Ever been told you sound "too soft" or pushed yourself to sound authoritative and felt like a completely different person?

The tension between warmth and authority is real. And it's one of the things we'll dig into at The Voice Toolkit on May 7th.

Facilitator Barbara Boldt will help you understand how intonation patterns influence meaning, credibility, and emotion and how to make small, intentional adjustments that still sound like you.

Because the goal isn't to sound different. It's to sound more deliberately like yourself.
