Identifies five distinct vocal colors within the human voice and demonstrates how to put them to work in your life.

Full Voice offers a fun, tested method to harness the power of your voice to become a more effective and flexible communicator. Barbara McAfee identifies five distinct vocal tones or qualities—earth, fire, water, metal, and air—and explains how to cultivate each voice. You’ll also discover how to use your voice to convey authority, passion, compassion, and other essential leadership qualities—and how to choose the right voice to ensure your message and meaning are understood. McAfee’s approach offers much more than a minor cosmetic improvement. It enables you to use your voice to support your intentions and aspirations, express who you truly are, and bring your gifts to the world. As you become more aware of your own voice, you also become a better listener, more attuned to what people are saying underneath their words. You’ll discover how opening your full voice opens you to untapped potential, power, and aliveness as well. The Enhanced Edition includes six videos (15:15 minutes) and two audio (6:20 minutes) segments by the author. Part I, Understanding Voice, is supported by two songs, ‘Who You Gonna Be While You Do What You Do?’ and ‘Brain Rats,’ together with a breathing exercises video to fully utilize your Full Voice. The other five videos provide earth, fire, water, metal, and air practice lessons at the end of each chapter in Part II, The Five Elements Framework. Barbara McAfee is a musician, coach and consultant with over twelve years of experience in organizational change.
