Episode 11: Losing your voice when delivering a workshop? You’re doing it wrong with Emmanuella Grace
In this First Time Facilitator episode, Emmanuella Grace from Find Your Voice Australia explains what your voice is telling people. After running full-day workshops, she shares her ideas on preventing voice loss, and the fundamental things you can do to look after your voice. We explore longer-term approaches to creating stronger voice presence, which involves exploring your mindset.
In this episode you’ll learn
How to look after the instrument that matters the most in your facilitation
What to do when the adrenaline is high before a big presentation (and how to avoid your vocal chords from closing over)
The secret of the three second pause and how you can use it at your next meeting
Why you need to talk out loud before preparing for a workshop (rather than just reading your notes)
Why you hate hearing your voice when it’s played back to you
