Expanding Our Capacity

Published on: 27th March, 2026

Conflict is scary. In relationship, at work, or when you’re singing in a group, it can be tempting to sit in discomfort rather than speak up. How can you give yourself permission to advocate for positive change?

In this episode, I explain

  1. The very simple - but very big - place to start grounding your ability to change things.
  2. Ways to develop the sense of belonging that will empower you to advocate for yourself and your peers.
  3. The mindset you need to believe in yourself and the validity of your feelings.

Does singing feel so difficult, painful, or embarrassing that you hide it from the people you love? Does speaking feel scratchy, exhausting, breathless, or forced?

Singer and voice teacher Michèle Voillequé teaches the art and science of sounding and feeling the best you can. If you love the sound of your ideas, but hate the sound of your voice, be sure to subscribe to Can’t Wait to Hear You.
