260. Behind the mic with voiceover artist Jackie Bowker

Ever thought about doing voiceover work? In this episode I’m joined by voiceover artist Jackie Bowker, who spills all the secrets about getting started in the voiceover industry. And trust me, she does not gatekeep. Jackie shares her journey from musical theatre student to professional voiceover artist, and gives you practical, step-by-step advice on: How to book your first jobs and which websites to use What equipment and training you really need to get started Techniques for bringing a script alive with tone, pitch, and emotion How to stand out in an industry where AI is on the rise Why awareness of your voice matters in every area of life And if you think voiceover isn’t for you—stick around. The end of this conversation is powerful. Jackie talks about how her voice has saved her in difficult personal conversations, and why your voice is so much more than a tool for work—it’s a channel for empathy, healing, and connection. You’ll also hear the hilarious story of my first-ever voiceover job… for Australian bananas. 🍌 Connect with Jackie: 🌐 Website: jackiebowker.net  📱 TikTok @on.academy + Instagram @jackiebowker_ 🔗 LINKS: PRE-ORDER My book VOICEPRINT NOW - https://www.sallyprosser.com.au/book NEW CLIENTS - 60 min 1:1 BOOK HERE Want to explore what’s holding your voice back? Book a free chat HERE  🎁 BONUSES for Pre-Ordering VOICEPRINT: Exclusive voice note of me reading Chapter 1 Access to the Brisbane Book Launch Party on Dec 7 at Blackbird Support a first-time author (me!) and help the industry take notice 💛📦 Pre-order on Amazon (preferred) or wherever you buy books📸 Then just send your receipt to any of my socials or via email!
