An Idea To Move You

Maybe you've seen the Nike commercial that says most people quit their New Years Resolutions by the second Friday in January and that it's called Quitter's Day.

We need a name for those days when you don't want to do the thing you know you should do and you do it anyway.

You should call those Reader Is Kickin' Ass Days.

Take stock of those, because they beget more of themselves.

A Thought to Touch You*

Sending a cold email feels vulnerable. You’re putting yourself out there, and there’s a chance you’ll be ignored, rejected, or even—brace yourself—called annoying.

But here’s the thing: no one builds a successful career by staying in their comfort zone.

The voiceover world is competitive, and if you’re not actively putting yourself in front of the right people, someone else will.

That’s not meant to scare you—it’s meant to light a fire under your ass.

You’ve probably heard about cold emailing and thought, “That’s just spam, right?” Or maybe the idea of bothering someone with an unsolicited email gives you flashbacks to awful networking mixers where everyone exchanges business cards and fake smiles.

I get it—cold emailing feels like uncharted territory for a lot of voice actors.

But here’s the truth: it’s how I built my 6-figure VO business.
