Finding a different sound, feeling comfortable in it and using it through an ordinary day were separate parts of the change for me.
01 · Physical
What you hear and feel.
The unfamiliar vibration, the difference on playback, cracking, volume and getting tired from speaking.
02 · Emotional
What the change means to you.
Shame, fear, feeling exposed and wondering whether a different voice still belongs to you. These were some of the hardest parts for me.
03 · Everyday use
Taking it into ordinary life.
Using the voice with people you know, going back to the familiar sound and recognising progress beyond a good recording.
