Part 2
Another area I often see become irritated from too much touch is just under the ear, behind the jaw.
This is where the styloid process lives, and there are many sensitive structures in this region.
Repeated pressure or massage here can sometimes contribute to ongoing discomfort.
For many of my clients, I recommend taking a break from touching the throat and surrounding areas for two weeks, then reassessing how things feel.
Sometimes less input allows the system to settle.

Part 1
Are you irritating your throat by massaging it?
It is not uncommon for me to see people come into my clinic with irritation around the larynx from repeatedly touching the throat.
One of the most common areas is the thyroid gland. This tissue is more sensitive, and continued pressure or massage can contribute to discomfort rather than relieve it.
I have also seen this with dressers and quick changes, where tying a tie repeatedly brushes against the gland throughout a performance.
If this sounds familiar, I often recommend taking a break from touching the throat for two weeks and then reassessing what remains.

What if the cue isn’t more effort…�but more awareness
In this simple stacking drill, I’m not asking for more�I’m asking you to feel
Can you sense the band�against your shirt�against your skin
Notice what happens as you breathe
Does it expand�in more than one direction
Can you exhale�without losing it all at once
Sometimes the shift comes�from paying attention to what’s already there. Thanks to Ally Dixon for the reel!

Your voice is not just what you say. It is how your message lands.
In this upcoming session, communication specialist Leah Darby will guide us through the art of storytelling for your business. Not just from a performance lens, but from a place of clarity, connection, and intention.
Because how you communicate your work matters just as much as the work itself.
This session is an invitation to explore how your voice, your story, and your message align so that what you offer can truly be heard.
Join us inside the Vocal Resilience Academy.

What does your pelvic floor have to do with your voice?
More than most people realize.
The pelvic floor is not separate from the voice. It is part of the pressure system that supports breath, sound, and control. When it is not coordinating well, the body will find another strategy… often showing up as effort in the neck, jaw, or larynx.
Inside the Vocal Resilience Academy, we look at the voice through this full system lens.
I am excited to be joined by Aliza Rudavsky, DPT this June, as she shares her research and clinical perspective on the connection between the pelvic floor and the voice. This is not about adding more effort. It is about understanding how the system organizes so the voice has more options.
If you work with voices, or use your voice professionally, this is an important conversation.
Registration for the April cohort is open now. Guest presenter sessions are included inside the Academy.

Nasal collapse isn’t just about airflow. It can quietly influence pressure, breath strategy, and how the entire airway organizes for sound. When the nose loses structure, the body often adapts by shifting effort elsewhere… and that can show up in the ribcage, neck, jaw, and larynx.
This is why nasal function matters.
This July inside the Vocal Resilience Academy, I’ll be joined by Alexandra Clinton to explore nasal hygiene and function through a clinical and practical lens. We’ll look at how to support the nose as part of the whole system, not just treat symptoms in isolation.
If you work with voices, this is a piece you don’t want to miss.
Registration for the April cohort is open now, and our guest presenter series is included inside the Academy.

Registration is open.
The April cohort of The Visceral Voice Vocal Resilience Academy begins soon, and if this work has been on your mind, this is your moment to step in.
This is not just about vocal exercises.
This is about understanding how your body organizes for sound.
Breath, pressure, movement, and the nervous system all in conversation with your voice.
Designed for voice teachers, speech therapists, and bodyworkers who want to go deeper and connect the dots in a practical, usable way.
Early bird pricing is available for the next 3 days only.
We begin with video drip April 26 and our first live session April 29 at 11am ET.
If you have been wanting a clearer framework, more confidence in what you are seeing, and tools you can actually apply, I would love to have you inside.
Join us.

Tori are benign bony growths that can develop in the mouth, often along the palate or the inner surfaces of the jaw.
Many people have them and don’t realize it.
They are often associated with patterns of load and stress over time.
Your structure often reflects how your system has adapted over time.

You don’t have to choose between vocal exercises and body work.
They work together.
But when the body isn’t organized for breath, pressure, and movement… even the best exercises can feel inconsistent.
The Vocal Resilience Academy is where we bridge that gap.
This work is designed for voice teachers, speech therapists, and bodywork practitioners who want to better understand what they’re seeing and feeling in their work, and why certain patterns keep showing up.
We explore how the whole body supports the voice, so your tools become more specific, more adaptable, and more effective for each individual.
Registration for the April cohort opens this Thursday.
Early bird access is available for 3 days.
If you’re ready to expand your lens and bring a more integrated approach to your work, we would love to have you with us.
