116: Soft Voice, Big Power: Owning Your Voice with Vocal Honey’s Kimberly Lafort

You can be very visible and still feel completely unseen.In this episode of Simply Own It, I’m joined by voice guide and visibility coach Kimberly Laforte, creator of Vocal Honey. We go deep into what it really means to take up space with your voice — not just on a stage or a podcast, but at your kitchen table, in your relationships, and in your calendar.Kimberly shares her story of running an award-winning yoga studio while secretly relying on beta blockers just to speak, navigating a marriage where her spiritual self didn’t feel safe, and rebuilding her life (and last name) from the inside out. We talk about the moment she received the vision that became Vocal Honey, and how she shifted from chasing big stages to treating everyday conversations as the most important stage of all.Inside this episode, we explore:The difference between power over and power within—and how it changes who you attractWhy silence, pauses, and “not answering yet” can be wildly powerfulHow scarcity sneaks out of your mouth as filler words like “um, so, like”What it really looks like to say no from self-trust instead of guiltWhy your “soft” or “gentle” voice might actually be your greatest advantageHow healing your relationship with your voice shifts your relationships, business, and legacyIf you’ve ever replayed a conversation in your head, hated how you sounded, or told yourself you’re “not ready” to be more visible… this one will hit home in the most validating way.🎧 Tune in, then check the show notes to connect with Kimberly, explore Vocal Honey, and see how we can work together if you’re ready to build a life and business that actually sound like you.CONNECT WITH KIMBERLY:Follow Kimberly on InstagramFollow Vocal Honey in InstagramCONNECT WITH KELLY: Register for⁠ SOLD ⁠FREE: Own Who You Are Code #1 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Own Who You Are⁠⁠⁠Follow on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠LinkedIn
