It might have even inspired you to try your hand at voice over work. And if you have ever been told you have a voice for radio or you speak really well, you might have considered it as a potential career path. Perhaps you have been told your voice is warm, soothing and even comforting? Can you convey emotion or humor in your voice? If so, you might make a great voice over artist.
It has been said that the three most stressful experiences to go through are the death of a loved one, a divorce, or moving house. One would think that moving would be a new chapter, a new beginning, or the start of a new adventure, but the reality is that packing up your entire life into a few boxes and trusting a company with safely moving everything you own can be incredibly stressful.
