Embody Voice Confidence

You’ll need a computer (or smartphone) and either Zoom for video calls + an internet connection that works well enough for video calls. If you’re unsure technically, feel free to contact me and I’ll walk you through it.  

You’ll want to feel comfortable to make sounds, experiment with your voice and move around a little so a cafe or public space would be limiting for you depending on the session content.  Contact me if you’re not sure.

We’ll explore specific vocal, physical and mindset practices around each weekly theme to move us towards greater confidence in our voices.  

We’ll talk about and explore any blocks you might have in expressing yourself and find the best way to move through these.

If you have a speech or story you’d like to work with we can break this down and work specifically on how to create the right impact and connection with your audience. 

If you have a conversation to be had or a dilemma regarding what to share or not we’ll work through this.

Listening in the group is also a great quality to cultivate when we're working with our voices.

All sessions will be recorded so If you are unable to make your session you can watch a replay in the members area.  If you have any questions you're welcome to email me them beforehand and I'll respond to them on the call.

Yes, there will time at the end for any questions and to go through anything that wasn't clear about the practice.  I'll try to keep within the 90 minutes but if you need me to stay longer sometimes that's fine too.

This is a small supportive group and there's no pressure to speak if you're not feeling ready, of course I hope that by the end of the program you'll feel more than ready, that's why you're here?  It's amazing what can be done in a small group of supportive women, sharing a poem, something you wrote, a story or description of what you dream about can be be very powerful.  I'll be guiding and keeping the circle feeling supportive and encouraging without the pressure to speak on every session.  Sometimes listening is the best gift you can give other participants, we need to be both. One small leap of courage goes along way towards building confidence and that's what we'll be focusing on in this group.

You will need 2 - 4 extra hours over the week.  It depends on where you’re at, you’re circumstances etc, you can take longer with the worksheets or practices or it might look like a short 10 min morning practice, perhaps you’ll be mostly focused on integrating the practices in your regular day to day activities.  However, a couple of hours to absorb the material and attend or watch the call afterwards would be recommended to get the most from the training. 

The practices and teachings are a combination of ancient tradition passed down from my teachers and their teachers in yoga, meditation, pranayama and philosophy along with a degree in performance art and my own professional experience over 30years as an actor, dancer and yoga teacher and healer.  The program is inspired by the many wonderful yoga and acting teachers and mentors I've had over these years guiding my path, one step at a time. 

Over the past few years I've worked deeply with Suzanne Sterling through both her Voice of Change and Sacred Leadership training (co-run with Ravyn Gerri Stansfield).  I also receive regular coaching with Tanya Geisler through her brlliant Impeccable Impact work and expertise around the Imposter Complex. Both Suzanne and Tanya continue to have a powerful impact on my own life and work.  I'm also very influenced by Chameli Ardagh's teachings on women's yogini practices and dharma, including embodiment practices.

Working with our voices can feel very vulnerable and it’s important to me that you feel safe and are able to work with whatever arises.  I am here to support you, however, some of this work may trigger deeper emotions.  I’d always recommend a professional therapist/psychologist to work alongside where needed.  Please email me and we can discuss this on a call and consider whether this program could be something that will benefit you at the moment and if the timing works well or if there are alternative recommendations I can make.

Listen in to your body, if there is a feeling of fear/anticipation or excitement/curiosity then this could be for you, if it feels heavy or stressful, then maybe not right now.

If you’re unsure book a free 20minute session with me here to talk more.  This is a commitment of time, energy and resources and we can talk through whether this would be the support you need right now and if I can help you.  If not then I’ll recommend other options where I can.

There is nothing that lifts me more than to see people rise who’ve felt unable to before for various reasons and I absolutely want to make sure we’re a good fit for each other, the development of trust is integral to our work together.

There are no refunds, this is a small group, however, there is the option to exchange the cost of this program towards other services I offer like one-to-one coaching or a future run of this program.  If you're not sure book a call in and we can talk more if it's right for you.

Questions? please contact me and I’ll be happy to talk more.
