Warm up your Voice with Nic Redman
I chat with Nic Redman about your voice in this week's episode!
Nic is a voice coach and helps podcasters get their voices ready to record.
Nic shares that it's about prepping your voice so you don't have to think about it whilst you're recording.
The exercises that she recommends (and are featured in her book "On the Mic") can help overcome the barriers and hang-ups we all have about our voices.
Nic is a big advocate of warming up your voice and is great for regulating your breath, releasing tension and helping with nerves that can affect your speech.
It's not about changing your accent or the way you talk but making your voice and speech sound the best they can be.
I find the whole thing rather fascinating and am surprised I haven't heard more about this in the podcasting space.
