Michelle Falanga . Ginger-infused Creme Brulee

From savory soups to sweet desserts, this podcast has something for everyone. Whether you're a seasoned chef or just starting out in the kitchen, 'The Voice Kitchen' is a place for voice actors and foodies to gather 'round a virtual table to talk about creativity, food, and the stories that flavor both all while sharing their most special recipes!  You don't have to be a VO to tune into the Voice Kitchen, so let's cookin'!

Today's VO Chef, Michelle Falanga, joins me today to talk about her eclectic life and career, and how she chanced upon her family's love of Creme Brulee, and to share her recipe of Ginger-infused Creme Brulee!

Michelle's voice has touched millions through her work as an Emmy and Telly Award–winning voice actor, a seasoned on-camera actor, even though in her words "I fell into acting and VO kind by accident", a published author, and an unshakeably passionate storyteller whose work spans national campaigns, cinematic brand pieces, trailers, narration, animation, and more. You've heard her voice through brands like Target, Hallmark, AmEx, Nike, Amazon, ASPCA, and so many others!

Along with her celebrated voice career, Michelle is an experienced on-camera actor with a rich improv background, a published author of the beloved children's book The Amazing Monster, and a meditation teacher on the app Insight Timer. Her path into acting and voiceover began unexpectedly, and her journey has been shaped by resilience—including rebuilding life and perspective following a significant fire.

As the former co-host of, 'Real Talk Tuesdays with Jess & Shell', a video podcast that still runs on Youtube, she talked about all things voiceover with fellow voice actor Jessica Lewis, while sharing some of their experiences, voiceover tips, and personal stories along the way!

A pivotal piece of work for Michelle was her highly personal "Two person/One Woman" show 'Conversations With My Fat' the story of Michelle, her Fat and their journey losing over 100 pounds.
