    38 | Permission to Sing: How to Nurture Your Desire to Make Music

    There’s a seed within you that was planted long ago and is only awaiting your activation in order to crack open, rise up, reach for the light, open and blossom.  And that seed is your desire to sing, to make music, to use your creativity and your voice as an instrument to express what’s in your heart.    But it’s all too common to allow that seed to go dormant, burying it deep, fearful of what may happen if we begin to acknowledge it and water it and allow it to grow roots in us.     I’ve heard from so many people just like you throughout the years who have expressed their sadness in realizing how much they have denied themselves permission to follow their passion and have suppressed their desire to sing.     Today, I want to help you eliminate this denial and take that pivotal step of giving yourself the permission to sing.  By making this simple yet essential decision to nurture your voice, you allow the natural growth process to unfold ~ so that you can move forward in giving that seed everything it needs to thrive.   May this episode help your voice to grow and flourish with ease!   3 Lainey   Mention: Who Sang the First Song?

    37 | Does Your Dream of Singing Feel Too Far Out of Reach? Here’s the Truth.

    Big creative dreams can sometimes feel out of reach… unrealistic even… and so we often stop ourselves before we start.  Or we start and stop and start and stop as we cycle through overwhelm, fear, and doubt.     But those dreams are planted inside of you for a reason ~ they are yours to nurture and cultivate and bring to life!   That’s why I want to devote this episode to dispelling a few common blocks or limiting beliefs that too often keep gifted, passionate, creative women like you from really pursuing the dream to sing and make music and make a difference with your voice.     By shining a light on the truth about each of these perceived obstacles, I hope to offer you encouragement and inspiration to say YES to the creative vision you see inside of you.  It’s time to stop denying yourself the permission to follow your heart and pursue your passion for singing & making music, and to start living a life where your creativity gets to have a voice ~ fully expressed.   3 Lainey   Next Steps: Watch the Free Workshop: reawakenyourvoice.com/workshop Visit the Website: reawakenyourvoice.com Email Us: support@reawakenyourvoice.com  Work with Lainey: reawakenyourvoice.com/coaching

    36 | The Vocal Artist's Path & The Beginner's Mind: 5 Tips to Start Where You Are

    Often as we enter a new year, we’re thinking about what we want to create... what goals, dreams, and aspirations we want to focus on or work towards this year.  There’s something about the calendar turning over that gets us dreaming again…    But too often, these new creative projects and goals can be derailed by perfectionism.  And so we stop before we even begin… or we start and then beat ourselves up for not being perfect from the get-go.     That’s why it’s so important to approach these new beginnings with a healthy mindset ~ this is where the concept of the Beginner’s Mind comes into play…   Is there something you want to start, or begin again, or learn anew, a new path, a pivot, a shift, a different way of doing things that is calling you, but you feel like you should be further along?  Like you should know that by now?  If you’re struggling to allow yourself to start messy, or want to learn something new, and do it with a fresh perspective, less pressure, more freedom ~ I have 5 tips to help you start with a Beginner’s Mind.   This is the beginning of something beautiful.    So just start.  Meet yourself where you are and begin.   Here are 5 tips to help you do just that.   3 Lainey   P.S. I want to hear from you! What questions do you have? What are you loving on the podcast? What do you want more of?

    34 | Why Making Time for Your Creativity Isn't Selfish, but ESSENTIAL to Your Holistic Well-Being

    One of the greatest gifts you can give yourself is time with your art to nurture your creativity.   And yet, so many of us struggle to give ourselves that gift.   We think it’s selfish.   There’s always something else we think we should be doing instead…   But if we want to live a creative life… to be the artist we were designed to be, to use the gifts we’ve been given to serve others, we must be willing to pour into ourselves, the same way we so willingly pour into others.   So today’s episode is dedicated to the mission of encouraging you to release the guilt of setting aside time for your own creativity and to give yourself permission to receive that gift.     I hope it will leave you feeling inspired to set aside some time during this very sacred season to nurture your creativity and spend some quality time with your art ~ your music, your voice, the song in your heart.     And as we move into the new year, I pray this time will be fruitful for you and will yield a renewed vision for what you’d like to do with this beautiful gift of creativity that you have at your fingertips… on the tip of your tongue… just waiting to be given a voice.   3 Lainey   Next Steps:   Work with Lainey: reawakenyourvoice.com/coaching Watch the Free Workshop: reawakenyourvoice.com/workshop Visit the Website: reawakenyourvoice.com Email Us: support@reawakenyourvoice.com

    33 | Shut Down Your Voice? How to Open it Up Again with This ONE Simple Singing Practice

    In this episode of Reawaken Your Voice, I’ll be walking you through a 3-step singing exercise that will help you not only open your singing voice, improve your tone quality, and create more resonance in your sound, but will also help you get more comfortable with being vulnerable… allowing yourself to be seen and heard ~ which is essential if you want to sing with feeling and share your voice with others.   So yes, we’ll be touching on vocal technique and getting into some practical, actionable tools to bring into your next practice session, but it really goes so much deeper than that.  This is a practice in awareness and a practice in vulnerability.  Because as you open your singing voice, you’re opening your heart, and opening your capacity to share what’s inside with others.     So if you feel like you’ve closed off your voice, or your sound feels trapped inside of you and you’re wanting to open it back up again, tune in for step-by-step guidance to do just that.   3 Lainey   Next Steps:   Book a Free Discovery Call: reawakenyourvoice.com/discovery Work with Lainey: reawakenyourvoice.com/coaching Watch the Free Workshop: reawakenyourvoice.com/workshop Visit the Website: reawakenyourvoice.com Email Us: support@reawakenyourvoice.com

    32 | Harsh Inner Critic? 3 Creative Ways to Find Relief as a Singer

    Aaaah, yes.  The inner critic.  The enemy of artists everywhere, throughout all of time.     As singers, it can stop us in our tracks and leave us feeling like our voice isn’t worth listening to.  So we shut it down, bury it in silence, and try to forget about our deep longing to sing.  If we give it power and believe the lies it spews, we may even give up singing altogether.  I know because I got really close to that, myself.  I don’t want that for you.     That’s why in today’s episode, I’m sharing with you 3 creative ways to release the inner critic ~ so you can find freedom from the negative self-talk as a singer and vocal artist… and keep singing that song in your heart.     I pray this blesses you and helps you find relief from the noise.   Because the world needs your voice ~ and so do you.   3 Lainey   Next Steps:   Watch the Free Workshop: reawakenyourvoice.com/workshop Work with Lainey: reawakenyourvoice.com/coaching Visit the Website: reawakenyourvoice.com Email Us: support@reawakenyourvoice.com
