Why Your Voice Tightens Under Pressure — and How to Work With It
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Your voice tightens, goes thin, or shakes the moment it matters most — a pitch, a hard conversation, the presentation you rehearsed for weeks. It's not a preparation problem. It's your nervous system reading the moment as unsafe. In this episode I unpack why that happens, why bolting on technique doesn't hold under pressure, and three things you can practice — notice the habit, name what it's protecting, and release the physical tension — so your natural voice comes through when it counts. Plus a simple way to train for high-stakes moments before you're in them.
