Happy Lunar New Year

Feb 17  , 2026 - by Contributor - Voice Articles

The Year of the Fire Horse brings strength, endurance and freedom. And we are really going to need it. With AI taking over, power games playing across nations, prices rising and new thinking emerging, we at least still have each other. Yes...AI can fake your voice...and now can even display sentiment convincingly, however, you are still in charge of how you sound. Protect your voice and use it for building bridges between people. This is an important time be heard.

It's time to fall in love with your Voice

Feb 14  , 2026 - by Contributor - Voice Articles

One romance that will last a lifetime is falling in love with your voice. Many us initailly say we dislike the sound of our voice. Why? for the simple reason is that it doesn't sound "like us". How come? It's because you hear yourself differently than other people do. When you speak your voice vibrates  through the bones of your head as well as bounces off of walls etc and comes back to your ears. Basically, You are hearing yourself in "stereo". However, when you hear yourself like others do...simply through your ears,you don't sound as rich and resonant ... more "mono".It takes a while to get used to how you really sound too. But guess what. By improving how you use your voice, you'll come across like a better sounding version of you (even to yourself!). 

What's up for you this year?

Have you recorded your AI Voice yet? If you are beginning the journey into AI automation you may be thinking about recording an AI voice replica of yourself. You can use this voice of yourself in various software programs such as Descript to edit yourself in and out of a video or podcast. It's wild! Before you do the recording though, we recommend you learn how to speak with your best voice. Do our Personal Voice Coaching course to learn how.

Learn one or Lose one.

We all have one. An accent that is. Some people love theirs, others don't. We think that accents make the world more interesting...providing you can be understood. We have people coming to us all the time to get help to soften their accent or learn a new one for a movie or play they are in. We do this by showing them new mouth movements and mindset...all the time encouraging them to be authentically themselves. You are always you...no matter what accent you have.

Voice Pitch and Money

Aug 4 , 2025 - by Contributor - Voice Articles

New research has discovered something very interesting. “I was interested in whether the sound of our voices can also change people’s behaviour, particularly when it comes to financial decisions".- says researcher Jillian J. M. O’Connor,. Well it does! Higher pitched voices won the day, surprising the researchers who noted that previous research suggested deeper voices were considered to be more honest and trustworthy. Maybe so in some circumstances...however, where money is concerned both men and women with higher pitched voices were considered to be the most trustworthy.

Who do you talk to these days? Is it a lover, a spouse, a child? It is a friend or foe or someone you've never met before? All of these people deserve respect.
