iMovie Mac Voice memos

i have recorded some audio on voice memos and transferred it to my MacBook. How do I now get that audio file into my current iMovie project? When I’ve searched for help online, it tells me to drag and drop from voice memo to iMovie. However, this doesn’t work for me- the file doesn’t transfer. Any other ideas?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.0

Click the Import arrow/button and navigate to your audio file. Select it and press the Import Selected button.
