The InFluency Podcast Hadar Shemesh

This Friday is a bit different from what I normally post on the InFluency Podcast. In this episode, I have the absolute privilege of sharing with you something very special from my students, Vanessa Castillo and Soraya Carvajal, members of my Beyond Community.
Today, you will hear from Vanessa and Soraya, as Vanessa shares her journey of overcoming limiting beliefs, sharing awareness about her condition, symbrachydactyly, and celebrating differences.
April 1 is the beginning of International Limb Difference and Limb Loss Awareness Month. I am so happy to begin this month with this special episode.

What does it look like to transform from feeling insecure to feeling expressive and confident in English?
In today’s episode, I’m interviewing 6 of my New Sound students as they share their experience inside New Sound, and what has become possible for them during and after New Sound.
They’ll share what are the things that they needed to learn, and the things they needed to let go of to speak English powerfully, clearly and fluently.
They will also share the values of what New Sound is all about: speaking up, being heard, and using your English voice to change your life.
And mostly, when we build pronunciation confidence, we feel more free and fluent, and much more like ourselves when speaking.

New Sound is the ONLY program for speakers of English as a second language that focuses on EVERYTHING you really need to own your voice in English and find the freedom you deserve.
New Sound offers a holistic approach to teaching pronunciation and prosody that will help you overcome your limitations and find your unique, powerful voice.
I’ve integrated elements from my theater training (I bet you didn’t know I was once destined for Hollywood), including voice work, body language, speech analysis, and more, to help you feel more comfortable speaking English.
But the secret sauce? The stuff that really leads to true success? It starts with how you think and feel about speaking English.
In other words, this English fluency course is like no other.
So, if you’re ready to:
Have a confident command of your English
Become successful, powerful, and happy with your voice, no matter what comes up in conversation;
Master the English-speaking mindset,
and change the circumstances in your life (and the lives of the people around you)
…then, I would be honored to show you what’s waiting for you inside New Sound.
