Get your swagger on
You know those days when you look and feel hotter than jalapenos?
Maybe you got a new haircut and you’re wearing your best boots; you’re unstoppable on those days. See an acquaintance-from-long-ago in the supermarket and you’ll waltz up with swagger, do double-kisses and say, “Darling, call me sometime!” read more…
Sulk for a minute, then make money.
It’s okay to have THOSE moments.
The ones where you feel overwhelmed, discouraged, or like pulling your gorgeous hair out (don’t do it!). Greatness comes from what we do in those moments.
Remember a time when everything was going right. When the world was your oyster. It probably wasn’t that long ago—yesterday, last week, last year. I bet things were on track because you were being awesome—proactive, positive, actionable, and grounded. read more…
What should I think when I hear your name?
What should I think when I hear your name? Think fast—it’s important!
Today, as a voice over actor, you need to be specialized. Today, you need to say what you do. Because if you don’t tell the world what to think about you—they’ll make it up.

With this truth in mind, let’s revisit the basics for a minute. What is a brand? read more…
Who really succeeds in this business?
You are smart, entrepreneurial and creative. But, it is the passion that you bring to your work that gets attention.
“There is no passion to be found playing small — in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.” -Nelson Mandela
Passion is essential — it is your passion for this business that will sustain you. But passion alone won’t cut it. read more…
We Are the Lucky Ones
Check out this recent Gallup poll: only 13% of people, worldwide, feel actively engaged by their jobs. We are the lucky ones.
Consider Seth Godin, Daniel Pink, Simon Sinek, and Brene Brown (watch her amazing TED talk), to name just a few, who advocate world-wide on the primacy of the artist, on creativity, and for right-brained thinkers to provide the means for us to create new paradigms so that we may up that percentage, perhaps by example, and pursue lives of meaning. read more…
What’s Your Number?
Shut the front, back and the studio door – it is 2015. Crazy, right? I don’t know about you, but I am seeing a lot of super-ambitious resolutioning out there. I say, first, take a deep breath and a look back at the good, the bad, and the nothin’ special so-so of 2014.
Then, pick a few things to resolve in your VO world that will really make a difference in your career this year. read more…
