    Why Singers Still Struggle — Even With Good Technique | with Licensed Hypnotherapist Katie Crooks

    If you’ve ever felt like you know what to do technically — you have the skills, the talent, the exercises — and yet something still feels blocked when you sing… this episode is for you. In this episode of Vocal Tips in 10, Amber Mogg Cathey sits down with licensed hypnotherapist Katie Crooks to explore the connection between the mind, nervous system, emotions, and the voice — and why technique alone isn’t always enough to unlock the voice and artistry you’re capable of. Katie shares how decades of working with singers and speakers eventually led her into hypnotherapy and subconscious work, helping performers move through fear, perfectionism, emotional holding patterns, performance anxiety, and nervous system responses that can directly affect vocal freedom and expression. This conversation explores: • performance anxiety + the nervous system • emotional blocks in singing • subconscious patterns that affect performance • why some singers still feel stuck even with good technique • creating more safety, confidence, freedom, and connection in your voice And this is just Part 1. Next week, Katie actually guides Amber through a Vocal Reset Hypnosis session that listeners can come back to over and over again as part of their own vocal practice and performance preparation. 🎁 Free support - The Stardom Series 🗣️Katie's Ignite Your Voice Masterclass Ready to train with the why built into every workout?

    What's Missing from Your Vocal Exercises?

    If you don't know why an exercise works — what it's actually doing in your voice — you're practicing in the dark. In this episode, vocal coach and certified vocal rehabilitation specialist Amber Mogg Cathey breaks down the single most transformative shift she sees in singers: the moment they stop just doing exercises and start understanding them. She shares a real story of a seasoned singer whose confidence and control completely changed once he understood the purpose behind his training — and why that understanding matters whether you're a beginner or a working professional. You'll learn: Why most vocal training leaves singers dependent on their teacher instead of their own instrumentHow understanding the why lets you troubleshoot your voice in real timeThe science behind exercises like lip trills and what they're actually doing for your vocal foldsHow to start building a real vocal toolbox Ready to train with the why built into every workout?

    Your Voice Was Never the Problem

    Most singers believe their voice is the problem. It’s not. In this episode of Vocal Tips in 10, Amber Mogg Cathey breaks down one of the most common patterns she sees in singers and voice-led artists: feeling stuck, strained, or limited—not because of their voice, but because of the training, messaging, and beliefs they’ve absorbed along the way. Many artists assume their voice “can’t” do certain things—whether it’s high notes, mix, power, or consistency. But in most cases, the issue isn’t ability. It’s a mismatch between the voice and the tools they’ve been given. Amber unpacks: The limiting beliefs that quietly shape how singers use their voiceHow outdated or rigid training can actually hold vocal progress backWhy “your voice just can’t do that” is rarely trueWhat singers actually need to build a voice that feels strong, free, and reliable This episode goes beyond technique. It’s about reframing the relationship singers have with their voice—so they can stop second-guessing and start trusting what’s possible. Your voice isn’t broken. You just haven’t been given the right support yet. If you want more support like this—exercises, structure, and coaching—check out The Voice Gym and The Vocal Pro Collective. And if this episode hit home, share it with another singer who needs to hear it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    My Go-To Exercises When Your Voice Feels Off

    If your voice feels off—scratchy, swollen, stuck, or just not doing what you want—this episode is for you. Allergy season, post-nasal drip, congestion, travel, fatigue… it happens. And when it does, most singers either push through (not helpful) or stop singing altogether (also not helpful). In this episode of Vocal Tips in 10, I’m walking you through a simple, strategic sequence of exercises to help your voice reset and start feeling like you again—without forcing or overworking. We’ll work through: A gentle SOVT “HN” exercise on one note to ease the voice back inStraw in water with sliding intervals to help reduce swelling and irritationA “floppy jaw” release to reduce tension in the articulators (because your body will try to tighten up when you’re not at 100%)An “NG” exercise to reconnect resonance and smooth out your registers This is the kind of reset I use with singers when their voice isn’t cooperating—so instead of guessing (or spiraling), you have a clear way forward. Stop guessing. Start training. 🎤 Voice Gym → https://www.ambermoggcathey.com/voice-gym 🎤 Vocal Pro Collective →https://www.ambermoggcathey.com/collective Watch this episode on YouTube Hosted on Acast.

    If It Only Works One Way… It’s Not Actually Working

    If you’ve ever felt like you’re searching for the right way to sing… this episode is your permission to stop. Because here’s the truth: there isn’t just one. In this episode, I’m breaking down why great singers don’t rely on one perfect technique—they build options. Your voice isn’t a formula, it’s a skill. And the more ways you can access ease, power, and consistency, the more reliable your voice becomes in real-world situations. We’ll talk about: Why chasing “the right way” can actually hold you backHow to start experimenting in your practice (without feeling lost)What it really means to build a strong, adaptable voice If something only works one way… it’s probably not as solid as you think. Your job isn’t to be perfect—it’s to explore, adjust, and build a voice that works for you. And if you’re ready for more structure in that process… inside the Vocal Pro Collective, you get live coaching, expert workshops, and a full training ecosystem to support your voice every step of the way: https://www.ambermoggcathey.com/collective If you’re looking for something more self-paced, the Voice Gym gives you 150+ guided exercises and weekly workouts so you always know exactly what to practice: https://www.ambermoggcathey.com/voice-gym And if you just want to get started today, grab my free sing-along warm-up—it's the perfect place to begin: Get a Free Sing Along Warm-Up + Belt Exercise Hosted on Acast.

    Why Your Vocal Practice Isn’t Working (And How to Fix It)

    Why Your Vocal Practice Isn’t Working (And How to Fix It) If your vocal practice isn’t translating into real progress… this episode is for you. Most singers think they need to do more—more exercises, more songs, more time. But the real problem? You’re trying to work on too many things at once. In this episode, I break down why that approach keeps you stuck—and what actually works instead. You’ll learn how to focus your practice so your voice can actually improve, not just stay busy. We cover: • The biggest mistake singers make in practice (and why it slows your progress) • How to choose one clear focus that moves your voice forward • A simple way to break songs into manageable, effective chunks • Why slow, intentional repetition works (and mindless run-throughs don’t) • How to build real technique first—then layer in style without losing control This isn’t about working harder—it’s about working smarter so you can see (and hear) real results. If you’ve been feeling stuck, frustrated, or like your practice isn’t paying off… this will change how you train your voice.
