Christa B Allen is an American actress, originally from Southern California who resides in Los Angeles. She started her career at a young age when she played the younger version of Jennifer Garner’s character in the movie “13 going 30”. She was also one of the main characters in the very popular show Revenge. We were very happy to get a chance to chat with her, learn more about her journey, and see what she is up to.
Christa B Allen: Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. – Marianne Williamson
This was my favorite quote long before Williamson’s presidential bid. I prefer her as a spiritual guru, to be honest.

Christa B Allen: Auditioning, studying, and executing social media campaigns. I work alone for the most part, and I really enjoy each aspect; from dreaming up the concept to writing copy, styling images or video, to shooting.
Christa B Allen: Cate Blanchett as an actress, Elon Musk as an innovator, Beyoncé as a divine ruler. I’ve met both of those last two folks within the last year, and it took everything in me to not tear up because it really felt like my dreams coming true.
Christa B Allen: Being surrounded by happy, healthy friends and family while fulfilling one’s life purpose.
Christa B Allen: Aerial silks. And travel!
Christa B Allen: As a guest; turning up presentable, in good spirits, preferably with a small gift. As a host; making sure your guests’ every want or need is met. In any situation; a sense of humor.
Christa B Allen: Leaving things all over the house (or whatever room I’m in) … I spread out everywhere, which means I have to tidy up every. Single. Day.
Christa B Allen: I need to make meditation a much more regular habit!
Anytime I’ve been fully nude and a little tipsy after lunch on a beach in Europe. Heaven!!
Tacos. Being from Southern California, it is part of my DNA.
Living with intention. Also witnessing others live with intention.
When I was 11, Jennifer Garner advised me to always maintain a full life outside of acting. She said that actors lose the ability to play ‘real’ people when they stop living a ‘real’ life.
Christa B Allen: I wish I had a more romantic morning routine as they espouse in so many brilliant self-improvement books, but really, I wake up, I do wake my dog up, she comes to snuggle me, and then I make coffee. If I’m lucky, I get a workout in.
