It's a close-up photograph (from the chest up to the top of the head) of Joana Lisboa smiling, wearing a colorful scarf around her neck and a semi-transparent textured black sweater. The background is blurred, revealing some office furniture.

Joana Lisboa on the power of your voice

You can listen to episode 245 here:

My guest today is Joana Lisboa from Unleash your Vocal Power. We met on LinkedIn last year when I think I commented on one of Joana’s voice-related posts. Then, after chatting some more, I thought she would be a great guest for the podcast.

For the past 12 years, Joana’s life mission has been to help others find their authentic voice. The process of self-discovery she suggests to her clients has been proven by her before starting her career as a Vocal Coach. She went from being a shy girl, barely heard, to someone who believes in applying her vocal power authentically, no matter the circumstances. She works with entrepreneurs and companies and also gives singing lessons. Anything related to voice and body captures her attention: communication, singing, acting, cinema, dancing.

We talked about:

  • Joana’s story and how she came into vocal coaching
  • How both shy and outgoing people both have communication challenges
  • Why it’s important to know your voice and how you can be creative and flexible with it. The freedom when you can be yourself!
  • How public speaking can help you to develop and discover your voice
  • The best advice – to be present and focus on what’s happening here and now.
