Voice Coach: Donald Woodburn - Breaking Free from Self-Censorship & Finding Your True Voice

What if the voice you use every day isn’t really yours? Today I’m joined by Donald Woodburn, renowned voice coach and performer, to uncover the hidden forces shaping how we speak, connect, and show up in the world. We break down why most people never access their true voice, how culture and upbringing shape our self-expression, and the surprising power of breath, body, and emotion in communication. Donald shares stories from his own journey, moments of raw authenticity, the impact of class and culture, and why reclaiming your voice is about so much more than just talking. Expect practical tools to find your real voice, insights on overcoming self-censorship, and a deep dive into the psychology of being heard. Whether you’re an actor, therapist, or just want to show up more fully in life, this episode will challenge what you think you know about yourself.   Find Donald on Instagram @theantivoicecoach    For therapeutic work with Bevan www.theembodiedmind.com.au
