Sir Derek Jacobi described the purpose of voice in performance "to express feeling and to lift the words off the page and inhabit them, and give them a soul, and a sense of feeling and a life." It's not about booming monologues in verse: it's finding the same joy in articulation in everything from narrating a video to Henry V to an exciting new interest rate in a 6 month certificate of deposit at the bank. If it's not at least a little fun ... why bother?
