Description

Voice over can be a lonely business. We spend our days in booths, often on our own, only seeing the outside world through social media notifications and email threads. B


ut success rarely happens in isolation. It happens when we’re pushed, directly or indirectly, by the people around us.


In this episode, Marc shares the honest story behind a question that’s been fueling his own business lately: Who’s pushing you?


From watching Mike Pongracz and Matt Fogarty dominate the commercial breaks during the World Series, to working with coach Brad Hyland, to being challenged by colleagues like Samantha Damiano and inspired by speakers like Rider and Kelly Moscinski… Marc reveals the people who have pushed him to level up. Even when the push stung a little.


You’ll hear how:




  • Inspiration from peers can become a powerful motivator




  • Coaches, colleagues, and even casual acquaintances can challenge your growth




  • Being open to the push leads to new opportunities




  • Complacency creeps in when we stop being challenged




  • Success is often tied to who you give permission to push you




This episode is a mindset reset every working voice actor needs.
