Dutch actress Noa Kolsteren has spoken candidly about her journey back to the popular ⁣television series GTST (goede Tijden, Slechte Tijden – Good Times, Bad Times), emphasizing a deep sense of belonging and the importance of constructive feedback.

A Surprising Re-Entry

Kolsteren recounted a moment of uncertainty after initially‍ leaving the conservatory. “Sometimes you⁣ have to take your word for it,” she reflected. When she contacted the show to inform them ⁤of her decision to leave the conservatory,she was‌ met with an unexpected invitation. “They said,’If you ever want to go back,call us.’ You hear that frequently enough, so I didn’t quite believe it. When I called…to my surprise they⁣ immediately said: ‘Come back than!'” The actress expressed profound happiness upon being written​ back into the ​series, stating, “When I heard I was ‌being written back into the series, I was⁢ so happy. I knew: this is where I belong.”

The Value of Honest Critique

Kolsteren values open⁤ communication ‍on set, appreciating both positive reinforcement and ⁤constructive criticism.‍ She recalled an⁢ instance at age sixteen when she returned to filming after the summer ​break with​ a hoarse voice. The GTST producer advised her, “You have to watch your voice a bit.”

“I felt bad for a⁤ moment, but he was right. You grow from that kind of feedback. You have to stand​ up sometimes.”

Juggling Passions

Despite her⁤ demanding acting schedule, ⁣Kolsteren continues ⁢to pursue her education – currently undertaking a part-time degree in Social Work -⁣ and her musical endeavors. “It takes time, but above all ‍it brings a lot of joy,” she explained. “I​ feel​ good about everything I do and I like to invest in it: singing lessons, speech therapy, research… thatS part of it.”

A Dream Reconsidered

Kolsteren previously discussed her experience at the conservatory with RTL Boulevard, revealing that despite it being ​a⁢ long-held ambition⁣ – “That had been my childhood​ dream as I was ten years old” ‌- the habitat ultimately didn’t feel right for her.
