This episode shares stories of being silenced—moments that teach us to hide, to shrink, to protect ourselves by closing off our voice. These experiences, both big and small, don't just live in our memories. They live in our bodies, literally shaping how we sound by affecting our breath, our throat, our entire vocal mechanism. We explore what happens when we separate from our sound and lose awareness of a tangible part of ourselves.
Through the metaphor of taking off a space suit in the cosmos, we're invited to explore what becomes possible when we stop filtering ourselves for the sake of belonging. Sound makes such a powerful starting point because it doesn't let us hide. And beneath those layers of protection, there's so much waiting to be discovered.
✨ Key Takeaways
- Small moments of being silenced stay with us and literally shape how we sound
- The body, voice, and emotions are inseparable—they function as one unified system
- Sound doesn't allow you to hide, which makes it a powerful place to begin discovering what's already there
