This week the VAI Coaches speak with Mike Cooper, who had all of our AI fears come true. His voice wasn't only taken once, but TWICE! Like all of our conversations on this podcast, we're reminded that not everything is bleak, that there's duality to everything, and that above all, it's who we choose to be in the face of what happens to us that makes us who we are! PLUS, we have a HUGE announcement at the end of today's episode.

The week the VAI Coachestalk about tax season (wamp wamp). This isn't an episode with tax advice, since none of the coaches are rax experts but they are experts at shifting their focus!

The week the VAI Coaches make the connection between Self Mastery and Acting. Self Mastery is a huge component of how the coaches approach their character creation. If you think about it, the principles of self mastery we use align with action / objective work. And there's some opposition too, where self mastery helps people be less reactive in their life, but characters in stories are highly reative. The coaches talk about it all! 

What are your thoughts on self mastery as acting technique? Let us know on any or all social medial platforms @voiceactinginstitute or visit us at https://www.voiceactinginstitute.com/ to learn more about who we are and what we offer. We'd love to hear from you!
