Hi Emme,

Thank you so much for posting this. As someone who has spent my life wobbling between loving and hating the sound of my own voice and how it represents my gender, this is incredibly affirming to hear. As much as voice training seems like it would solve problems, it introduces so many more. I've also chosen to utilize my natural voice day to day, while still tuning in to training techniques for education only.

You don't owe the world any kind of voice but your own. Keep it up! ❤️‍🩹

Last time I checked if you looked "beat" that meant you were ugly. Apparently it now means the opposite. Not as annoying as calling something cool "lit", which was a perfectly fine slang word accurately describing that nice place of being stoned and maybe a little drunk.
