Thanks for this! I've dipped a toe into social media. It's still difficult for me but I'm feeling a bit more comfortable expressing myself ( and I have to admit, I love creating graphics and videos in Canva!)

Amen! 💯- I LOVE what you said about Hollywood. My goal has always been “to be a consistently working actor”. I’ve never even considered being a “Star”. As long as I’m doing the work I love, and being paid fairly for it - I’m a happy camper. 😊

Thank you for this topic as I also struggle with how much to post, when to and how often, what should I post, how comfortable am I, am I tooting my horn too much, is this really ME, when I post about my work….in general, I love seeing other narrators post their work and also it is fun to see how creative they get …I am truly happy for them…On the other hand, I feel the stress and pressure of doing something, posting something….your article lay some basic fundamentals and grounding….the main thing is DO WHAT IS COMFORTABLE FOR ME….

I have gotten work from my social media presence, but it's certainly not enough to fuel the ship. It's one of many tools to market, connect, and stay top of mind.

I still haven't mustered up the courage to narrate live. I'm worried I'll scare off work because they'll see how much I flub! lol
