The Inner Singer Podcast

The Inner Singer Podcast is dedicated to assisting you in developing your inner singer which is your conscious and unconscious beliefs and programming, patterns, stories, habits, mindset and self-talk. In these podcasts you will discover tools and techniques that you can use immediately to strengthen and support your inner singer which will ultimately have a powerful positive affect on your outer singer - your voice. Your inner singer - conscious and unconscious beliefs and programming, patterns, stories, habits, mindset and self-talk are what will determine your feelings about your voice and your perception of your voice. It is this that ultimately drives and runs our voice and our confidence in our singing, and is responsible for our vocal success. If our inner singer is not congruent with our outer singer, as well as what we want (our singing goals), there is little chance of realizing our singing potential. The Inner Singer Podcast is for singers who want to gain confidence, discover the joy of their own voice, and improve all aspects of their singing and performing. This includes shifting from a negative mindset to an optimistic and positive supportive mindset.

Episode 19 - Is Your Style Really Style? 0
Aug 31, 2015

Is your singing style really authentic style? Or does it mean something else?

For many, what they call style is really a manipulation they've developed to help them get the notes! I've done it. (-:

To them, it's an identity that is tied up in their vocal technique which gets enmeshed and and becomes dysfunctional.

Technique and style need to function separately and freely so that the synergy of the 2 create a wonderful experience for singer and audience.

This is a very overlooked, yet important topic that I dive deep into.

Enjoy and please share if you like it.

Thanks!!

Episode 18 - Your "Backstage" is Not Your "Onstage" 0
Aug 24, 2015

I think we all do this - compare our "backstage" with someone elses "onstage".

Meaning, looking at someone who is showing their absolute best, whether in a show or a recording, this person is putting his/her best foot forward and we are only seeing and hearing what he/she wants us to see and hear.

We are not seeing all the work that has been done to get "onstage" and we have no idea what this person has gone through to get onstage.

So why do most of us compare what we do in our rehearsals, studios, homes, karaoke etc. to someone who has been very calculating regarding what he/she lets us see or hear?

In this Episode of The Inner Singer Podcast I discuss the 2 meanings of "backstage" and "onstage" and how understanding this can propel you forward with your singing!

Episode 17 - Why Setting Singing Goals May Backfire 0
Aug 15, 2015

In this Episode I discuss the potential negative impact of setting singing goals from the wrong place.

Consider this quote from Einstein:

"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them."

That should give you a hint.
 
My experience was setting goals (actually almost unconsciously) based on wanting to sing like the wrong singers which was based on my old beliefs, wiring and programming.
 
I was actually trying to be something that I'm not and trying to match 2 of the most incredible opera singers that ever walked the planet.
 
Enough said. (-:
 
Please listen and enjoy.
 
There are some important ideas in this one!
Episode 16 - Do You Practice or Play? 0
Aug 10, 2015

Do you practice or play at your singing?

As you'll discover in this episode there is a distinct difference between the two.

Research shows that being in a playful, joyful attitude and brain state is much more conducive to learning and making fast progress.

The old "No pain no gain" when it comes to the mental game is very outdated!

Is singing or "practicing" on your "I have to do it" list, or on your "I get to do it" list?

I have a lot of experience with both, and the "I get to do it" is much more productive and expedites your progress!

Listen and enjoy. (-:

Episode 15 - Do You Need To Be Motivated To Sing or Practice? 0
Aug 4, 2015

In this Episode I discuss the huge difference between Motivation and Inspiration.

They may not seem different, but they are totally different!

Motivation comes from the head. Inspiration comes from the heart (and deeper).

Do you need to be motivated to sing or practice as much as you'd like to?

Usually we need motivation to do things we Don't like to do.

Do you know the extreme difference between the two?

You'll take away some key inspirations that will get you back to the love and joy of singing - no matter your level. (-:

Enjoy!
