Many people FREAK! when they first hear their recorded voices. This is perfectly normal as what we hear of our own voices is from inside: everyone else hears our voices from outside!

As more business people use podcasts and webinars to promote themselves; to train and share knowledge, we are recording our voices more frequently. Most people don't use professional recording studios with top sound engineers to do their recordings, so the sound quality is not going to be the same.

However, there are some easy things you can do to make your recording sound better. In this podcast I share some top tips as well as giving some facts about recordings.

Do contact me if you would like some more tips or to ask questions. And do download the Top tips to being a Superstar Communicator. Thanks for listening!

I don't know about you, but there have been times when I have had a difficult conversation with someone, and before I know it, I'm taking very shallow breaths and feeling anxious and light headed. A lot of listeners have been contacting me to ask for my tips on this! And today I share ways to manage your breath, including getting rid of tension, warming up and using a Powerbreath before you start.

I always love feedback on these podcasts and welcome ideas. Do connect with me on my website www.executivevoice.co.uk where you can receive my free top tips to being a superstar communicator as well as rating me on itunes.

Giving positive, constuctive feedback is an art in itself. We have all received negative or crushing feedback, and sometimes this has been because the person giving feedback has a hidden agenda or is unaware of how to do this effectively.

Certainly I've received some appalling feedback in the past, and on many occasions this has been spiteful or out of envy. BUT there are times we have to GIVE feedback to ensure our businesses and personal lives run harmoniously. 

As Superstar Communicators we want to avoid doing the "Don't take offence but" or "Just Saying", which are pathetic ways of 'giving' feedback (or generally spiteful comments). So I have identified 5 ways of ensuring the feedback you give to others is effective, professional and constructive.
