Podcasts about authentic voice

What if the way you speak—or don't speak—was shaped more by survival than by choice? In this solo episode, Carole Jean Whittington dives into how shadow work can reveal hidden fears, unmet needs, and the unspoken patterns that impact the way autistic women communicate.You'll learn how masking, alexithymia, and trauma may be influencing your communication style—whether that's silence, shutdown, over-explaining, or people-pleasing. Carole Jean shares how uncovering these shadow patterns can help you reclaim your voice, speak your truth, and ask for what you need with clarity and self-trust.

Within teams, organizations, and interpersonal relationships, creating an environment in which everyone feels free to express their ideas and opinions is crucial for achieving optimal results. However, people often hesitate to say what's really on their minds, particularly if they believe that it may conflict with widely held views or expectations. The key to communicating more skillfully lies in finding your authentic voice, or the one that supports who you need to be in order to best serve a situation.  As the founder of Abella Consulting and Say It Skillfully Inc., Molly Tschang empowers senior management teams to win as one. With expertise in over 80 mergers and acquisitions, she has guided executives through the intricate human dynamics of transformational change and growth. Molly hosts the popular Say It Skillfully podcast and video series, and is a TEDx speaker and member of Marshall Goldsmith's 100 Coaches. She serves on the boards of several privately held companies and the Cornell Engineering College Council, and is a strong advocate of social enterprise. Molly's first book with co-author Marshall Goldsmith, forwarded by Ken Blanchard, is titled, “Say It Skillfully: Speak Up. Make Your Words Matter. Win Together.” Her mission is to ensure that everyone is seen, heard, and understood to work better, work together, and drive real impact. In Episode 230 of The Mindset Game® podcast, Molly discusses the following: Common fears that may prevent people from speaking up, and actionable strategies for overcoming them A framework for getting grounded within yourself to identify who you authentically need to be in a given situation, tuning into others to see how they may be experiencing the situation, and coming together as a team in order to have more constructive conversations Practical tips for enhancing your communication skills — particularly when navigating challenging conversations To download Molly's mini-audiobook, “Say It Skillfully: The Me-You-We Framework,” visit https://sayitskillfully.zoundy.com/me-you-we, or visit https://www.sayitskillfully.com to access her other resources.  To learn more about The Mindset Game® podcast, visit www.TheMindsetGame.com.

Today, I interview Dr. Julie Lopez, who spent much of her life perfecting a performative voice to fit in and avoid rejection. Adopted as an infant and raised without biological connections, she unconsciously shaped her identity around external approval. She excelled in academics, leadership, and later, a high-powered consulting career, yet deep inside, she felt disconnected from her true self.Despite outward success, whispers of dissatisfaction grew louder. A pivotal trip to Spain, combined with years of introspection, made her realize she had been living by survival-driven patterns rather than authentic choices. She left her prestigious career behind and pursued psychology, focusing on implicit memory—the hidden codes that shape behavior, fears, and confidence.Now, Julie helps high achievers uncover and rewire these unconscious patterns through her work and book, Live Empowered. Her journey is a powerful reminder that true confidence isn't just about speaking well—it's about speaking from a place of deep authenticity.__________________Dr Julie Lopez delights in guiding high achievers, executives and CEOs through the “unconscious advantage” so they can move aside hidden roadblocks to health, wealth and personal alignment. She is an author, speaker, entrepreneur and human systems expert, particularly versed at working with implicit memory.__________________Find Julie here:https://www.instagram.com/drjulielopez/https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-julie-lopez/Support the showI'm Dr. Doreen Downing and I help people find their voice so they can speak without fear.

Millennias ago, the world's first-recorded priestesses served as the vessel and voice of the Goddess for powerful kings and empires across Mesopotamia, Anatolia and the Levant. My guest this week, Lisa Moriah, is a Mesopotamian and Biblical goddess wisdom keeper, shamanic priestess, somatic sound healer, and temple sales & marketing coach. Her work supports ancient-future devotion that is steeped in text and history, bridging the millennias between the earliest-recorded priestesses and modern women. Lisa believes your body and voice are portals to ancient power and she shares this wisdom and more in this episode.On this guest episode, I ask Lisa to explain how sound is the most feminine of all healing modalities, what is “somatic sound?” and how women use this to perform self-healing for trauma. She shares about how she uses some very ancient technologies for sound healing, based in Abrahamic religious tradition and finding Goddess in Abrahamic religious tradition. I ask how she came to specialize in transmitting the presence of Goddess in sacred texts and where does Goddess reclamation work intersect with sound. Lisa is creating a safe harbor for Women who are ready to reclaim the Goddess within free from standard religion, a beautiful offering and fascinating work! BIO: Lisa Moriah is a Mesopotamian and Biblical goddess wisdom keeper, shamanic priestess, somatic sound healer, and temple sales & marketing coach. Her work supports ancient-future devotion that is steeped in text and history, bridging the millennias between the earliest-recorded priestesses and modern women. She loves nothing more than amplifying the wisdom of ancient feminine voices for audiences today. Sound is Lisa Moriah's primary healing tool—including voice, rhythm, early temple instruments, and Eastern musical modes called makams. By reviving the path of the En priestesses of Sumer, and the Qadosha priestesses of the Israelite temple, she helps women re-member the goddess heritage that birthed their Abrahamic faith of origin. Practically, this work also activates authentic voice and dissolves inner blocks—so feminine creativity and leadership can flow unhindered. Lisa Moriah's ritual and transformational work is underpinned by seven years of goddess devotion and ritual, ten years of online business, and twenty years of professional writing.

In this conversation, Andrew Carruthers and Renee Marie chat about authenticity, rebranding, and personal growth. If you've ever felt the tension between who you've been and who you're becoming, this episode is for you.I sat down with Andrew Carruthers, a powerhouse in the beauty industry with 27 years of experience, to dive into the real process of rebranding—not just in business, but in identity, passion, and purpose.We talked about:✨ How burnout can be a signal for a deeper transition✨ The difference between external expectations vs. internal truth✨ The power of daily introspection to guide your next evolution✨ Why slowing down often leads to the most aligned decisionsThis conversation isn't just about shifting a brand—it's about mastering yourself in the process. Because rebranding isn't just about what the world sees—it's about staying rooted in who you truly are.Learn more about Renee Marie's "Inner Mastery" Program HERELearn more about Andrews's offerings HERETakeaways:Authenticity is key in communication and personal branding.Rebranding can be a journey of self-discovery and alignment.Burnout can lead to significant transitions in one's career.Self-reflection is essential for personal growth and clarity.Trusting your inner guidance is crucial for making decisions.Slowing down can lead to better decision-making and clarity.Individuality in success is important; there is no one-size-fits-all approach.Expectations and 'shoulds' can lead to suffering and dissatisfaction.Engaging with mentors or coaches can provide valuable external perspectives.Finding your unique path is a vital part of personal and professional evolution.Finding Your Authentic VoiceThe Art of Rebranding Yourself"It's not about the quantity, it's about who shows up.""I could do that, but what is my calling?""I want to walk my own unique path."Chapters00:00 Navigating Change: A Journey of Rebranding06:00 The Evolution of Passion: From Hair to Coaching11:54 Identifying Internal vs. External Influences17:49 The Importance of Daily Introspection23:56 Trusting Your Unique Path30:02 The Power of Stillness in Decision Making38:05 Authenticity in Communication41:08 The Journey of Rebranding44:05 Guidance vs. Coaching47:17 The Importance of External Perspectives

If I've learned anything as a thought leader in the age of the Internet it's this: when it comes to sharing your message, it's not always easy to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Even though we want to create a ripple in the fabric of existence with who we are, what we know and what we do — even though we know the world needs to hear what we were put on this Earth to say — there can be so much internal noise and pressure that keeps us from fully saying it.So much pressure to say it quickly to capture someone's attention. To say it perfectly so it's received as we intended. To say it potently so it gathers engagement. To say it honestly and boldly even if others might get triggered, judge you, criticize you, attack you or even “cancel” you.But I believe that if you're really here to make a difference, there will come a moment where you decide that the fear of bumping into any of these unwanted experiences becomes too heavy — and you're forced to make a choice: keep censoring your self-expression — or break free from your patterns, unleash your voice and start actually leading a movement with your authentic truth.This is exactly what I'm chatting about inside of today's episode with Lois McKenzie. Follow me on InstagramConnect with LoisIf you found this episode helpful, it would mean the world to me if you could take a moment to rate and review this podcast and share it with a friend.

Today, I interview DevSuroop Kaur, who grew up as the youngest of three sisters in a family where she often felt muted and silenced. As a young adult, she searched for herself through diverse experiences, including working in Alaska, battling addiction, and struggling with a fear of speaking that kept her from fully expressing who she was.Her turning point came in her early twenties when she discovered Kundalini Yoga through the Western Sikh community. Fully immersing herself in the structured spiritual practices, she became a yoga teacher, a chant leader, and an active member of the community. Music and Naad Yoga gave her a sense of grounding and connection to her voice. However, decades later, she faced a crisis of conscience and chose to leave the community, freeing herself to reclaim her authentic voice.Now, DevSuroop helps others empower their voices by drawing on her rich experiences in yoga, music, and leadership. She empowers her clients to express themselves with confidence and live in alignment with their true purpose.__________________DevSuroop Kaur empowers soul-led entrepreneurs and speakers to unlock the full potential of their authentic voice. With over 40 years of experience in executive business leadership, yogic practices, and music performance, she is a sought-after voice empowerment coach.

Today, I interview Meg Dennison, who grew up in a rural area where life was quiet, and opportunities to connect were limited. In her household, her father's preference for peace and order meant that noise and self-expression were often discouraged. While the stillness of her environment shaped her early years, Meg's lively and rebellious spirit found subtle ways to emerge. As she grew older, her natural curiosity led her to a career as a reporter. She loved asking questions and diving deep into people's stories, but when faced with opportunities to share her own voice—such as participating in public discussions—she was gripped by fear. Her nervousness about saying the wrong thing or being judged often caused her to retreat from these opportunities.A turning point came when Meg decided she wouldn't let fear or her discomfort with speaking hold her back any longer. She began taking classes to practice. These experiences helped free her voice from the nervousness that once paralyzed her. Along the way, she realized that reclaiming her voice wasn't just about performance but about finding a deeper sense of presence and confidence through inner work.Today, Meg uses her journey to inspire and guide others. As a coach, she helps individuals practice conscious leadership, embrace their authority, and connect with their voices in meaningful ways. Her story is a testament to how practice, presence, and inner work can transform fear into confidence and inspire others to express themselves fully.__________________For over a decade, Meg Dennison has guided women through the practice of conscious leadership, helping them step into their authority and meet their ambitions. Her work includes one-on-one coaching, corporate team development, business workshops, and hosting transformative retreats at her home in Santa Cruz, California.Meg's lifelong passion has been supporting women and girls in their leadership journeys. She is dedicated to ensuring that women have the skills and support they need to share their brilliance and bring their visions to life.Her own path reflects the resilience and transformation she teaches. Meg reimagined her 38-year marriage to the man she met on a college newspaper, reshaped her career in midlife, and even made a cross-country move after raising her three children.__________________Find Meg here:Website - www.megdennison.com LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/megdennison Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/meg_dennison Youtube - https://youtube.com/@megdenn Support the showI'm Dr. Doreen Downing and I help people find their voice so they can speak without fear.

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Lynn Whitbeck, Founder and CEO of Petite2Queen.Lynn grew up in a mid-sized town, and her experience in the Girl Scouts, where she spearheaded a cookie-selling strategy with a shy friend, sparked her love for sales. That early success, along with her passion for helping people, laid the foundation for her sales expertise. Over time, Lynn moved into outside sales after graduate school and eventually founded Petite2Queen. Her company focuses on helping business owners develop winning sales strategies, particularly by understanding their clients' "why" and building meaningful, long-term relationships.Lynn also discusses how her first client came from a podcast appearance, underscoring the power of personalized communication and referrals in her business. She emphasizes the importance of understanding who the ideal client is, creating value-driven follow-up, and being selective about where to focus marketing efforts. Petite2Queen's success is grounded in Lynn's genuine desire to serve her clients and avoid cookie-cutter solutions, which has allowed her to create lasting impact and achieve measurable growth for her clients.Uncover the art of impactful sales with Lynn Whitbeck and learn how understanding the "why" changes everything in this episode of The First Customer!Guest Info:Petite2Queenhttp://www.petite2queen.com/Lynn Whitbeck's LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lynnwhitbeck/Connect with Jay on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jayaigner/The First Customer Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@thefirstcustomerpodcastThe First Customer podcast websitehttps://www.firstcustomerpodcast.comFollow The First Customer on LinkedInhttp://www.linkedin.com/company/the-first-customer-podcast/
