Tara Strong, Emmy nominated actress (Loki, Powerpuff Girls, Fairly Oddparents, Teen Titans, Pretty Hard Cases) and podcast host always believed she would make her dream of acting come to life, and over the decades she has voiced iconic characters – but still, she never stops showing up. She shares what it takes to become a standout voice over actor, how to practice gratitude and resilience when you’re facing disappointment, and why everyone is a hero that deserves to be celebrated.
