Yes -- That Sounds Like Me

What is TALK?

TALK is a professional voice and performance training method developed over 20+ years of real-world work in Voiceover, Acting, Casting, and Coaching.

 


 

It’s not about “having a good voice.”

 

It’s about learning how professionals think, interpret, and perform—so your voice becomes clear, confident, and bookable.

 

TALK gives creatives a repeatable framework they can use on any script, any audition, and any style of Voiceover—without guessing, forcing, or copying trends.

 

This is the same approach used by working actors and Voice Artists who:

  • record auditions with confidence -  knowing what to do

  • understand what casting is actually listening for

  • and can adapt quickly in a changing industry


 

Many creatives feel called to Voiceover—but feel unsure how to turn that calling into real, consistent work.

 

TALK bridges the gap between creative instinct and professional execution

 

TALK was created to solve that exact problem.

It teaches you how to:

  • break down scripts with clarity instead of confusion

  • make intentional choices that feel natural and grounded

  • sound confident without “trying” to sound confident

  • understand why something works—not just that it works

 

Instead of memorizing rules, you learn how to think like a professional voice actor...and have fun doing something you love


 

TALK works because it’s built on real industry experience

 

This method wasn’t designed in theory—it was built:

  • in recording studios

  • in casting sessions

  • in auditions that led to bookings

  • and in years of booking and coaching creatives at different stages of their careers

 

TALK adapts with you as you grow—whether you’re just starting or refining professional-level skills.

"Laurie's been with me from before I had a demo to now being a well-rounded professional Voiceover Artist who is out in the working world succeeding and doing what I love. She can give you insight no matter where you are on your journey."

What is Virtual Voiceover? It's something I, as the Original Voice of Google and a professionally working Actress and Voiceover Artist, have spent almost 20 years happily doing.

 

When I entered the field, most Voiceovers were being recorded only in studios. Coming from an entire family made up of professional musicians (which I liken to growing up in a home that was a cross between "This Is Spinal Tap" and "The Partridge Family"), every house my family lived in was like one big home studio. 

 

As a self-admitted "late bloomer", I didn't take the leap into becoming a professional Voiceover Artist until a visit to my Doctor's office forced her to make an important life decision...

 

I was a Sales Person for a big company and  "successful" by society's standards but I felt that by doing what I was doing, I wasn't fulfilling my potential or at least helping the world in any way. I felt lost in a big void and alarmingly overwhelmed with stress. My body began exhibiting some pretty strange symptoms of something but I didn't know what that something was. After asking some lifestyle questions, my doctor knew stress was the culprit. He looked at me, and said point-blank, "I don't want to tell you what to do, but you're too young to be having these symptoms, your job is not worth it".

 

That visit to the Doctor's office changed my entire life (thanks Dr. Ravitz!). I decided to listen to that little voice inside my head that told me I was not fulfilling my creative potential with my job - or at least helping the world in some way. So, I took my Doctor's advice and quit shortly thereafter. I volunteered with the Red Cross, traveled a bit, and then invested in myself. I studied Voiceover, made a demo, bought my first Mac, made a demo, built a home studio...and the rest, as they say, is herstory. (I became the voice of Google within two years)!

 

Since I took that leap, I have recorded over a thousand Voiceovers for the biggest companies in the world including The Emmy Awards, LinkedIn, Google, and many of the biggest tech and medical companies around the world. At the same time, I've gotten to act in hundreds of productions in front of the camera including TV shows like Chance with Hugh Laurie, performed on stage and in musical productions, became the TV and Internet Movie Review Host for Common Sense Media for 8 years and, most recently played "Sheriff Laura" in the Rosario Dawson produced series "The North Pole" and worked opposite Adam Devine in the movie "Jexi", playing the title role on-set. All this while also maintaining a solid Voiceover career. 

 

I'm truly so blown away by all the things I've gotten to do - just from taking that leap! Now, I want to help others pursue their dreams, use their voice, and live their best creative life. 

 

Maybe you've been told you have a great voice or you've always been interested in doing Voiceover but didn't know where to start. Or, maybe you are one of those feeling that internal nudge to change your life and pursue your dream of doing something creative for a living. In any case, wouldn't the time to start be now? 

 

In this Bootcamp, I will share my knowledge, experience, and support so you can learn more about the profession I am gratefully and successfully doing. You will learn the basic tools of what is involved in making money from your home and the mindset it takes to not only work but THRIVE in the industry. You will come out of it with your own, personalized Roadmap to becoming a Virtual Voiceover Artist. 


I'll teach you what it takes to be an in-demand Virtual Voiceover Artist, find YOUR unique voice to shine as only you can, and show you how to make money doing what you love AND have a lot of FUN in the process!!!
