A mum says she left her late-night legal career behind for voiceover work from home where she can care for her children.
Emily McGonagle started her working life as a lawyer in the capital, often finishing at 03:00, but started to question whether she could sustain it long term.
After having children, she decided to seek something "more flexible" than her daily commute from Colchester to Canary Wharf, and pivoted to voiceover work in 2019.
