The Magnetic Voice

The Magnetic Voice

Today's guest, Monique McDonald is a grammy nominated award winning vocal specialist and a certified conscious transformational coach.

Julie and Monique discuss the difference between writing and speaking and how to engage the audience in both ways. Monique believes that our voice is a reflection of our life experience, and just like your thumbprint, each voice has its own identity, sound, and quality based on past trauma and how we processed it. She teaches her clients how to clear the trash so that there is more room for you, and how this takes down our walls to allow the message and expertise to flow through authentically and powerfully.
