It's Tuesday and I'm here with you. So what I want to share with you is a really exciting story that happened recently. So what happened was one of my clients I heard my podcast. You know, usually I don't share my podcast with my

1:30 clients, but they went ahead and listened to it. And I want to give a shout out to her, Jennifer. And what Jennifer said was that while she was in the gym and she found that there was a senior over there and could not figure out different machines, even though the trainer or the gym member had shown her some of the machines beforehand. So she took that time and spent almost fifteen to twenty minutes with the senior to help her carve out her own workout. Not only that, she also helped her learn all the machines. And not only that, goodus to Jennifer. I'm so so proud of you. Jennifer also set up a couple of times with her when she would do the workout when the senior would be coming in. And what happened is that this wonderful senior lady was so thrilled that she shard that.

2:39 You know, she had been scared to come to the gym looking awkward and not knowing what to do, what not to do. So Jennifer has struck a beautiful friendship. And guess what Now that wonderful senior lady is going to the gym four times a week and think about how your act of kindness can change somebody's life. So keep that kind of circle going, take that one hour every month and help somebody with no strings attached. And I want to thank you each and every one of you for your kindness in buying our books Expert to Influencer and The Entrepreneur's Garden. Both the books are going to change your lives.

4:14 bring in our guest. Welcome Sloan. Good morning, Devia, So thank you for joining us. Loan, share with us if you recall a moment from your childhood, whether it's a moment or a person or anything from your childhood that you still remember to this day. Oh, that is a really difficult question. We're still getting to know each other, you and I. My childhood was actually not a very good one. Sorry to hear that, but it's exact exactly why I do the work that I do today. I've been doing deep dives into why do I help people find their voice? Because my memories, uh were as growing up I did not have a voice.

5:16 I given choice, there are not many options, and it's why I do the work I do today. You know, with with all people, but particularly with women, with young women girls, in showing them, teaching them that they they do matter, their voice does matter, that they are valuable. In fact, as I'm listening to you with your introduction and your story, uh, you know we're going to be talking about the voice today, and you have so much love and nurturing in your tone like you draw, you draw your listener in with with the tonal quality to sound, and you can hear the genuine care in your voice. So you know, my first feeling and entering intoday is oh, you just calm, peace, support.

6:15 So to answer your question, sadly, I don't have you know my memories are not to be shared on this podcast that I understand that it's for another show for sure. Yeah, I understand that perfectly, slowly. And here's the thing, based on what you're telling me, is that even though you had a rough childhood, you made a lemonade out of it. Even though you were given a lemon, you didn't have a voice. But now you're helping others find their voice. How beautiful is that? So share with us as you grew or as you stepped into your adulthood, how did you learn to find your own voice? Yet you know it was it was a lot of trial and error. I was the oldest of three children, and my mom was working a lot just to keep a roof over our head and food on the table. So I became actually the caregiver for my siblings at an early age, and it created conflict because I was expected as a child to do adult things, but when I wanted the freedom to go out and be an adult, particularly in my teenage years, I would say, created a lot of conflict. So I was always getting a lot of mixed messages.

7:45 And then even into young adulthood, I was still you know, fighting, I was still I feel like I spent a lifetime. I was also very sick as a child. I was in the hospital every year, upper respiratory, lung issues. Again, coming back to voice, A lot of the work I do with the voice is very healing, very physical. But somehow, I think with all of the conflict, the experiences, I spent a lifetime, you know, trying to make my way, you know, to prove, to prove my worth. That was a big piece of my life in finding my own voice. The way I went about it was not always healthy. I met a lot of trouble even as a young adult. A lot of the jobs that I had, I was frequently out of trying to be helpful would overstep my boundaries. I would offer help where help was not asked, because as it you know, growing up these things that were expected of me. Now I'm a young adult adulting and jumping in where I'm not asked to be of service and really creating even more conflict, more problems because my mole are saying, stop slung, I don't need your help. I didn't ask for your help. So that has created a lot of issues around

9:20 my life. And when I actually began the vocal practice, it actually started just to create income. I was in a band, I was certified to teach people. It was really more about singing. This was twenty something years ago, and it was really just about, you know, creating income to pay for my hair and my costumes. And then I started to see interesting things started coming in. People started coming in with vocal health issues, things with their voice and vocal fatigue. I began to receive prescriptions literally from ear nose throat doctors and speech therapists were writing descriptions to people to go get vocal coaching, and so I started to see enough of those that I took note and thought, wow, I really should pay attention to this. So that's what really got me entered into the medical field as an expert in voice and some of the things I've seen. I wasn't always sure I would be able to help the client. But the method, the technique that I've been using, it's really about building muscle strength, flexibility, and endurance awareness around how you're using your voice, and it was successful. Some of the things I wasn't sure that they would work, but I was like, well, you know, I'm not. You know, that was my caveat when the client would come into work with is I've never seen this before. This is what

10:52 I've been doing for X amount of years. Let's try it and see what kind of result we can get. And fortunately the clients have all been you know, willing, and I mean from you know, people recovering from strokes, uh getting their speech back, cancer survivors, people under anesthesia where the when the anesthesia tube went in, uh, it clipped the side of the vocal cords, causing damage. It's it has been fascinating, div yet if I were to come back again another time, I think I would study the brain. I would be a neuroscience brain specialist in how our brain is attached to all of this, the neuralink, neuroplasticity, neural linguistics, it's it's fascinating, still fascinating to me after all of these years. What did Geoannie Sloan? And so, first of all, thank you for such a beautiful feedback that you shared with me about my voice. And then secondly, I just want to share with you what I'm hearing is that here was I can just picture that young girl eager to help and then just finding her way and you know, not knowing, not sure, and the teenage is so fragile,

12:22 whether it's boys or girls. They want to establish their own identity, and yet they're not sure. So they're either you know, a woman child or a male child. And as they're traveling through that journey, it's so precarious. It's almost like they're on the cliff. They don't know. Oh when everything goes well, and that jumping off the cliff becomes so exhilerating. And then right there when you jump off the cliff and you feel that you're just falling off into abyss. And I remember some of my times through my teenage where I wasn't sure, like okay, you know, I'm taking the step, I'm fully confident, and then you find that your confidence is left and it's just shredded into pieces like as if somebody is a shredder. So I remember seeing going through that, and it's beautiful. How you shied that when your clients game, we're very transparent and you shared with them what the expectation was. What are beautiful? So tell us that as you've worked with different people, what are some of the mistakes that you have seen that your clients make? Well, you know, the top five really come back to you in a nut and I have examples of professional women, male entrepreneurs, business owners, but you're the most common mistakes that I see. The number one is how we breathe is specifically connected to the tonal quality that comes out

14:01 of our mouth here and so not breathing correctly is the number one. And I would say, oh my gosh, if I had to put a number on it, give you, I would say, ninety percent of the people that come through my door are not breathing correctly. We are. We're shallow breathing. We're breathing up here into the shoulders, creating more stress and tension in our back and our neck. Most of the planet is disconnected from the lung capacity from the ribcage down, so not breathing correctly, which when we do that correctly, recalibrates our nervous system. It helps us center and ground and get calm. Unaware of tone. I shared a little bit about that.

14:46 You know, with your voice, you have such a calming you actually have a lot of water in your voice, water earth, which establishes you as an authority in your work. You know, monotone, this sound here where it's the same tone all the way across right, putting the listener to sleep. This is another another mistake that I see. And a rate of speech, speaking so fast. I've seen this with my with my kids, talking so fast that I have to ask them, can you please slow down and repeat that again? You know, mumbling, not opening up the mouth, and there's you know where people are being asked to repeat themselves again. So you know that those those are probably the most common that not breathing correctly, unaware of their tone, not you know, the monotone versus having some melody, a break, the power of the pause, speaking too fast, mumbling, and there's a whole list of others, uh, you know, vocal fry that's out there that I'm demonstrating that for for the viewers, for the listeners, because this is almost a culture thing that I've seen in young adults, and you know, especially if they're getting ready to enter the workforce.

16:06 Uh, it's I don't know where it came from. Uh, it's it's something that they're unaware of that it's even happening until I pointed out. And I use the example of your interview skills for example, you know, to two candidates, they perfectly fit, same education, same amount of experience. They look great, they sound great, but you have one who has clarity and their their voice is clean and clear, where the other one has this stuff going on in the voice. And I'm able to point out, you know, who do you think is going to get that job? The one with the clear, the clarity and the voice or the one using the vocal for aud they're not even aware they're using. It's more common than you now, all of a sudden, the listeners of you, you're going to start listening to people's voices like, oh my right, our awareness is now, Pete, Yeah, so that is. You know, you have brought up so many good points. So Sloan, can you tell us You mentioned that people are not aware of how they sound, and here's what happens.

17:14 So I was very fortunate to have had speaker training where a lot of things were pointed out, and even now every single day I'm learning and I'm learning from you right here. So how first step, how can people become aware of their voice? What can they do so that they're aware, like you know, how they're sounding, and especially as you mentioned, if someone is going for an interview, or even if they're presenting something important to the leadership team, or if they're presenting it to the colleagues, I mean, any place it is so important, like or if it's an entrepreneur going on LinkedIn Live or even doing a podcast interview, tell us, like, you know, how can they become aware? Diva, this is such a wonderful question.

18:04 I'm so glad that you were asking. My recommendation is to record yourself and whether you know that's on your computer. I love the devices the phones now, the quality of the recording devices on the phone, or if you're old school, you know, still using digital recorders there. Those are such a great tool. So whether it's you know you're doing all of the examples that you just mentioned, you know, I suggest that you actually I still record myself when I'm preparing for anything, I will record, I'll get a sample of that. A common thing for many many people, clients, they don't like hearing their voice on a recording device. So there is a definite common there's a disconnect between the brain, the ears, the body. They're like, oh, you know, that's that's why people come to me.

19:04 I don't like the sound of my voice on a recording machine. Or remember I remember the days of the answering machines on the telephones. Oh yeah. So my recommendation is definitely record yourself. It is really important. Listeners, audience, viewers. I can't say enough about how important it is for you to try to do your best to detach from the outcome, detach from your voice, needing to sound or be a particular way. Right, if you're listening to this, this interview, if you're watching this, it there.

19:45 You're here for a reason. You're here because you want to learn, you want to grow, you you want new tools. In order to do that, we have to do things that are uncomfortable, and for a lot of people, one of those uncomfortable things is recording your voice and giving it a listen and not judging it. This is the common thing. I don't like how my voice, so I really don't want to do that. I really don't want to do these workouts you're giving me, Sloan, they sound horrible. We need to take the judgment away in order to get to the other side. Does that make sense? Yes, definitely. And what you're telling is that setting yourself as an audience and if you're listening to your voice and okay, how does that sound? And hmm, it is how I wanted to say it. So that awareness is such a big piece because if you're not aware, then brain is designed in such a way that it loves to automate everything because it's designed to suffice, not optimize. So then you go, you Mary Bay, doing what you've been doing, and then thinking, hmm, why didn't this meeting tona or why I was untie able to influence or why what happened like you know this client liked or this colleague like this person and there so there's so many questions. So this can be one of the efforts and one of the tools that people can have. So now going

21:17 back to those five mistakes that you mentioned, can you show us how can people overcome those mistakes? Well, you know, one example, you have a woman. May I share an exam. I've had so many powerful examples, but how I've used this. I had so many successful you know men and women that have come through, and this is like the last little piece. They're very educated, multiple degrees. Alena is one of my favorites. This is woman is an aerospace engineer, very smart, and she was really being challenged by her teams, you know, fe frustrated, almost angry.

22:07 She was very sweet when she came to me, not feeling supported. Constant communication struggles in her company. The first thing I had to address with her. Now this, this is another thing. If English is not your primary language, if that is not the language you grew up with, that creates a whole nother set of problems. So her first language was Spanish, and you know, a culture rich with passion and fire, you know, as it relates to the elements I mentioned earlier. You have a lot of water and earth in your voice, dive. Yet it's very calming, it's very welcoming. Well, because she was so passionate about her work, the pace at which she spoke was very fast, it was very curt People often thought that she was actually angry, which would repel instead of attracting her team to want to collaborate with her, she was actually repelling her people instead of bringing them into work with her on her projects. So just a few adjustments that we did for her voice, you know, some of the mistakes that we addressed. First thing I did was we slowed her rate of speech. So we and we practiced this. We recorded this so she would, you know, preparing specifically for a project. I helped her she was going to be presenting, and so we recorded once through video and audio. Then she's able to go back watch listen. We slowed things down, so the tempo at

23:41 which she was speaking, we balanced out all that fire, that tone, that that uh, that passion. You know, she didn't it didn't mean it in the mean way, but the listener, her teams, the way they are receiving it was, wow, she's up, very nice. I'll keep it, I'll keep it family friendly. They were saying other things behind her back. But we just we calmed that fire down. We added added more water. We balanced that with more earth to have her feel more as an authority, more calm, more confident in her body. The water balanced out that fire, and she was most excited, you know, at the end of the day should take these back. And we worked for several weeks together and she just kept applying the principles that I was teaching her, and each week she had more success. But when we parted, the thing she was most excited about was the power of the pause. She was going into her meetings way more calm, feeling more productive, definitely feeling more engagement with her teams. But the pause, instead of her feeling like she needed to jump in or defend a perspective or her ideas, she would stop, wait, put it back on you know, the other other team members, ask

25:12 them for their thoughts. Uh. She said that was that was just a game changer for It was transformative. Uh. It really it changed everything and how she communicated and the success of just bringing the people together as a team to collaborate and work together instead of everyone feeling defensive like they had to defend their ideas and they had to defend you know, and and the agitation between them and her as their team leader. HM. That's a very powerful example of examples. Yeah, it's what you're talking about is a pause that it's okay, it's okay, to take a pause to think through what you're going to answer rather than jumping into it or interrupting someone. So that's very very powerful. And then you had mentioned a few so like breathing, let's now talk about how can people that's if somebody is a good speaker, how can they enhance and elevate their leadership skills? Like, do you have any vocal practices that you can share with the listeners and audience and viewers who can go and like implement in their lives immediately? Oh? Absolutely, you know some sort of a practice, and you know you you the listening, viewing audience.

26:41 If you are already speaking on stages, you might already have some sort of a practice or something that you do to get yourself in state. If you are new to presenting or leading or podcasting. And I still have my little vocal warm ups, but something that you can do. There are numerous things that you can do. I personally prefer there. It's a two parter for me. It takes less than five minutes. First grounding and centering. Well, I'm always suggesting to my clients they have vocal workouts that they've created on their phones or on the through the zoom if they're not in my area.

27:29 First is to do a deep breath workout, and I have multitudes of those that and there are a ton available online. But something that grounds you, that combs your nervous system. I personally love because it's so fast. Do you want to try one right here? Do you want to get it? And people might already know this, but I like taking the left hand, put that on the heart, and then take your other hand and put that right right on your stomach, just above your belly button. And then as you breathe, so we're connecting the mental brain to the physical body through breath. And the idea here is to inhale through your nose or your mouth, not up into the lungs. You know, inhaling your shoulders up to your ears. If you're watching this, this is not what we are doing.

28:25 Friends, you want to keep those shoulders relaxed. In fact, as you breathe, you don't want those shoulders to move at all. You want to inhale through the nose or mouth, past the lungs, down into that solar plexus muscle where your hand is sitting on your stomach there, moving the hand forward as you inhale and then as you exhale, that hand should move toward your spine, so the shoulders aren't moving at all. So as let's try that again. Let's breathe through the nose or mouth down into the solar plexus, moving that hand on the stomach forward with the inhale, and then as you exhale, the hand should go towards the spine. So you're emptying that solar plexus muscle connected to the diaphragm. You're contracting that muscle. And this is something you can see how fast that is. I suggest that you take ten breath. This is something you can do in your car before you're going into a meeting, maybe that you're feeling anxious about, if you're getting on a stage. I have an additional little thing that I like to do, and that is just really to get the body in that excited state.

29:45 And this is a vocal swoop I call it. It's a very it's a very Anthony Robbins type thing. But you know, if you're in a place, in a situation where you would actually a visualize, right you would be standing up for this. You know a couple of jumping jacks, you know some push ups. You know, you know, everyone knows Anthony Robbins is whole thing. But I just to get energy moving in your body. It's very weird. It's going to feel a little bit loud. But you want to imagine that you are drawing air and energy up through the bottoms of your feet. You're drawing support from the planet, and you would draw that up through your feet, up through your legs, all the way up through your body. You would release that out the top of your head, and then you would come all the way back down landing on the planet. And it looks like are you ready. It's weird, it's loud, it's very silly, but it's been working for over twenty years, so I keep using it.

30:49 It's called a full range vocal swoop, and it sounds like this. Listen once, I'm gonna draw my breath. Oh you want to try it together? Sure, and it's meant to be really loud. I'm holding back a little bit here for the sake of all of our audio. Let's try it together. Nice big breath, drawing that air from your from the bottom of your feet. Here we go A yeah, yeah, it's it's tricky and we're sitting down. Uh, And and there's so much more on all of that. But so that's kind of a two part thing that I do.

31:45 First and foremost always to get yourself, your your your your mental state, your vocal state, your physical state prepared before presenting, before leading jumping on a podcast. Uh. Is that centered grounding breath to start, because that's letting your brain and your body know that you're okay, You're going to be all right. The lions aren't chasing us, We're not going to be okay man days. And then the second piece of that, if you need to get yourself fired up and and and increase your energy level, uh is the full range swoop with some Anthony Robbins, some push ups and some exercise jumping checks. Yeah, definitely, I'll have to listen to this podcast again and then do it because I didn't want to great a discord in people's years.

32:43 So I think, thank you for sharing that. You're so welcome. There's so oh my goodness, the exercises and things I've created on the fly. Uh. One I just created last week. Although there's so many things that you know, you create out of this right, so many stories, too many stories to share in this short time. But just this week, I have a woman she's actually she's actually a property manager, so she's she's kind of on her own and she's got you know, she's married with a couple of kids in college, and she came to me originally her her boys play baseball at the junior college here, and so she wanted to sing the national anthem for you know, at the beginning of the game, before they throw the first pitch out. In addition, she's been asked to This is total different purpose for using the voice. She has been asked to audition for a band, and it's an all male band. They're just like a garage.

33:43 They do some fun parties and things. But she's the only female and she's never done any of this before. So an exercise created again out of necessity, is I kept noticing her shoulders kept creeping up. And what happens when our shoulders creep up, especially we're singing something like the national anthem. It's a big song, very athletic. When we start creeping those shoulders up, we are disconnecting from the solar plexus, where your support comes from. We need air to move through the vocal chords to cause them to vibrate to create the sound that we hear that comes out of your voice. So I just I happen to have these hand weights that sit by my door. They look beautiful by my door. I finally found a use for them. I've not been using them, so I grabbed the five pound weights put them in her hands. Those automatically kept her shoulders down, which helped her to focus on that breath from the solar plexus, which helped her to support when she got to those big notes for the anthem at the end of that song.

34:57 To be able to support and sing those big notes with clarity, with confidence on key in the right note, and to sustain and be able to hold those notes to the end. So that's just a silly little thing. I was like, you know, I was like standing behind her, and I was putting my hands on her shoulders and pushing her shoulders down, like wait a minute, let's try this. So my clients frequently there's all kinds of silly things that I've created as a result of not knowing. You know, what I've been doing already wasn't working. It's like, okay, so I'm I've been blessed and creative and innovative enough to be able to think, well, that's not working. What is something else we can try to get the result that I'm looking for, to get the results the client is wanting, so powerful, so fun, so fun, so fun too, absolutely so Sloan. These are like a lot of good exercises, great tips. And I'm sure people are thinking, okay, and I find Sloan, how can I work with her? So give us all the details? Oh my goodness.

36:06 Well, first would be the website. Vocal Coaching by Sloan should get you there. The website is a wonderful resource. It has oh my goodness videos. My podcast is on there under resources find your Voice, Rock your Confidence. There are some free gifts under work with Sloan. There are a couple of audio files there, and the one that I really want to offer to the listeners is if you found you know, if mastering your voice to elevate your own confidence is something that interests you, please schedule a complimentary find your Voice breakthrough session with the link that we have in the show notes here that goes straight to my calendar. It is complimentary. It's a forty five minute session to answer some questions for you see if focal coaching is right for you. But the website is a great resource. Like I said, there's some free audio files there for the listener. But if you are serious and you have if you, the listener or the audience are struggling with any of the issues that DIVI and I have spoke of today, please go get on my calendar with the complimentary session and we'll get you squared away. And at the very least I can give you some direction and make some suggestions for how you might want to consider proceeding. Absolutely, and I want to circle back.

37:39 You had mentioned initially that you're working with people who have had medical challenges. Can you also share with us as to how do you do that? And how somebody is experiencing any medical or health issues, how can they come to you? Because having good help is so important. Good health wellness is probably my number one core value over over anything Without our health, you know, freedom, I would say, is my number one you know freedom, financial freedom. But if if we don't have our health, you know we're not free. So absolutely, uh Well, I work with people uh one on one primarily always to start uh I do work online with clients as far oh my goodness, as far as Australia and uh, you know, London, you know, all all over the world at this point. But if you are having a medical challenge, you know, the first thing would be again to meet for that initial session to talk more about you know what, what are the issues that you're having, and then I just break it down and more often than not, it is usually the breathing is really a key to uh unlocking, unfolding what is going on in the rest of the body

39:12 of One more story here. So I mentioned that I was very sick as a child. Uh. I had my first asthma attack at six months old, and I was hospitalized every year right around December, my birthday with upper respiratory issues. I didn't I never just got a cold. I would get a cold that would turn into bronchitis that would then turn into pneumonia and I was in the hospital. Back then, you know, they didn't they didn't have the oxygen machines like they have now. You were I lived in an oxygen tent. I was like the bubble girl. And what happened is probably around elementary school. I want to say, maybe you know third fourth grade, I literally taught myself how to stop an asthma attack. I was heavily medicated always, so what they do they probably still do, is if you're having an attack and can't breathe, they shoot you up with steroids and pregnozone was in my system, a lot pills shots. It would make me very anxious. I'd be shaking all the time, and I couldn't stand the medicine.

40:23 I couldn't sleep, I couldn't communicate, and so I literally had no idea. Again, it's part of my why I do the work that I do. I truly believe, Davia that I healed myself with the breath work as a vocal coach my own health issues. I have never been as healthy as I am today. I'm not on any medication. Vitamin see that's all I take, and lots of water, but I'm not on any medicine. I don't have any of the issues that I used to, allergies, skin stuff. So I do believe the work, any work with your voice UH is very healing. The breath work, the body work, the connecting the mental work to the body visualization. I know sometimes it seems silly, and I know for a long time, you know, I didn't believe in any of that stuff, but you know, fast forward, I'm looking at my life, I'm looking at the clients that I help, and I'm I'm connecting the dots and realizing, wait a minute, this work is really powerful.

41:37 It's why I'm still doing this. It's what basically what we're hearing is that, like you, you can do breath work and you can increase or elevate your well being and that can definitely help you. So thank you for sharing that. And as we wrap up our show, I want to thank you and do you have any very quick parting words for our audience. Well, you know, if you're on the fence and you're not sure about any of this, but you have questions. Again, I want to encourage you get on my calendar so we can have a conversation. I do love. I did bring a quote as a close for myself. This is from Thomas Edison.

42:28 If we all did the things we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves. We are so capable of doing amazing things that we never even imagine, things that seem so far fetched and out there. I believe, because of my own life that anything is possible. Anything. I love that. What a beautiful way to close the show. So listeners, any thing is possible. So thank you, Sloan. Really appreciate you, and thank you listeners for being part of our show because you are so vocal and I appreciate your trust. I appreciate you reaching out to me and always sharing your thoughts. So if there's any other way we can serve you support you, please let us know. And I want to share something very exciting.
