Description

Your voice is a big part of how people hear your confidence. A clear, strong voice helps you be heard in meetings, in class and on calls.


In this course, I show you how your voice works, from your lungs to your lips, and then give you guided exercises for each part of it:

  • Respiration: breathing and breath support

  • Phonation: your vocal cords

  • Resonance: vibration and a fuller sound

  • Articulation: clear speech


You'll also learn daily vocal warm-ups, with downloadable audio so you can follow along anywhere, and how to reduce vocal fry.


The lessons are short, so you can fit the exercises into your day, and you can use the warm-ups again before a presentation, a class or an important call.

  • People who rely on their voice at work, like teachers, leaders, performers and voice actors

  • Students and working professionals who want a stronger-sounding voice

  • People who speak too softly and want more volume

  • People whose voice sounds nasal, high-pitched, rough or squeezed
