I was working with a group of senior executives last week, helping them sound more powerful with a leadership voice.

I bought some Kang Kong seeds recently to have some fun growing my own vegetable. The seeds looked like stones and I wondered, “Are these really going to sprout?!” I planted the seeds in a pot with soil, watered it and went to sleep. The next morning, nothing grew out of the soil! The second day, […]

In a virtual workshop recently, a participant said, “I love stress. It motivates me.” Well, stress is fear. Louise Hay once said, “There are two types of emotions, love and fear.” If you want to use fear as a motivator, it won’t last long. Fear creates tension in the body, so is every other […]

“So if I do this exercise, I’ll get a powerful voice eventually, right?” This, or similar questions as, “If I do A, I’ll get B, right?” “If I do meditation, I’ll eventually get peace, right?”, has been a common thought pattern in my clients and audiences. We wish it could be that linear. The […]

A client today shared in his 2nd session about his practice on an engaging voice that picks the audience’s curiosity, “I was not born for this. I’ve tried so hard and practiced every day and not much progress.” I laughed, “You see that’s where the problem is!” The client looked confused. […]

Your Whole Voice

Many of my clients think they need to become better or perfect before they can take action. The fact is, most people think this way. That is the reason that most people stay in the “aim” stage and never “fire”. What if, you are already perfect? What if, you are already ready? What if, […]

Do you speak with a withdrawn voice?

cynthiazhai — Mon, 15 Feb 2021 07:29:57 +0000

In a recent interview, the host asked me if we could hear in the voice that a person is withdrawn. The answer is yes. Voice reflects everything about us.

Life is suffering. That’s the opening of a speech from my client. He wanted to deliver the speech with a more powerful voice so he could inspire his team. “Well…” I looked at him upon finishing reading his speech, “If I were to be your team member, I’d feel depressed.” We both bursted into […]
