Emily… you are absolutely right. Pushing your voice low results in hooty tone and vocal strain. Instead, you keep your head back, stay tall and pull those low notes out for richly resonant and controlled tone.

You forgot also about pushing your voice too low.

Kimberly thanks for your comment… yes, I have to keep notes to keep from rambling down rabbit trails, too! Knowing the material we want to deliver like the back of our hand also helps. Btw, love your website 'Keep the Tail Wagging'! My best in your quest to keep dogs (like I want to keep voices) healthy!

I don't sing, but I do have speaking engagement, something I want to do more of in 2017. Thank you for these tips. One issue I have is rambling. I've found that keeping notes – even for YouTube videos – keeps me on track. And practicing all the time (I practice my presentations when I'm driving) helps me be comfortable when I'm standing on the podium.
