How to Claim Your Voice (PART 2) What to Expect in Your First Voice Lesson: Why the Weird Sounds Actually Work

from Singer's PATH Podcast · host Sarah Bishop

In Part 2 of Claim Your Voice, Sarah walks through what actually happens in a voice lesson — especially if you’ve never taken one before. She explains why the exercises can feel strange, vulnerable, or even embarrassing, and how to prepare your nervous system so you don’t quit too soon. You’ll learn why “weird” sounds like lip trills, bratty tones, and hooty head voice are foundational tools, not random noises. This episode demystifies the process so you can step into training with confidence instead of fear.If you’ve ever been told you’re “pitchy” or felt embarrassed singing because you’re not sure you’re hitting the right notes, this is for you.
