Today, let's talk about voice. Voice is an expression. It's a form of communication. It's a seed for creation. It's a manifestation of confidence. Voice can also be power – because each one of us has a voice that can change the world.

All of us have unique and very important stories to share. And sharing our stories allows us to connect with others so we can experience joy and free ourselves from any pain or shame we're carrying by keeping our secrets to ourselves.

Now is the time to let our voices be heard and use your voice to create the change you want to create in this world.

Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation:

• How voices come in different sizes, shapes, and forms
• It takes practice to use your voice and train those muscles.
• Encouraging other people to voice out their messages

Episode Highlights:

How Our Voices Come in Different Forms

Our voices don't all sound alike. All of our differences can create a stronger quilt when we can encourage others to step up, put their courage capes on, and express themselves in any way they wish to. It's not only through speaking that we can voice out our message. It may be through a cello or through a paintbrush, or a guitar.

It Takes Practice

But staying quiet does nothing to build up our confidence, nor does letting others speak for us. It doesn't help us train those muscles. And in order to do that, you need to practice. Sometimes, you may not even know what your voice sounds like or what your voice could possibly do for others.

Pass It Forward

Now, if you have already found your voice, it's just as important to be able to give encouragement to others so they, too, can find their voices and share their message.

Reach out to someone who needs the courage to use their voice today. Whether that’s a quick text message, a short email, a tweet, or a DM, you’ll never know how much the phrase “I got you” could mean to them.
