This week, The Pro Audio Suite breaks tradition — and smashes a few stereotypes along the way — as we welcome Christy Harst to the show.
Christy is a voice actor and founder of Building Doors, a grassroots movement dedicated to creating opportunities for women in male-dominated sectors like sports, automotive, gaming, and tech voiceover. After years of hitting roadblocks, Christy decided to stop waiting for the industry to change — and started building her own doors.
In this wide-ranging, real, and sometimes confronting conversation, we dive into:
-
The harsh realities facing women in promo and commercial VO today
-
Why even major brands are missing huge opportunities by ignoring female voices
-
The importance of representation in creating real cultural change
-
How grassroots support — a like, share, or tag — can directly impact a voice actor's career
-
Christy's global plans for Building Doors, including expansions into Australia, Egypt, and the UK
The Pro Audio Suite proudly stands behind Building Doors and its mission.
If you believe in a more inclusive, forward-thinking voiceover industry, you can help in three simple ways: 👉 Follow, like, and share Building Doors' posts — even one click makes a difference.
