…but they might change your life, for the better.
Join Amanda Perrot as she wastes no time diving deep into voice: our inner voice and our outer expression of that voice.
Through storytelling, practical tips, and exposure to large amounts of swearing, these quick episodes will allow you to develop a healthier relationship with YOUR voice.
What does your inner voice tell you on the daily? Does it stop you, ALL THE F*CKING TIME? Let’s navigate that together (you are not alone!) with acknowledgement, honesty, and the courage to change.
And on the flip side, do you express yourself regularly? Either in your day-to-day life or in your business? Or do you swallow what you actually want to say, for fear of being too much (or too little)?
Thank you for potentially wasting your time. OR thank you for diving in, and gaining more of you. We need more of you.

The Things That Stop Us: Being Harassed
In this longer episode, Amanda shares parts of her experience around being harassed over the last few years and 12 pieces of information she wishes she would have known while going through it. This episode is for people who are currently experiencing harassment or harassing communications, for people whose loved ones are experiencing these awful situations, or for caring people who simply want to learn more about harassment. Being harassed results in feeling unsafe on all levels; this lack of safety then results in our shutting down and our stopping our creative and entrepreneurial pursuits. The negative effects ripple out into our communities and the greater good; Amanda feels strongly that these effects need to be talked about so shame and fear can be released. While Amanda is not a mental health or legal professional, she shares bits of personal knowledge she’s gained over the years in the hopes that it will help someone experiencing this debilitating situation feel less alone.
*Trigger warning: harassment, harassing communications.
**Episode includes swearing.

The Things That Stop Us: Real Life
Raising littles. Working a full-time job. Losing a loved one. Being a caregiver.
Real life situations and experiences can knock our creative and entrepreneurial pursuits off track - for months, years, and even decades. In this episode, Amanda explores how unexpected external life circumstances can create immense “opportunities for personal growth” (AKA: sh*tshows) and how these situations often stop us from showing up in our businesses and creative pursuits. These circumstances aren’t bad - they’re simply real life. With three bits of wisdom she’s gained over the years, she reminds us that if we can be gentle with ourselves as we move through real life situations, our businesses will thank us for it in the long term. Then, we can trust that we will once again have the capacity to create and show up to serve our people with even more depth and wisdom.

The Things That Stop Us: Comparisonitis
Let’s take a look at the things that stop us from being heard as business owners and entrepreneurs. In this first (of three special-focus) episode, Amanda talks about being an identical twin and the decades-long experience of being deeply compared - on all levels - to another person. Touching on simple but formative examples, she looks at how external comparison often resulted in feeling “less than,” and how that caused her to shrink and second-guess herself over the years. She also speaks about social media and the self-doubt that arises after 7.2 minutes, and the evidence that is readily - and unfortunately - available to prove our limiting beliefs about ourselves. To conclude, she offers a few simple tips to face the effects of comparisonitis so we can show up and serve our people, clients, and communities.

Who runs the show?
As we dive more fully into our inner voice, Amanda shares about “parts work”... how parts of ourselves from the past influence our current thoughts and try to keep us safe. Talking about 13-year-old Amanda and then 3-year-old Amanda, she reflects on how these parts ran the show in her life for years… and how she was able to finally acknowledge them and move forward. Closing out with a hug and some serious awkwardness, Amanda reflects on how it’s okay to be all of you.

It’s short and sweet!
In this honest and self-reflective solo episode, Amanda looks at the history of her love/hate (mostly hate) relationship with her voice and why she uses it anyway. Think: stuttering when she hit puberty and fake singing in high school choir class.
Then she asks: what is YOUR relationship with your voice?
