| 7/23/26 | Showing Up as You by Integrating Body, Mind and Soul | Episode 80 - Body, Mind and Self: Why Integration Is the Missing Piece in Finding Your VoiceIn this solo episode of Be Truly Heard, host Anne Leatherland brings her current series to a close by drawing everything together - the guests, the themes and the framework that sits at the heart of all her work.Anne introduces her Vocal Intuition Framework in detail for the first time, walking through the three elements she believes every speaker needs to integrate - body, mind balance and self activation - and explaining what goes wrong when any one of them is missing. Key TakeawaysVoice work that focuses on only one thing will always fall short.Technique without self activation produces skilled but hollow delivery. Confidence without vocal skill lacks authority. Inner belief without mind balance sends speakers off on unregulated tangents.The voice in the head speaks around 1,200 times a day - and most of it is negative.Mind balance is not about silencing that voice but about knowing which parts to listen to and which to reframe. The positive messages are there - they are just easily overlooked.Integration is what allows you to stop performing confidence and simply have it.When body, mind and self are working together, you are no longer monitoring yourself constantly. Your voice reflects your capability in a way that people immediately respond to differently.Vocal skills can be learned - and most people do not realise that.There is a significant difference between the voice someone uses every day and the voice of a professional voice user. That gap can be closed with the right technique.Key Moments"Just be yourself isn't enough if you tend to be someone who gets very nervous about speaking.""If you have skills and mind balance but no self activation, it doesn't resonate.”"You're not trying to sound confident anymore. You just are.""Your voice starts working for you in your business - that is when opportunities open."About Be Truly HeardBe Truly Heard is the podcast for women in business who want to speak with authority, warmth and authenticity. Hosted by Anne Leatherland, coach and voice expert, each episode explores vocal skills and personal growth strategies to help listeners overcome confidence barriers and communicate what is inside.Because your voice matters.

| 10/16/25 | Waking Up Your Voice | In this episode of Be Truly Heard, Anne explores why a vocal warm-up matters, using the athlete analogy to highlight performance and injury prevention for speakers. She explains voice as a whole system of breath, abdominal support, larynx and focus, and how speaking raises adrenaline that benefits from light movement. Simple habit ideas make warm-ups easy to fit into mornings, anchored to the toothbrush, kettle or shower.A short guided sequence covers breath reset, gentle Z or V voicing, tongue and jaw release, facial activation, crisp consonants, and an easy hum to wake range. Anne clarifies the difference between warming up and training, encourages tailoring to the task, and invites listeners to get in touch for personalised guidance.Key TakeawaysTreat your voice like an athlete’s: warm up to avoid fatigue, improve performance and reduce risk.Build a morning habit: stack vocal warm-ups onto existing routines (kettle note, fridge sticky, shower steam).Breathe efficiently: long, leaky psh out-breath; let the lower tummy release to refill, no chest pushing.Wake the folds gently with Z/V; add tongue circles, TH stretch, light jaw massage, “five wows”, then P-T-K / B-D-G bursts.Glide pitch with puffed cheeks to ease range, keep effort low, and movements relaxed.Safety first: don’t practise while driving/using machinery; be cautious with clicky jaws/teeth-grinding.Warm-ups differ from training; tailor them to phone calls, Zoom or projecting to a room (with/without mic).App tip: One Minute Voice Warm Up by Speech Tools/Vocal Process can keep you consistent.Best Moments“If you use your voice a lot… you are actually a professional voice user.”“Using your voice is like running or any other sport.”“A warm-up is there just to get the voice going.”“By the way, if you’re listening to this in the car, don’t do this.”About the hostWith over 28 years’ voice-teaching experience, Anne Leatherland helps clients progress quickly and achieve goals with confidence. Bridging science, education and the performing arts, she is a science graduate, qualified teacher and singing teacher with advanced training in voice practice, vocal habilitation and life coaching.

| 10/2/25 | What is Midlife Anyway? With Guest Kath Cheng | In this episode of Be Truly Heard, Anne Leatherland welcomes mentor Kath Cheng to reframe “midlife” as “midway”, a fresh chapter rather than a decline. They discuss why periods of uncertainty can be fertile ground for growth, how upbringing and beliefs can mute women’s voices, and practical ways to rebuild clarity and confidence. Expect a grounded, non-woo-woo chat about embracing the journey, taking sensible risks, and speaking up with purpose.Key TakeawaysReframe midlife as midway: a forward-looking stage with choices, not a static label or crisis.Triggers (job changes, shifting family dynamics, redundancy) can create space to reassess values and direction.Confidence grows by doing: imperfect action beats waiting to feel “ready.”Take calculated risks: scary and exciting, not reckless.Best Moments“I’m not there to give them the answers.”“It’s the journey that you’re on.”“Get curious about what lights you up.”“Scary but reasonable… scary but exciting.”About the guestKath Cheng mentors women who are new to personal growth and ready to design their next chapter with clarity and confidence. She reframes midlife as Midway, a choice point that opens fresh purpose and possibility. Her work blends practical guidance with steady support so clients make real progress without perfection.Kath created the Her Midway Activation Code, a short audio series that helps women reignite curiosity, decisiveness and courage.

| 9/18/25 | Taking up Space | In this episode of Be Truly Heard, Anne Leatherland revisits the idea of “owning the space” and takes it further, on how to take up space so you feel you belong in the room and your message lands. She explains that voice is both physical and personal, shaped by breath, alignment and the nervous system, and shares two client wins (Elsa’s impromptu graduation talk and Claire’s high-stakes Zoom) to show how grounding, breath–vocal fold coordination and seated dynamic alignment can transform confidence and clarity. Anne contrasts rigid “power poses” with natural, responsive body use, then guides safe awareness exercises on head–neck balance (drawing on the Alexander Technique), spinal curves and allowing micromovements to stay balanced. Key TakeawaysOwning the space is essential, but feeling entitled to take it up (you belong here; your voice deserves to be heard) is the unlock for confident speaking.Swap “posture” for dynamic alignment: a responsive, balanced stance or seat that keeps you free to move and speak, never rigid. Think micromovements, not statues.Head–neck balance changes your sound: craning forward, lifting the chin, leaning, or slumping tightens the system; a small “nodding dog” balance frees it. Try counting to five in each position to feel the difference.Your voice is a system: breath interacts with the vocal folds, supported by abdominal and stabilising musculature, so alignment and breathing habits matter.Best Moments“Successful communication begins before you even open your mouth.”“Our head is not attached to our neck like a lollipop on a stick.”“We need to allow what I call micro movements.”“Our voice is the result of lots of different processes.”About the hostWith over 28 years’ voice-teaching experience, Anne Leatherland helps clients progress quickly and achieve goals with confidence.
