Coming in 2027
Where's My Voice? is a collection of raw conversations with professional singers who have experienced significant vocal challenges and are willing to talk about them.
I sit down with vocalists who have faced disorders such as vocal fold hemorrhage, nodules, cysts, paresis, vocal tremor, and muscle tension dysphonia. Others have encountered—or are still in the thick of—voice changes related to menopause, pregnancy, chemotherapy, gender transition, and aging. All of them have had to redefine their relationship with their voice, often rebuilding their technique and even reinventing their musical identity.
This podcast is for all singers. If you've ever wondered what it's like to go through a vocal upheaval, look no further. If you're weathering something yourself, this is the place for you. With each conversation, you'll feel more inspired and less alone in your own vocal journey.
Meet your host!
In early 2019, I suddenly found myself completely voiceless.
It wasn't the first time I'd wondered, "Where's my voice?" I'd already had plenty of suboptimal vocal experiences, the proverbial "bad voice days" when I was sick, tired, or out of alignment. It was, however, the first time I wasn't sure if I'd ever find my voice again.
But the impetus for this podcast wasn't my experience with vocal paresis. Rather, it was the community I fought to find throughout my recovery. In slowly opening up and sharing my own story, I got to hear others'. Together, we helped each other continue healing by destigmatizing the humanness of our voices and appreciating anew how they keep showing up for us.
The only constant is change. "Where's my voice?" is a question we'll ask ourselves over and over as we go through the many transitions of life. I can't wait to share these equally fascinating, heartbreaking, and hopeful conversations with you.
