How to Tell If You Are Using Your Voice Properly in 90 Seconds
Simple things such as talking on your cell phone when there is background noise, colds/allergies and work environments can trigger habits that cause us to not use our voice the way it should be used. Most are so subtle that we don’t even notice it happening!
In this short video, I will show you a quick and simple exercise that will tell you if you are using your voice properly, or not, in 90 seconds.
I hope this video serves you. Have fun with it. Until next time, I am Vocal Coach, Singer, Speaker and Author Donna Flynn. See you soon.
