Did you ever wonder why you can be in the most professional atmosphere speaking in your most "professional voice" but when I family member calls you, you immediately begin speaking in a southern drawl, a New England accent or the home town vernacular of wherever you grew up?
Wonder no more!! In this episode, I speak with Samara Bay who knows first hand the importance of the tongue, accents, and dialect. Samara Bay is a speech coach for top actors in Hollywood and leading professionals in politics, business, tech, and creative fields. She’s run workshops on using your voice at organizations and universities around the U.S. and abroad, including her alma mater, Princeton. Her work on rethinking the sound of power has been featured in The New York Times Magazine, Forbes, CBS Sunday Morning, Slate, Create & Cultivate, and Jezebel, and her first book will be available in early 2023: Permission to Speak, published by Crown, a division of Penguin Random House.
