How To Give Your Voice Power & Speak With Greater Impact w/ Author & Speaker Samara Bay

Conscious Profits Unfiltered with Sebastian Naum

Today I had on Samara Bay, a successful speaker, sought-after speech coach, and author of the book, Permission to Speak.

Samara is a highly accomplished woman, her journey to become a speech coach is fascinating having once lost her voice for months without speaking. She is now a coach to many public figures, candidates for U.S. congress, and many people in Hollywood. She’s been hired by everyone from Marvel to Netflix to help movie stars integrate good acting with good accents. Some of her clients include Gal Gadot, Pierce Brosnan, Penelope Cruz, Ricky Martin and the list goes on.

Her work on rethinking the sound of power has been featured in The New York Times Magazine, Forbes, CBS Sunday Morning, Tamron Hall, Slate, and many more.

We spoke a lot about the concept of changing the sound of power, how our voices and the way we speak affect the way we are treated. Our voice stories vs our personal stories. How giving authentic power to our voices with a focus on those of women and minorities is helping shift power within companies and how that affects business as a whole.

The thing is, you don't have to be a public speaker or CEO to see the immense value that bringing power to your voice can have.

This is just as powerful to a parent of a teenager as it is to someone speaking to an audience of ten thousand.
