Beginner voice actor question — does storytelling content actually help or hurt?

I’m a beginner voice actor and I wanted some honest perspective from people already in the field. I’ve been running a YouTube channel focused on storytelling/voice-led content, so I’m comfortable recording, editing, and performing consistently. My question is: does having that background actually help when starting VO, or are there habits I should be careful to unlearn? I’m not looking to self-promote — I’m genuinely trying to understand what transfers well and what doesn’t when moving toward auditions and professional work. If you started with content creation, narration, or online storytelling, I’d really appreciate hearing what surprised you when you shifted into voice acting.
