Breaking Into Voiceover: From Stability to Soulwork
Description
In this heartwarming and deeply reflective episode, we sit down with voice actor, educator, and self-proclaimed “VO Dad” June Yoon. From immigrating to the U.S. at 14 and discovering his passion for performance in a high school improv class, to walking away from a stable teaching career to pursue full-time voice acting, June's story is anything but conventional. He opens up about the pursuit of happiness, navigating uncertainty, and the power of choosing authenticity over expectation.
Listeners will hear about the pressures of the “American Dream,” the value of mentorship in creative spaces, and how joy can be a radical act—especially in industries that often prioritize hustle over health. This is a conversation about identity, resilience, and the fun (yes, fun!) of filing LLC compliance documents when you’re finally doing what you love.
Whether you’re a creative professional, a teacher, or just someone trying to find your lane, June’s journey reminds us that it’s never too late to break into something new—especially when happiness is on the other side.
