  • Carrie Olsen - How She Leveraged Corporate Training and Podcasting Into A Wildly Successful VO Business And Another Spinoff
    Carrie Olsen is one of the original inspirations for this podcast and the idea of using a skillset to pursue a career and lifestyle that most people only dream of. Not only did Carrie leverage her corporate skills to pursue the craft of voiceover acting as a business from the beginning but she used the same skills to create courses and a model to teach others how to navigate the industry and pursue their own dreams.
    We pack a lot of information into this interview and whether you or someone you know is interested in voiceover as a career, you'll be inspired by Carrie's approach to a new industry, her commitment to the craft and business and optimizing her existing skills and expertise to create an entirely new career for herself.
