Sustainable progress in #voiceover comes from how you show up to the work, not from increasing pressure or output.
In other words, You don’t need to #hustle harder. You need to show up better.

#voiceover tip:
You dont need a $1000 microphone to sound professional.
What you do need is a quiet space and a clean read.
Chasing gear instead of chasing performance is a great way to stay busy and broke.
Buy decent.
Learn how to use it.
Move on.
