In this episode of The Alpha Renaissance, filmmaker Addison Henderson breaks down how to build your own lane in an industry that isn’t a meritocracy. From Buffalo’s East Side to independent film sets and Hollywood collaborations, Addison shares how discipline, ownership, relationships, and vision matter more than talent alone. We talk about why waiting for permission is a losing strategy, how to navigate gatekeepers, build momentum without validation, and create work that forces recognition. This conversation is for creatives, entrepreneurs, and builders who want control over their path, mastery over their craft, and long-term success in industries where fairness isn’t guaranteed.
