From the conversation I had with actress, voiceover artist, and coach Simone Serra these are my takeaways. Expectations are a funny thing. If we can come into more experiences in our life without expectations we make space to receive and have the freedom to try what comes. Next, Success is an ever changing landscape and it encompasses both your personal and professional life. It's ok to ask yourself, what does it mean to me to be successful and questioning whether your own limiting beliefs are getting in the way of your definition. And finally where focus goes energy flows so where are you focusing? Simone is Voiceover Artist and Coach who has cultivated a successful Voiceover career over the last five years, having her voice streamed on all media platforms from Spotify to TikTok. With an extensive resume of working with clients from The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, Nutella, Dominos and Ulta Beauty, she attributes her accomplishments and success to the many years she dedicated to her education and training. She received her Bachelor’s Degree in Theater Studies at Montclair State University, followed by completing a two-year conservatory training at the Maggie Flanigan Studio, which specializes in the Meisner Technique. Soon she will add adjunct professor to her resume and begin teaching a Beginner Voiceover Workshop at Tisch Drama School this fall. Her pivot into the Voiceover world and the following successes have given her the confidence to reverse course and begin to pursue acting on stage and film again.  Get in touch: Simone Serra  Website: https://www.simoneserra.com/ Instagram: @mssimoneserra  Ayana Major Bey  Website: www.ayanabey.com Instagram: @ayanambey, @theartistpivot  Monthly Newsletter: https://www.ayanabey.com/podcast Show Sponsors:  BetterHelp: Get 10% off your first month with BetterHelp at https://betterhelp.com/artistpivot  WeAudition: Get 25% off your membership when you use the code PIVOT, join at https://www.weaudition.com/ ******* Host & Exec.
