Atomic Voice’s Transformative Journey Through the Certified Voice Artist Program (CVAP)
Lloyd, better known as Atomic Voice, recently shared his reflections on his journey through the Certified Broadcast Artist Program (CVAP) a program designed to train and empower aspiring voice artists while fostering a strong sense of community and professionalism. His story highlights not just skill development, but the deep personal growth, mentorship, and camaraderie that CVAP offers.
A Journey That Continues Beyond Graduation
Atomic Voice emphasized that the CVAP experience doesn’t end with certification. “The family, the friendship, teamwork still gonna be there,” he said. The program instills the value of mutual support, encouraging participants to stay connected, lift each other up, and continue collaborating long after the sessions are over. This emphasis on ongoing community is a defining feature of CVAP.
A Warm Welcome and Life-Changing Mentorship
From day one, participants are welcomed warmly by CVAP executives, including Sir Troy, Sir Nicky, Sir Rich, and Sir Jeff. For Atomic Voice, the program became a turning point when he was personally noticed by a key supporter, Kathleen, who recognized his potential and helped him gain entry into CVAP. That recognition fueled his motivation and confidence, giving him the courage to fully commit to the journey.
Learning Across Cultures and Personalities
One of the program’s unique strengths is bringing together aspiring voice artists from different regions, cultures, and backgrounds. Despite their differences, participants share a common goal: to become Certified Voice Artists (CVA) and use their voices to inspire, communicate, and connect. Atomic Voice found this diverse community enriching, fostering teamwork and collaboration while pushing him to grow professionally.
Mentorship That Changes Perspective
Sir Troy, the founder of CVAP, left a profound impact on Atomic Voice. Described as a motivator and life-changer, Sir Troy instills positive thinking, energy, and practical guidance into every session. According to Atomic Voice, “once you meet this guy… it’s gonna change your life, it’s gonna change your perspective.” This mentorship reinforced the idea that talent alone is not enough; discipline, commitment, and continual improvement are essential for success.
Skills, Discipline, and Dedication
CVAP teaches that having a good voice is just the beginning. Atomic Voice highlighted the importance of equipment, self-discipline, commitment, and availability. Participants complete assignments, practice consistently, and refine their craft. The program also offers support like discounts for training and assignments, making it accessible and encouraging for all aspiring voice artists.
Gratitude for Mentors and Community
Atomic Voice expressed deep gratitude to the CVAP family, mentors, and fellow participants. From break room teammates like Boggs, Clarice, Kay, Kai, Chris, and Julius, to mentors Miss Nikki, Sir Jeff, Sir Richard, and of course Sir Troy, the journey was enriched by their guidance, support, and friendship. He especially thanked Kathleen and Kay for seeing his potential and opening doors that changed the course of his career.
A Life-Changing Experience
Reflecting on the day he saw his name on the audition results, Atomic Voice described the moment as “crazy… I feel like I won the lottery.” The mix of excitement, recognition, and validation highlighted the transformative nature of CVAP not only as a training program but as a platform for building confidence, finding one’s voice, and joining a supportive network of professionals.
