If you've been thinking about Voice Over work in addition to being an actor, this episode is for you! Voice acting today has become a massive industry. We’re talking audiobooks, podcasts, e-learning modules, video games, meditation apps, smart assistants, and even—wait for it—AI-generated clones of real voices. (Yeah, it’s a little creepy. But hey, if Siri ever sounds like Morgan Freeman, I won’t complain.)

So, here’s the truth. Every actor, no matter how successful, goes through what I like to call the “in-between.” It’s that awkward stretch of time when you’re not on set, not auditioning, and frankly, not sure when or if the next opportunity will come. And that’s hard. Especially when you’re watching your peers book jobs, or you're scrolling through casting sites that just don’t seem to offer anything for you.

And worse, maybe your bank account is saying “no” to classes, workshops, or even just a night out. So now you’re not acting, not training, and definitely not feeling creatively fulfilled. Sound familiar? If so, I want you to know—you’re not alone.

Today’s topic is called “Brain Matters – Actor

Psychology and What We Tell Ourselves.” If you’ve ever been in an audition, on

set, or in rehearsal and caught yourself thinking, “I’m not good enough,”

“I’m just not talented,” or “I’ll never make it,”—then guess

what? You are NOT alone! But here’s the thing—those little voices in our heads?

They’re not the best critics of our work. So today, we’re going to talk about

how to turn down that mental noise and reframe our mindset for success. Sound

good? Let’s do this!
