An
internationally renowned and highly sought-after Hollywood voice coach shares
proven practices to help anyone utilize the often-untapped power of their own
authentic voice.

From a toddler's first words to
professional public speaking, from a marriage proposal to asking for a raise,
our voice is our most crucial instrument of expression. The world judges us by
our voice. And yet there has been no authoritative guide to mastering its full
capacity and expressing our true selves in every aspect of life, from
relationships and family to work. Until now.

As one of the nation’s most sought-after vocal coaches, Denise
Woods has worked with everyone from Mahershala Ali, Will Smith, and Idris Elba to Kirsten Dunst and Jessica Chastain. In The
Power of Voice, for the first time ever, Woods shares the secrets, tips,
lessons, and stories that have helped Hollywood’s biggest stars become
confident, effective communicators.

Readers will learn how to:

• Articulate clearly
• Gain confidence in any situation
• Release tension and stress
• Address speech issues such as upspeak, vocal fry, and nasality
• Become powerful public speakers
• Find their truest form of expression

With her unmatched ability to teach vocal mastery in real-world
terms, Woods offers a much-needed, proven, practical, and invaluable set of
tools that will forever change how we communicate and, ultimately, how we see
ourselves and affect others.
