Vocal Awareness

One of the questions I am frequently asked during interviews or during my masterclasses is: “How do you find your Inborn Voice?” No one can answer this type of question because the answer is not made up of words, but of direct, first-hand experience. Perhaps to help you understand my “answer,” it may be useful to draw a simple but effective parallel between vocal and olfactory imprints. After all, our identity is defined by both (along with our visual imprint, of course).

More and more often I meet people who have an incurable desire to help others and are themselves looking for help. In the ancient tradition there are many parables that tell of this paradox. I really like to adapt to the modern era the one that tells of a father who on returning home smells smoke. Thanks to the subtle, pungent smell he immediately understands the danger of a fire. Inside the house were his children intent on playing, completely absorbed in their imaginary world, who had not noticed anything and were smiling at the screen of their devices.

Mylena Vocal Coach has been personally involved for years in the development of advanced speech technologies, including artificial intelligence projects that seek to emulate the nuances of human communication. Her 30 years of experience allows her to closely observe the advances in these technologies, but also to recognize their limitations. If one treats voice as a mere piece of numerical data to be processed, something is lost. Indeed, one risks losing the very thing that makes every conversation authentic: the emotional vibration, the intention and that unique resonance that only a human being can perceive and return.
