Your voice communicates leadership long before your words do.In this solo episode of Scaling Nerds, Marina Schmidt explores a subtle but powerful communication skill most founders never think about: vocal placement.LinksConnect with the host:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/schmidt-marina/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠marina@wearekinetik.comCould use some help with your comms? Work with Marina via ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.wearekinetik.com/⁠⁠Why do some people instantly sound trustworthy, calm, and authoritative — while others unintentionally sound nervous, strained, or less confident than they actually are?The answer often lies in where the voice is coming from in the body.Drawing from vocal training, podcasting experience, and hundreds of founder conversations, Marina explains how founders can use their voice more intentionally when pitching investors, speaking on stage, or leading teams.You will learn how different vocal placements — from head voice to chest voice to belly voice — affect how others perceive your confidence, credibility, and presence.Most importantly, Marina shares simple exercises you can use before an important presentation or pitch to ground your voice and project calm authority.If you are a technical founder who wants to sound as credible as the work you are building, this episode will help you become more aware of the leadership signal hidden in your voice.In This EpisodeWhy the voice of a pilot can instantly calm nervous passengersThe concept of vocal placement and why it matters for foundersThe five common places people speak from: head, mouth, throat, chest, and bellyWhy chest and belly voice create more authority and trustThe difference between speaking loudly and projecting your voiceHow vocal strain and sore throats reveal poor vocal placementA simple breathing exercise to ground your voice before a pitch or presentationWhy smiling slightly while speaking can make your voice sound warmerHow founders can consciously train their voice for leadership presenceYour voice shapes first impressions.Before people process your ideas, they interpret your vocal tone, grounding, and confidence.Authority is often a physical phenomenon.Speaking from the chest or belly creates a grounded vocal tone that naturally communicates credibility.Projection is not about volume.It is about directing your voice so it carries through a room without strain.Warmth can be heard.Even a subtle smile changes the vocal pattern and makes a speaker sound more approachable.Before an important pitch or presentation:Find a private space.Place your hands on your lower back.Lean slightly backward in a gentle backbend.Take slow deep belly breaths.This activates the diaphragm and helps move your voice into a more grounded register.Key TakeawaysPractical Exercise From This EpisodeWho This Episode Is For

Ово место је заиста лепо,” одговорила је искрено, и њене очи заплесаше од знатижеље.En: "Hello, Jovan. This place is really nice," she replied sincerely, and her eyes danced with curiosity.Sr: Разговор је текао текуће, и Јован се већ осећао опуштеније.En: The conversation flowed smoothly, and Jovan already felt more relaxed.Sr: Покушавао је да остави добар утисак, причајући о својим интересовањима и шаљивим анегдотама из свакодневног живота.En: He tried to make a good impression, talking about his interests and sharing funny anecdotes from everyday life.Sr: Милица је слушала пажљиво, повремено се смејући његовим шалама.En: Milica listened attentively, occasionally laughing at his jokes.Sr: У ваздуху је било осећаја обећања и очекивања.En: There was a sense of promise and expectation in the air.Sr: Док је Јован замишљено гледао у чашу, одједном је угледао познато лице како улази у кафић.En: As Jovan stared thoughtfully at his glass, he suddenly saw a familiar face entering the café.Sr: Његова сестра Драгана.En: His sister Dragana.Sr: Није је очекивао овде, а њен израз лица говорио је да ни она није очекивала њега.En: He didn't expect her here, and her expression indicated she didn't expect to see him either.Sr: Коракнула је према њима, а Јованов осмех помало је замрзао.En: She stepped towards them, and Jovan's smile froze a bit.Sr: “Јоване! Шта радиш овде?” упитала је са благом збуњеношћу.En: "Jovan! What are you doing here?" she asked with slight confusion.Sr: “Само излазак... са... пријатељицом,” брзо је објаснио.En: "Just out... with... a friend," he quickly explained.Sr: Милица је гледала Драгану с интересовањем.En: Milica looked at Dragana with interest.Sr: “Извини, Милице, ово је моја сестра, Драгана,” представио ју је, покушавајући да изгледа опуштено.En: "Sorry, Milica, this is my sister, Dragana," he introduced her, trying to appear relaxed.Sr: “Драго ми је!” одговорила је Милица љубазно.En: "Nice to meet you!" Milica replied kindly.Sr: Пауза је била потребна.En: A pause was necessary.Sr: Јован је схватио да би неочекивано присуство његове сестре могло да стави његове планове на тест.En: Jovan realized that his sister's unexpected presence might put his plans to the test.Sr: Морао је одлучити: претварати се да ништа није било или се суочити искрено са ситуацијом.En: He had to decide: pretend nothing happened or honestly face the situation.Sr: “Извини, Милице, ово је требало да буде наша вече.En: "Sorry, Milica, this was supposed to be our evening.Sr: Можда бисмо могли касније наставити наш разговор сами?” рекао је Јован, гледајући у Милицу.En: Maybe we could continue our conversation alone later?" Jovan said, looking at Milica.Sr: Драгана се извињавајући насмешила и рекла: “Обећавам, нећу дуго сметати.”En: Dragana smiled apologetically and said, "I promise, I won't bother you for long."Sr: Милица је климнула.En: Milica nodded.Sr: “Нема проблема, Јоване.En: "No problem, Jovan.Sr: Лепо је упознати вашу породицу, макар и случајно.”En: It's nice to meet your family, even if by chance."Sr: Док је Драгана завршила своје кратко задржавање, извинила се и напустила их, прича је наставила мирније бити.En: As Dragana finished her brief stay, she apologized and left them; the story continued more peacefully.Sr: Милица је гледала Јована са новим интересовањем.En: Milica looked at Jovan with new interest.Sr: “Знаш, волим кад људи могу бити отворени,” рекла је.En: "You know, I love it when people can be open," she said.Sr: Јован се насмејао, осетивши како му се поверење враћа.En: Jovan laughed, feeling his confidence return.Sr: Како је вечер одмицала, разговор је био све дубљи и искренији.En: As the evening wore on, the conversation became deeper and more sincere.Sr: Јован је осетио да је овај сусрет био почетак нечег посебног.En: Jovan felt that this meeting was the beginning of something special.Sr: Ушао је са жељом да остави добар утисак, али је схватио да је најважније бити истињски.En: He had come with the desire to leave a good impression, but he realized that being genuine was most important.Sr: Када су се растајали на крају вечери, осећај је био јасан – ово је дефинитивно заслуживало други сусрет.En: When they parted at the end of the evening, the feeling was clear—this definitely deserved a second meeting.Sr: Његова нервоза истопила се попут снега напољу, а цвркутав осећај наде ушао је на њено место.En: His nervousness melted away like the snow outside, and a chirping feeling of hope took its place.Sr: Милица је махнула, и са њеним осмехом, Јован је знао да је начинио прави избор.En: Milica waved, and with her smile, Jovan knew he had made the right choice.

Join the FREE Astro-Herbalism Mini-Course that's happening right now: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/astro-herbalism-mini-course/ In medical astrology, the Sun represents the gravitational center of the psyche and of the body. Just as the planets orbit the Sun, so too does our physiology organize itself around a central core of vitality, expressed through the heart, the circulation of blood, and the distribution of warmth throughout our organism.  When the solar principle is strong, we see resilience, clarity, steady immunity, and a sense of inner coherence. When it is weak, patterns of fatigue, coldness, poor circulation, and psychoemotional instability may emerge. In this episode, I'll explore four medicinal plants that are powerful expressions of the solar archetype. Through the lenses of heart, warmth, vitality, and spirit, we'll examine how Hawthorn, Angelica, Ashwagandha, and St. John's Wort restore the solar force within us, bridging alchemical philosophy with grounded clinical application. Here's what you'll learn: The deeper alchemical and medical astrology meaning of the Sun as the center of the psyche and the body The Sun's rulership of the heart, cardiovascular system, and core vitality How solar vitality influences immune strength and resilience Why Hawthorn is a primary cardiovascular trophorestorative and Shen stabilizer How Angelica restores warmth, circulation, and digestive fire in cold, deficient patterns How Ashwagandha builds steady, calm vitality rather than overstimulation How St. John's Wort protects and uplifts the psychoemotional "solar spirit," including its liver and nervous system connections   ———————————— CONNECT WITH SAJAH AND WHITNEY ———————————— To get free in depth mini-courses and videos, visit our blog at:  http://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com   Get daily inspiration and plant wisdom on our Facebook and Instagram channels: http://www.facebook.com/EvolutionaryHerbalism https://www.instagram.com/evolutionary_herbalism/   Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyP63opAmcpIAQg1M9ShNSQ   Get a free 5-week course when you buy a copy of the book, Evolutionary Herbalism: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/evolutionary-herbalism-book/   Shop our herbal products:  https://naturasophiaspagyrics.com/   ———————————— ABOUT THE PLANT PATH ———————————— The Plant Path is a window into the world of herbal medicine.

Send a textIn this Friday 5 episode of The Autoimmune RESET Podcast, I'm talking about something that many people with autoimmune conditions experience, but that isn't always discussed in enough depth — hand health.For many individuals, the hands are one of the first places symptoms show up. Cold fingers, colour changes, stiffness, pain, weakness, or reduced dexterity can all reflect deeper processes happening in the body, including circulation instability, nervous system dysregulation, connective tissue vulnerability, or immune-driven inflammation. Conditions such as Raynaud's phenomenon, inflammatory arthritis, hypermobility syndromes, and autoimmune connective tissue disorders often manifest visibly in the hands long before other symptoms fully develop.In this episode, I share both clinical insights and personal observations, alongside five practical strategies that can make a meaningful difference. We explore how stabilising circulation supports tissue health, why nervous system regulation plays a central role in blood flow, and how connective tissue and joint support influence long-term hand function. I also discuss the importance of warmth, sensory stimulation, and daily micro-practices that help maintain mobility and comfort.This conversation emphasises that supporting hand health is not only about external measures — creams, braces, or heat — but also about addressing internal physiology, including nutrient status, inflammation, and nervous system balance.As always, the goal is not perfection, but consistency. Small daily practices layered over time can create significant improvements.If you experience persistent pain, colour changes, numbness, or reduced function in your hands, it is always worth investigating underlying drivers rather than simply accepting symptoms as inevitable.Key TakeawaysThe hands are often an early indicator of immune and connective tissue issues.Circulation stability is fundamental for tissue health and comfort.Nervous system regulation directly influences blood flow to the extremities.Supporting connective tissue and joints improves strength and resilience.Warmth and sensory stimulation can significantly improve microcirculation.Consistent daily care matters more than occasional interventions.Persistent symptoms should prompt deeper investigation.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Hand Health and Autoimmune Clues 02:25 Stabilising Circulation 05:49 Nervous System Regulation 07:49 Supporting Connective Tissue and Joints 10:41 Keeping Hands Warm 12:07 Sensory Tools for Microcirculation 14:24 Final Thoughts and Support→ I personally use and recommend Shakti, because it's one of the simplest ways to shift out of “fight or flight” and into a calmer state — supporting relaxation, body awareness, and better sleep quality over time.Use my code: VJ10 for 10% off at checkout: https://www.shaktimat.co.uk/vj

Send a textEloquently spoken Sabrina Harris shares stories from a lynching in Alabama that forces her family to become part of the Great Migration. In this movement, approximately six million African Americans moved from the rural Southern United States to the urban North, Midwest, and West between 1910 and 1970.  This story strongly echoes the ones from “The Warmth of Other Suns”, the historical study by Isabel Wilkerson. With insight into how some Blacks, at times, feared the means to achieve Civil Rights, Haris speaks of her desire for change as a teenager, and her recollections about the night Barack Obama was elected President of the United States. She speaks about hope for our nation's future. If there is only one podcast episode you listen to this year, the conversation with Sabrina Harris is the one to hear and learn from.

This high-fidelity soundscape transports the listener directly into the heart of an awakening lakeside forest, where the first warm, sunny day of spring fills the air with light and sound. The most striking element of the recording is the rhythmic drumming of a common snipe echoing from the heights, cutting through the clear sky. In the shelter of the trees, a robin trills its silvery melody while the lively calls of thrushes resonate through the branches. From the shoreline, the cozy chatter of ducks and the deep, primal boom of a bittern rise from the reeds. The atmosphere is completed by the distant, solemn trumpeting of a whooper swan, tying the entire landscape together. This crystal-clear recording captures the awakening of Northern nature in all its richness, offering an authentic and calming listening experience where every wingbeat and chirp feels as if it's happening right beside you.nature sounds, bird singing, spring forest, high fidelity, field recording, birdwatching, relaxation, ASMR, common snipe, whooper swan, deep listening, forest ambiance, luonnonäänet, kevät, linnunlaulu, meditaatio, rentoutuminen, rantametsä, taivaanvuohi, laulujoutsen, kaulushaikara, punarinta, kenttätallennus

In today's episode, I'm breaking down what it really means to be a Relational CEO—the fast-moving, people-first leader who builds trust quickly, creates a magnetic community, and can grow an audience almost effortlessly. If you've ever been told "you just need better boundaries," but that advice feels like it's asking you to become colder or less you… this conversation is for you. We're talking about how your warmth is a competitive advantage (not a liability), why it can quietly turn into burnout as you scale, and the simple shift that keeps your business profitable and sustainable: structure that protects your connection so you can keep serving powerfully without leaking your energy everywhere. Timeline Highlights [00:00] - Why this CEO Types series exists (and why mainstream business advice doesn't fit everyone) [03:00] - The Relational CEO core wiring: people-oriented + fast-paced decision-making [05:02] - The superpower: building trust fast, creating safe spaces, and growing loyal audiences naturally [07:08] - How relational energy fuels referrals, collaborations, and long-term client retention [09:46] - The "dark side" of being magnetic: attracting fans who love your vibe but won't buy [22:14] - Common blind spots: pricing swings, unclear deliverables, and over-delivering into exhaustion [30:21] - The big shift: structure isn't the opposite of warmth—it's the container that protects it [31:12] - The candle metaphor: why your "flame" needs a holder to stay sustainable [32:50] - Practical structure: clear offer scope, Voxer boundaries, and client expectations that prevent resentment [37:19] - Messaging that filters: getting clear on who you're not for (so you attract buyers, not just followers) [38:42] - Sales leadership: creating decision containers so you stop getting ghosted [40:06] - Delivery discipline: structure that supports transformation (not endless expansion) [41:27] - Calendar protection: building systems so your energy isn't the engine of the business [45:31] - Real-world example: Cory Ruth / The Women's Dietitian and scaling warmth + authority with PCOS content Top Quotes "Your likability is not the problem. Your lack of structure is." "The mainstream obsession with hype-first marketing is actively working against a huge portion of experts who are genuinely excellent at what they do." "Structure is not the opposite of warmth. Structure protects your warmth." "It's really easy for you to confuse being responsive with being of service." "You can still be warm inside your container. You just stop letting the container expand infinitely." "Your warmth and your friendliness and your likeability is a gift. It's not a liability." Links & Resources Take the CEO Type Quiz Mentioned example: Cory Ruth (The Women's Dietitian) If this episode helped you, I'd love it if you'd follow the show, leave a rating and review, and share it with a friend, especially someone who leads with warmth and connection and needs permission to protect their energy while they grow.
