I was _so_ glad you weren't whispering! I know for some people ASMR is special, but I don't have that particular quirk, and a constant whisper is tiring to my ear, and with some mics gives me audibility problems with my headphones. Your quiet delivery is perfect for relaxation and sleep. Thank you!
No, I agree - there is certainly a twang there. I'd guess she was Irish before Canadian... I mean, her last name is O'Conner haha. People do move to other countries. Just because she's in Canada now, doesn't mean she grew up there.
I am indeed Irish but I grew up my whole life in Canada. I spent some time on the east coast in Nova Scotia as an adult but I think it did change my voice a bit. I love this discourse! :) Thank you for being here.
As a Canadian myself there's something about the familiar accent that immediately makes me feel more comfortable, secure, and relaxed. It's almost completely unconscious, immediate, and very effective.
