I Love Ted, but Ted is Not your Answer

You cannot improve your voice and speech by watching a Ted Talk.

There. I said it.

A Ted Talk is a sound bite. An introduction to an idea. A brilliant summarization of a concept or tool. It is not a comprehensive, personalized training program.

A Ted Talk might give you incredible insight into the importance of your voice and how you use it, it might even give you a couple of great suggestions on how to warm up your voice. But this is a fraction of what it takes to actually create lasting improvement in your voice.

The truth is, you don’t actually even know what your voice is capable of. You don’t know what kind of an astronomical difference building your voice and body connection can make to your speaking and your life.

I’m talking about differences like:

🫶 building your sense of identity
🤩 building your influence and how you are perceived
🥰 building your sensitivity to nuance in communication
🙌 building your confidence speaking in any situation
🗣️ building the tone and richness of your voice so you can be easily heard with or without a microphone
👄 building your articulation so that you can be easily understood
💃🏼 building your enjoyment of speaking so that you can shift from dreading opening your mouth to looking forward to your chance to speak
👥 building your authentic connection to others
🏅 building your credibility so that you actually sound like an expert in your field
And so. Much. More.

A Ted Talk is a wonderful way to wake up your awareness of what is possible. But it is not a substitute for actual, targeted, personalized instruction in improving your instrument.

That takes an investment of time, energy, focus and the skills of someone who knows how to get you where you want to be.

It’s time to get serious about developing your voice, your career, your life.
