I was in a voice lesson, working with one of my adult clients. We were digging into a Chappell Roan song, and, to my ears, everything was going along swimmingly, when the student suddenly said, “I’m so frustrated, I can’t get this part to sound like the recording!” ”Oh,” I replied, “well, that’s because what you’re hearing there isn’t real.” Wait, what? Please allow me to explain. :)

Back during the early days of lockdown, my business coach Michelle offered to host a virtual coworking session for our cohort. I had never participated in or even really heard of such a thing, so I was excited and curious to try it out.
