A true story of Erin’s incredible vocal release journey.As an adult, she developed a speech impediment from traumas associated with perfectionism from childhood.   When psychological needs like love, acceptance,  and safety are not given , she tried to receive them by revving up her perfectionism engine into overdrive, until burnout and parts failure.   The solution?  We revisited 6 year old Erin and began to fulfill those psychological needs of love and acceptance. We kindly

Good news and bad news... Most speech impediments have childhood trauma at their root.. This is the bad news. The good news, is that you can heal the trauma as well as reclaim your powerful speech.   In this presentation, I share with you one of my personal traumatic experiences that contributed to my tense voice. I also share how I was able to heal it in greater detail.   It is not the traumatic experience that is the root of the tension, it is the lack of processing of the

You were born with a powerful voice, but layers of tension covered it up through certain relationships.   In this presentation, I share with you a true story of how parenting types can inhibit your voice and how you can restore it once and for all.   Step 1) Recognize the root cause that created the body armoring. Step 2) Begin to reparent the version of you that is in that memory. Step 3) Repeat until that version of you is no longer on survival mode, but feels safe and whol

If you grew up with a narcissistic parent, your voice was literally stolen from you. The narcissist operates on terror, manipulation and fear, until the child begins to abandon themselves and lose their identity completely (including their voice - physically and psychologically).   You may have benefited from psychotherapy, speech therapy, life coaching and even somatic breathwork, but the results of reclaiming your powerful voice did not last.   Because the problem is multi-

If you find yourself holding a lot of tension in your jaw or your tongue throughout the day or when you're sleeping, this is a sign of suppressed emotions that need to be processed - rage, frustration, and fear that need to get out in a healthy way.   You may have band-aid remedies that alleviate the symptoms, but it did not last because you did not get to the root cause.   You see, we have a nervous system that controls our heartbeat, breathing, and all unintentional movemen

My life changed in 2022 when I learned this. The throat is one of the most common places that hold on to trauma. Because public speaking is more feared than death, all that fear accumulates in a certain location... the throat!   Unless we learn how to release trauma from the nervous system effectively, we can't shake off that vocal tightness and anxiety that has built up. In this video I share with you 3 exercises to release that tension effectively: 1) 60-seconds neck massag

This is a topic that comes up frequently, so its important to address. If you find yourself tensing up in a Zoom meeting when it’s your turn to speak, your heart starts to beat faster and louder, and you may even feel a sense of stress, self-consciousness, and embarrassment. I want to let you know that you are not alone, and there are sustainable solutions.   This is one of the most common pain points I hear from people I speak with and for good reason. Yet there are no mains

Earning more money is not about working harder . It's about being heard clearer. You can show up early , leave late , hit every target , and exceed expectations, and still be looked over, still not be seen as a trusted authority or leader. If you don't address the root cause , which is your voice - your primary tool of communication , you'll continue to spin your wheels without getting real traction in your earning potential.   In this video I dive deep into this topic sharin

Unresolved triggers are silent career killers. The people who rise steadily aren’t the ones who react every time they’re provoked, they’re the ones who’ve learned to disarm their triggers at the emotional root. They identify the cause, defuse it, and regain full access to their clarity and presence. If you keep toughing it out, you’re not moving forward — you’re just looping through the same emotional pattern, calling it progress..   In this video I walk you through a specifi

The power of your speech is not  tips and ticks, it depends on the depth of your healing . Every word you speak carries the vibration  of your inner world's programming. Your self-image , self-esteem growing up , and even your self-doubts. If you don’t heal the root causes  of stifled expression, your voice will continue to betray you , robbing you from  the life you truly want  and deserve.   To get a deeper insight , watch this video I recorded for you, where I   tell a sto

Social confidence  isn’t built intellectually block by block, it’s about removing the somatic layers of inhibition  that were innacuratley laid onto your system - your mind and body.   You were born charismatic , laughing and crying freely, before these layers of inhibition started to accumilate from experiencing triggers and traumas. To regain that liberty naturally , you want to reach the root cause  and release those patterns somatically and psychologically .   If you dont

You may notice your body naturally feeling relaxed , expansive and filled with life energy  when you are in a peaceful and emotionally-safe-environment , and your voice is effortlessly more  expressive and  emotive!   On the otherhand, when you are in a loud emotionally-unsafe-environment , like in a busy restaurant with extroverted coworkers, friend and family member,  your body contracts and tightens up , leaving your voice  knotted up, you sound stifled, monotone , you may

Imagine feeling like your authentic confident self in social gatherings without the need to overshare , feel nervous or self-conscious.   By proactively using this simple 2-step  process you can detect and neutralize self-limiting beliefs (which are repeated disempowering thoughts programmed in the unconscious mind from childhood) and experience immediate permanent relief in your voice.   First , you detect the self-limiting belief through deeper introspection. This could be

You can re-condition your Voice and Nervous System for sustainable confidence , through a simplified understanding of the biological dynamics between each.   I re-created my own daily meditation that increased my vocal confidence , so that you can benefit from it the same way but much quicker .   It is broken down into: 1) Tuning into your voice muscles and deeper throat structures. 2) Neutralizing against triggering events. 3) Anchoring the increased control into the present

Imagine you are at a social gathering, feeling connected , confident and authentic as you're chatting with people! What a great feeling.   If in social gatherings, as you get your turn to speak and grab the attention of everyone at the table to share a simple story, your heart rate increases and nervousness surges through your body, this is a clear sign of vocal inhibition , causing you to feel self-conscious  and overthink  instead of being just present .   Vocal Inhibition

Receiving subtle but consistent criticism of the way you speak from a loved one is actually a common cause of an inhibited voice and stifled speech .   Even when you try to fortify your mind and not let those critiques get to your head , repetition gradually infiltrates your unconscious mind and muscle memory .   This causes you to  feel even more self-conscious  about your voice , as well as compromising the way you sound .   This then creates a vicious cycle of more discomf

5 years ago, I'm hanging out with a group of new friends at a round table and playing a fun game. In a certain moment I had to get really vocally expressive in order to win... but I stuttered  terribly and noticeably . Needless to say, I felt ashamed , weak and deep sense of embarrassment . But, as this occurrance started to happen increasingly , a deep inner whisper kept saying   "there has to be a solution that actually works"  and fotunately that turned out to be true .  

Author of the classic read Think & Grow Rich,  Napoleon Hill , emphasizes the importance of developing a pleasing tone of voice , as it is key to creating meaningful relationships and conveying your authentic intentions to others.   Hill encourages us to record ourselves daily to increase awareness of how we sound , as well as to speak about topics we are naturally enthusiastic about, since enthusiasm is essential for influence .   The issue is that for people who struggle wi

In moments of nervousness , maybe when under pressure or being distracted , do you find yourself oversharing and unable to stop talking in a comfortable way? Potentially the listener even misunderstands your personality and true character ?   If the answer is yes , I want to share with you that this happens when our   voice loses its grounding!   Our voice is supposed to resonate in our chest and belly in order to sound rich and grounded , However,  when we are nervous , the
