Advice from Nonbinary People About Voice and Gender (Part 1)
Apr 23, 2024The journey of self-discovery often involves exploring the essence of who we are through various aspects of our identity. One of the most powerful mediums through which we express ourselves is our voice. That's why I'm thrilled to announce my latest course, Mix & Match: Designing Your Nonbinary Voice, launching on May 1st.
As part of the preparations for this course, I had conversations with 14 incredible nonbinary individuals who have shared their experiences and insights to help others navigate this personal journey.
The Power of Individuality in Voice
Kacee, one of the participants, shared a piece of advice that resonated deeply with me. They emphasized the importance of not conforming to someone else's expectations or examples. "You know, we're all individuals. We all have our own voices," Kacee noted. It's crucial to find joy in the little wins and to focus on your own experiences rather than constantly comparing yourself to others.
Discover the Unexpected
Blu's thoughts about the potential of voice training struck a chord as well. They pointed out how voice training and breathwork can unlock capabilities in your voice that you might not have realized were possible. Spending just 15 or 20 minutes on an exercise can lead to surprising results, helping you sound in ways you never expected.
Explore and Express
Sergio encouraged everyone to explore. "Explore what you can say, explore what you can express," they advised. This exploration isn't just about finding your voice but also about using it as a manifestation of your true self, in whatever form that may be.
Experimentation and Fun
Maartje highlighted the fun in experimentation. They shared how intriguing it is to try different vocal expressions and see how they align with your inner identity.
