About this course

Lean Into Your Voice

30 days to a stronger, more compelling, authoritative voice

 

An ecourse to help YOUR voice be heard above the noise 

 

Who is this course for?

 

This ecourse is for all those people whose voice is not being heard. The ones who are always being asked to repeat themselves. The ones who feel like they are bursting with things to say, yet don't say them. The ones who are dying to shout out:

 

Listen to me! I have something to say!

 

Or maybe you love to talk, but find that your voice gets tired or you lose your voice when you have to deliver a talk or a presentation.

What Will You Get? 

 

  • Greater confidence – when we see the impact of better communication our confidence improves

  • More energy – when you actually start breathing with your WHOLE lungs you will find you have more energy (did you know most people only use a FRACTION of their lung capacity?)

  • People’s perception of you will change – whether we mean to or not, we judge people on their voices. We assume weak-voiced people are weak. And strong-voiced people are strong. We equate confidence and ability with clarity and audibility of speech. Improve your voice and speech and watch your social status improve.

  • Greater vocal stamina – if you look after your voice (and in the course we’ll cover good vocal hygiene) and use your voice efficiently, you should have no problems talking all day, every day. Which if you are a teacher, a trainer, a coach - or spend much of your day on the phone - might make you a whole lot better at your job.

 

What You Will Learn

 

In this course, delivered in five lessons, we will learn how simple changes can unlock your voice and allow you to speak more clearly, more confidently and with greater purpose and ease.

 

Lesson One: Posture

Learn how two small changes to how you stand (or one small change when you sit) will make a massive difference to your voice.

Lesson Two: Breathing

Learn about how your lungs and diaphragm work together to breathe. Also, learn how trying to look ‘svelte’ is hindering your ability to breathe properly. Once you master this shift, the full capacity of your lungs will be used with every breath and you will feel alive and energized as you won’t be starving your body of oxygen. 

Lesson Three: Support

This lesson will teach you how to make your breath last as long as your thought. No more running out of air half way through your message. It will also make you look WAY more confident.

Lesson Four: Clarity

Fuzzy voices don’t give a very good impression. This lesson will show you how to make your voice sound clearer, brighter and more energized. And you’ll discover that you can enjoy speaking in front of others more than you thought you could.

 Lesson Five: Colour  & Volume

We respond to colour in a voice. Voices that have different colours – a balance of bright and dark colours – are far more interesting to listen to. It’s also the secret to how to be heard in a large space without shouting.

Bonus lesson: Vocal hygiene and how to look after your voice.

Learn some simple do’s and don’ts when it comes to taking care of your voice. You’ve only got one voice, learn to make it last.

 

Course Delivery

The course is delivered on Ruzuku - the e-learning platform - and you will receive an email approximately every 5 days to link you to the next lesson. You can go back at any time and review previous lessons.

The lessons have been designed to accomodate different learning styles - some are read, some are audio lessons and some are video lessons. Each lesson will provide you with the information and exercises to develop the skill.

You need to do the work to build these into your daily life. Like anything, it’s about creating new habits, which can be achieved in 10 minutes a day. Work with these ideas for 30 days and you’ll see, feel and hear a big difference in your voice.
