The DeFlame Diet.

So I have a great book I want to recommend to you. It’s called “The Deflame Diet: DeFlame your diet, body, and mind” by Dr. David Seaman.

This book is great. I’ve been eating this way for awhile now. If you’re a Voice Talent who has to clear their throat a lot throughout the day, maybe have some post-nasal drip, or are feeling sluggish and run down – you want to check this book out. The link above is an affiliate link through Amazon.com. If you want to see how I’m tracking my daily intake and activities, you can check out my Tracking Log Here. If you want to know why it’s important to track this stuff, you should read my post on the Importance of Daily Tracking here.

It was given to me by my trainer Mandla Nkosi. The book explains through scientific research that most chronic diseases like heart disease, high blood pressure, bad cholesterol, diabetes, Alzheimer’s and a host of others are all caused by eating an “Inflammatory diet.” An inflammatory diet is one that promotes chronic inflammation throughout the body that over time leads to these diseases.

Sources of inflammation are refined sugars and grains – pretty much a good portion of the “Western” diet. The book explains how inflammation gets started and how it affects every cell in our body. It also explains how to “DeFlame” and live a healthier lifestyle. It’s not as crazy and hard to do as you may think. You just need to look out for a few key ingredients and eat whole, unprocessed foods.

Have you modified your eating plan to help your voice? Please share your thoughts with us below!

ALSO…

It’s CHOCK FULL of “Writer-Downers.” During the conversation I told her I was taking notes. I hope you do too. There’s also a lot of fun in it too, so it’s entertaining.

In this Second of 2 parts we discuss:

  • The Importance of Research – Continued
  • How Research Helps you stay flexible – and why it’s important
  • Finding and Tying intersections between events and your prospective clients Example – #Jeep and the Peabody Award
  • How Marketing IS Creative!
  • The Importance of Knowing When to Slow Down – Rest is OK!
  • Having a “Plan B”
  • Overcoming Self-Doubt (We all have it at some point.)
  • Gypsy The Wonder Dog makes an appearance
  • A Mini-Mastermind Takes Place to Help Kelley #KB4Jeep do more research and get more exposure.
  • MUCH MORE!

Here Are the Links and Hashtags to Help Kelley Promote Her Jeep Campaign! Let’s all Help her WIN!

Shares, posts and likes on social media go a loooooong way toward getting #KB4Jeep on decision maker’s radars.  It’s especially helpful if:
  • Jeep and their agency of record DDB Chicago are tagged.  Just use a @ in front of the name like @Jeep and @DDB_Chicago
  • If there’s room for a hashtag, those are helpful too #myjeepstory and #KB4Jeep
  • It’s helpful if you tag me so I can make sure and thank you!
    • Facebook: @Kelley Carruthers Buttrick and/or @Kelley Buttrick Voiceover Talent
    • Twitter: @KB_Voiceovers

The Voice Over Athlete: Because a Healthy Body Means a Healthy Voice™Mike_Muscles

I’ve started a new blog “The Voice Over Athlete” with the idea that we need to take care of our bodies like athletes do because we use our bodies to perform. A healthy body means a healthy voice.

Please check out the videos and other writings I’ve started posting at the blog by clicking here. Please also feel free to leave feedback and suggestions for topics you’d like me to cover.

Thank You!

The DeFlame Diet.

So I have a great book I want to recommend to you. It’s called “The Deflame Diet: DeFlame your diet, body, and mind” by Dr. David Seaman.

This book is great. I’ve been eating this way for awhile now. If you’re a Voice Talent who has to clear their throat a lot throughout the day, maybe have some post-nasal drip, or are feeling sluggish and run down – you want to check this book out. The link above is an affiliate link through Amazon.com. If you want to see how I’m tracking my daily intake and activities, you can check out my Tracking Log Here. If you want to know why it’s important to track this stuff, you should read my post on the Importance of Daily Tracking here.

It was given to me by my trainer Mandla Nkosi. The book explains through scientific research that most chronic diseases like heart disease, high blood pressure, bad cholesterol, diabetes, Alzheimer’s and a host of others are all caused by eating an “Inflammatory diet.” An inflammatory diet is one that promotes chronic inflammation throughout the body that over time leads to these diseases.

Sources of inflammation are refined sugars and grains – pretty much a good portion of the “Western” diet. The book explains how inflammation gets started and how it affects every cell in our body. It also explains how to “DeFlame” and live a healthier lifestyle. It’s not as crazy and hard to do as you may think. You just need to look out for a few key ingredients and eat whole, unprocessed foods.

Have you modified your eating plan to help your voice? Please share your thoughts with us below!

VO Marketing Podcast Listener and Author Tania Sims is My Guest in this Episode!

Tania-Sims

Tania Sims

I have to admit it. I’m a little proud of this. VO Talent Tania Sims is a listener of this podcast and she took some advice from a few of the episodes and wrote her own book called the “Ultimate Resource Guide for New and Aspiring Voiceover Talent: How to Access Valuable Tips and Resources You Need to Start and Continue as a Working Voiceover Talent”

I had to get her on the podcast.

In this episode Tania and I discuss:

  • The Importance of who you associate with to help you reach your goals
  • Several Books that have helped her take action and grow her business
  • Her Book and why she wrote it
  • The Importance of Continuous Learning
  • The Power of Persistence and so much more.

This was a great conversation loaded with nuggets of powerful ideas and take-aways to help you grow your VO Business.

Here are links to Purchase Tania’s Book and the other Books she mentioned:

Episode 42: Why Voice Over People Are Special

This Episode Is A Pep-Talk For YOU!

I spend some time in this episode encouraging you to keep working on your dream of voice John_and_MIKE_2-13-14acting and voice over.

Voice Over People are special because we all started doing it because we had or have the dream of using our voices in some form of media. It’s not a common career. If you’re in VO or starting a VO Career you’re working on your goals and dreams.

Many people go through life wishing and dreaming and never doing and end their lives with that regret.

We’re at least working on the VO dream and we should take pride in wherever we are in our journey. We’re in the game. We’re playing. We’re living our dreams.

Never ever give up on it. Keep going. You’ll make it.

Hey It’s Been Awhile

It’s been a rough year for me so far this year. I’ve had to take some time away from the podcast to help my family with some “Stuff” that’s been going on.

It’s given me some time to reflect on what I’ve accomplished and other things I still want to do.

It’s also reinforced the knowledge that we can’t take life for granted and that if we have goals and dreams – then there’s no “Perfect” time to start working on them. “Now” is the perfect time.

I guess someone many years ago summed it up with the phrase “There’s no time like the present.”

Some Inspiring Music

Here Are A Couple of Links to some RUSH tunes that encourage people to go after their goals and dreams:

“Mission” and “Losing It”

Great tunes. Enjoy.
