From Opera to Voiceover, Advocacy & Authentic Living | Carin Gilfry | Take Time Out with Tre Mosley

In this powerful, funny, and deeply honest episode of Take Time Out with Tre Mosley, Tre sits down with Carin Gilfry—award-winning voice actor, singer, founder of Vocation Conference, and co-founder of NAVA (National Association of Voice Actors). Carin shares her journey from growing up in a family of performers in Switzerland and Germany, to training at USC and Juilliard, to performing opera professionally, and ultimately finding her purpose—and her voice—in the world of voiceover. She opens up about rebuilding her life after a painful relationship that crushed her confidence, rediscovering joy through VO, and how she turned rebuilding from $1,000 and two suitcases into a thriving career, a loving family, and leadership in the fight to protect human voices in the age of AI. This episode is inspirational, educational, soulful, and laugh-out-loud real—just the way Tre likes it.
