Hear or Download this conversation with me about the voice
Recently I recorded a conversation between myself and a colleague, Robin Dickinson @robin_dickinson on Twitter for my CoffeeCast Conversations podcast. I thought I was going to interview Robin, but he ended up interviewing me instead… about my fascination and passion about voice, vocal authenticity, openness and trust. Robin graciously demonstrated his talent for encouraging and inviting me to share my love and fascination of all things voice, and our conversation travels far and wide touching upon numerous aspects of speaking and vocal communication.
I’ve uploaded this interview to The Vocal Branding Blog as well, as it is a great overview of some of the fundamental principles and ideas that are the foundations of Vocal Branding.
Running Time: 17 min 18 sec
“Enjoyed listening to @timnoonan hosting his #coffeecast -like the Real conversation in the moment. Nice segway from scripted or overtly planned” - Jenn Shallvey
This CoffeeCast interview was recorded at North Side Coffee Mornings #NSCM on 28 January 2010.
Themes touched upon in this interview include:
- Generosity when speaking, and sharing one’s joy through smiles;
- The huge role that vocal tone of voice unconsciously plays in our lives when assessing a person’s attitude toward us and to their message;
- The role of sound and vocal language in the womb and during infancy;
- An exploration into the human voice’s largely overlooked capacity to powerfully influence us;
- Gregorian Chant and Toning (the sounding of extended vowels) to adjust one’s mental and physical state, and for promoting empathy, health and life balance;
- We finished with a vocal ‘end of day’ ritual for reconnecting with your partner and loved-ones for restoring harmony and open communication.
Oh yes
and whenever you hear me say the word Ascending, please just pretend I’m saying Descending
