Warm up your voice in a way that is simple and repeatable so the real you can shine.
Connect your warm-up with whatever you are really thinking and feeling, no adorning or adjusting is necessary. An easy flow of thought & feeling on vibrations is the only ask.
Keep it real. Keep it simple. As Kristin used to say, “I don’t want to hear your voice. I want to hear you.”
