13183: Scheduling Success (Or Failure)

06/11/24 • 3 min

Hey there, hero!
One of the most satisfying things that can happen to us is that all goes according to plan.
That you set up a process, and you follow the path, you execute the steps, and it works out perfectly.
But ask yourself: how often does that really happen? Not very often, if at all, I would think.
It's really difficult, given all the variables in life, and especially in the performing arts, to set everything up to occur on a particular date and time. And that can be really frustrating, as there are bills to pay and obligations to meet that other people seem to put on the calendar for us.
A quick mindset shift for you in this episode: how to be at peace with not having your successes (or failures) timed out to a particular moment, and how to prepare for the ups and the downs.
Can you find joy in the random nature of the timing of your results, good or bad? Let me know in the comments below.

13182: Is It Too Late For You?

Hey there, hero!
This episode is for you if you feel like you missed the boat. That you're too old to be the artist you want to be. So...
We tell ourselves the stories we hear from others.
It's convenient and reliable.
Sometimes.
But sometimes, the stories we tell ourselves are different from the conventional wisdom. And it's actually all a choice. It depends on how much you want it.
If you want to switch up what you're doing in life...you can. Really.
And you actually have an advantage to switch things up. I'll tell you what that is, boomer (or GenXer) in this episode - I think you might welcome the option I present.
Are you thinking it's too late for you? Or do you have the resolve to ignore that easy assumption? Let me know in the comments below.

13184: Keeping All Your Audiobook's Voices Straight

Hey there, hero!
Had a great time on the VOBB (VO Booth Besties) with Jen, Jen and Aleesha:
https://www.boothbesties.com/
...and I had the chance to answer some questions from the attending audience of VO talent.
One question that came up was "How do you keep all the voices you create for the characters in an audiobook straight? How do you avoid using the wrong voice for a character by mistake?"
Great questions, and one that has a number of different possible answers. Let's explore exactly how to do that - especially as an actor (or writer).
How do you keep everyone straight? Is this a challenge for you? Let me know in the comments below.
