      Anne Shirley Eric Elizabeth, Thank you, and thank you to everyone else who contributed to the success of our first Vocal Awareness Bridge program. As I said at the close of the event, it is my privilege – I say this because it is the truth, your integrity and your passion raises the bar for all of us. Thank you, Everyone.

      Changing the world starts with my total willingness to change myself. Doing so through voice, gives such immediate experiences of well-being and energy, it becomes self rewarding as I go along. Yes I'm ready!

       What a joy to see my friend Cindy Burnham embodying who she is—a woman of stature, grace and intelligence. Not presenting—simply Being. One can discern this from her relaxed, natural state. Cynthia is truly an example of one of the key principles of Vocal Awareness —Integrity/Integration—meaning wholeness!

    Step 4. Now you are ready to write your Persona Statement.
    Take your answer to Question 2 as a starting point and replace the phrase “I want to be perceived as” to “I am”. Notice if it feels appropriate to change any of the other words.

    A...s part of our Voice Is Power (VIP) Club this month we are focusing on "Creating Your Persona Statement"

    This is your new Persona Statement.

    Create a visually compelling version of your new Persona Statement and post it somewhere you will see it often. Speak it out loud to yourself daily. Memorize it. Allow it to grow and change as you grow and change. Don’t just go through the motions, consciously take ownership. Come back to this exercise and do it again in a week and in a month. How we perceive ourselves and our situation drastically affects our results and our well-being. Vocal Awareness teaches that everything in life revolves around two things: to choose to do something or to choose not to something. Choosing to write a Persona Statement and choosing to embody it will change your life. Embrace your transformation from someone who didn’t realize they had a choice into someone with infinite possibilities.    See More

    Step 3. Now draw two pictures to represent each of your two Personas.

    As part of our Voice Is Power (VIP) Club this month we are focusing on "Creating Your Persona Statement"

    The first drawing will represent how you believe you currently ...are perceived. The second one will represent how you want to be perceived. You can use color or black and white, stick figures, abstract, realistic, or lifelike, simple or complex. Feel free to substitute different mediums like clay or collage. Don’t worry about your talents as an artist; these pictures are for your personal use. Allow your creative unconscious the freedom to play without judgment. You may be surprised by what you discover.

    What do you observe about your two different pictures? Is one picture more dramatic, colorful, or vibrant? Did something about your pictures surprise you? Consider what you have discovered.    See More

      • Jaym Mc I recently did this and it was a fun and insightful exercise - it made it easier to clarify my current persona statement. I'll share pictures when I go back home in a week and a half.

    Step 2: How would I like to be perceived?

    As part of our Voice Is Power (VIP) Club this month we are focusing on "Creating Your Persona Statement"

    Keep in mind that this is your intrinsic identity, not just your identity at work or in you...r social life. This is how you want to be known by everybody - all the time.

    Now write a first draft of your new persona statement. (Please use complete sentences, even a paragraph, not a list of bulleted points). Include positive concepts only. Below are a few examples, and of course, you will create your own unique statement.

    EXAMPLES:
    “I want to be perceived as a spectacular performing artist who bravely tackles important subjects, using my emotional depth and understanding to elicit compassion and a shift in perspective.”

    “I want to be perceived as secure, successful, and confident—a strong leader.”

    “I want to be perceived as warm and approachable, an inspiring and courageous teacher, who empowers people to live extraordinary lives.”    See More

    STEP 1: How do I believe I am presently perceived?

    As part of our Voice Is Power (VIP) Club this month we are focusing on "Creating Your Persona Statement"

    The secret of Vocal Power is taking charge of how we are perceived—not only by oth...ers, but by ourselves. The way we think or feel about anything we do literally changes the way it is. Let's begin with this First Step: How do I believe I am presently perceived? Consider the question from many perspectives. Write down your first impressions.
