a softer way to sing 🪽

Over the past few days, nearly 90 of you have taken my Voice Self-Assessment Quiz, and reading your reflections has been incredible!

One of the biggest themes I noticed was that many people feel much less supported in the Instrument and Human domains of singing compared to the Musician domain. And only one person said they feel confident addressing something in their voice when they notice it 🥲

I wanted to make something in response to that.

So here’s a gentle 20-minute voice awareness practice.
It’s something you can use to build body awareness, soften your mindset, and reconnect with your voice without pressure or judgment. There’s stretching, grounding your nervous system, humming, and an exploration of the phrase “this is my voice,” which is a simple but powerful way to notice how your body and your mind respond to sound.

The Three Domains of Singing

Back in music school, every time I took a singing exam I’d get nervous, sing my heart out… and then get a “meh” score with a little note like “needs more breath support.”
For years, those comments made me feel like I was a mediocre singer.
Still untangling some of that to this day 😅

A few years ago I started asking myself:

What does it even mean to be a “good” singer?
Is there a clearer, kinder way to understand the craft?

That question led me to explore a framework for breaking singing into separate, modular skills, so singers can work on one thing at a time, feel less overwhelmed, and have a clearer path to growth.

Today, I’m finally sharing the first public draft of this idea:
The 3 Domains of Singing 🎙️ 🎶 🌿

🎥 I made a video about it, check it out on YouTube!

While I was working on this, I found a survey platform called Tally, and totally nerded-out making a self-assessment quiz for your voice ✨
It’s kind of like a personality quiz (cuz who doesn’t love a good personality quiz!!!!???), but focused on helping you understand your strengths as a singer, and where you can support your voice more intentionally.
