How confident do you feel expressing your voice? How about your singing voice?

In this episode, we dive into why most people are afraid to use their voices and how to build your confidence when vocally expressing yourself.

The best part about singing is that listeners aren’t captivated by “good singing” — it’s all about musical expression. Humans are emotional creatures. By adding emotion & confidence while you sing, you’ll connect with your joy AND your audience is too!

WE COVER:

• why confidence isn’t something you’re born with
• what confidence really is
• why mindfulness matters
• how to practice building your vocal confidence
• the definition of self expression 
• 5 musical expression tools to add to your singing practice

In this episode, you’ll learn the step by step process to changing the key of a song so that you can sing in a way that shows off your voice!

Picking songs is all about tuning in to your heart (what emotionally feels good to sing!) AND what your voice is capable of. 

The best part is, even if a song doesn’t feel comfortable in its original key, you can (for the most part) change the key! This makes a huge difference in your voice — even moving the song up or down a half step will drastically change how you feel and sound when singing a song.

WE COVER:

• 3 components to selecting the right song for your voice
• when it’s not appropriate to change the key of a song
• how to assess a song before changing the key
• a step by step process to changing the key
• how to determine whether the key should go higher or lower
• which 2 apps to use when changing the key

We're singing TOGETHER in this episode!!

Find a comfortable place to sing, put away your inner critic, and learn this melody mantra for inner peace. Self care singing is a wonderful way to elevate your  spirit, calm your nervous system, and reconnect with your higher self. 

Lyrics (by Allie Tyler):

I am letting go of all my worries
I can feel my peace
When thoughts repeat and my heart  races
I can feel my peace

I am balanced when I'm holding
Both the darkness and the lightness all at once
I am powered by my inner strength
And I don't need to prove to anyone

I'm now slowly living
I can feel my peace
I'm now freely being
I can feel my peace
