George Addair famously said, “Everything you’ve ever wanted is on the other side of fear.” So true for voice actors. When I spoke to almost 70 voice actors, failure was by far the biggest fear we have. That one root fear permeates everything we do... fear of rejection, fear of auditioning, fear of reaching out to clients, fear of annoying people, fear of standing up for our worth, fear of pushing back on a client, fear of demanding fair rates, fear of not executing the audition spec… the list is endless.

Today we’re going to give you 8 proven methods to kill your fear of failure and rejection.
