A speed date is a social event where several people go on a series of short, timed conversations with potential romantic partners. Participants usually sit across from each other in a specially designated room and have a few minutes to introduce themselves, ask questions, get to know each other, and possibly like each other. When the allotted time runs out, people switch tables and everything starts over with another person, continuing in this way until everyone else has met.
At the end of the event, participants will somehow name the people they would like to see again to the organizers and, if there is mutual interest, contact information are exchanged. Speed dating is a more efficient and structured way than “casual” or “social media” dating, but it has characteristics and difficulties that should not be left to chance.
BUSTO ARSIZIO – The country of the constitutional right to happiness has realized the dream of Milena Origgi from Busto: to have a permanent residence permit without expiration in the United States. She is the first woman in Lombardy to have obtained the American “Greencard Genius”, the green card reserved for people with abilities defined as extraordinary. Genius, indeed. Born in 1972, she is a vocal coach. She has been living in Boston for a few years. She created the Inborn Voice method, considered the best in the field of vocal training and awareness by managers, as well as being considered a valuable soft skill by the academic world, including Bocconi and Cattolica Universities in Milan.

And you know better than me that anyone will think better for themselves than for you.
As I have explained in my book “the way of the voice”, the speed at which our brain operates is not that fast. Is actually really slow. It takes time to make all those connections ties and do the “thinking”, but it takes also a lot of energy. If our brain is fed with an “idea” that seems fair enough, it skips all the work and “believes” in other people thinking. During every conversation, the one with more “voice” skills, has more time to think and to turn the “slower” part as they prefer.
If You Can’t Measure It, You Can’t Improve It. This sentence, which makes sense in a mathematical environment, has been applied everywhere, sometimes without too much consideration.
How can you measure something “intangible” like voice improvement? Let’s find out together!

Among the hundreds of emails I receive daily, lately I receive more and more from people who find it difficult to talk and be understood through a medical or surgical mask. Clearly if you use a gas mask, speech becomes even more complicated. Don’t be fooled by Hollywood movies, fiction is always far from reality.
