"After 20 years of broadcasting, often in noisy settings, my voice started to wear out. The 7 minute warm-up helped release my tension, especially in my neck and shoulders. Lynda also immediately helped me identify the bad habits I’d developed and provided effective, time efficient solutions. Lynda’s passion for helping people improve their speaking is apparent, and her expertise unquestioned. Everyone from Fran Drescher to James Earl Jones could benefit from Lynda’s speech tips."

"Hi Lynda,
I have become so much more conscious of Ummmm's. I came home and made a 4 minute video and didn't Umm once. Thank you so much for that. And thanks for the information as well

Your feedback was extremely useful. I liked your initial brief snapshot of your assessment of the many different aspects of my voice. This gave me a quick overview of my vocal strengths and weaknesses. Your deeper and more targeted feedback in the paragraph that followed then gave me a deeper understanding of some of my vocal challenges and some specific action steps I can take to start to overcome them. Your "expressiveness" handout was also a wonderful training aid to help me develop my ability to be even more expressive. You are a very skilled and capable vocal coach."

"Your training did wonders for me! I no longer worry about the way I sound over the phone. Before your coaching I had tried to make changes on my own by reading voice books and listening to CDs. They were valuable but they didn't help me achieve my new style of speaking in conversation! Your plan to systematically take the extra step so that my skills transfer into every day speech was the absolute best! Thank you!"

"Lynda,
I just did the vocal warm up exercises – they are incredible! I always have neck and jaw pain and for the first time in 2 years, I don’t! I will be using these exercises daily – thank you! Really, these are wonderful exercises and your voice is so soothing, as is the music."

"Hi Lynda,
Thanks again for all of your help with my pet bereavement CD!! Everything helped, but the reworking of the second affirmation was a huge problem solved. Everyone loves that section, both the new emphasis of the repetition and saying it sooner. Your coaching me to move from the "reading" sound to a natural conversation sound was also incredibly useful."

"During Lynda's interesting and informative presentation to the Bayer Women's Group WINGs, she walked us through the five vocal issues that women in particular need to pay attention to in their verbal communications. She raised our awareness of the 'spoken image' and passed along valuable tips for increasing credibility when speaking in professional settings."
