy, is what connects with people.

Opening: The Power of Vulnerability
Michael Rosenbaum welcomes listeners to 'Inside of You,' setting the tone for a raw, intimate conversation with Emmanuel Schrieke. He emphasizes the podcast’s mission to explore the inner lives of creatives, not just their careers.
Anxiety, Tears, and the Need for Therapy
Schrieke opens up about living with anxiety, crying when angry, and the importance of weekly therapy. She describes therapy as a 'tune-up'—not a sign of weakness, but a necessary maintenance for mental health.
Spirituality, Grief, and the Afterlife
Schrieke shares her spiritual beliefs, rooted in both Jewish tradition and new-age faith. She speaks of her parents’ passing, her father’s illness, and how she still feels their presence through subtle signs.
Meditation as Daily Discipline
Schrieke details her 22-minute daily meditation practice using the mantra 'lichim,' comparing it to a workout for the mind. She reveals that even Martin Scorsese meditates three times a day.
The Emotional Weight of Entourage and Lana Lang
Schrieke reflects on being typecast as Sloan from 'Entourage' and the emotional toll of playing Lana Lang during the pandemic. She discusses the pressure of living up to a legacy and the isolation of filming in a lockdown.
“I was struggling. And, I mean, to the point where I didn't even know that I could struggle so badly with depression and anxiety. I didn't know. I've never had that before.”
“He went against the grain. He was different. He actually was compassionate. Beyond. And was like, I get it and I'll help you. I'm here for you.”
“I just want to tell you thank you so much. Like you can't possibly know what this does for our community.”
