If you're reading this, then you are probably a transmasculine person who has some complicated feelings about your voice. I know this struggle!
Whether you’re a trans man, or a transmasc nonbinary person, or you just struggle with the sound of your voice regardless of your gender, it can be so frustrating to move through the world knowing that merely opening your mouth to express yourself can cause gender dysphoria, distress, and discomfort.
You may have been told up until now that the only way to develop a voice that is low enough, deep enough, and powerful enough to align with your gender is to take testosterone. However, that is not the only way!
Whether you’re on the fence about taking testosterone, waiting to take testosterone, or you’ve decided that it’s not for you, I’m happy to tell you that you can still work on creating a voice that gets you gendered correctly and doesn’t have people mistaking you for way younger than you are.
You CAN create the masculine voice of your dreams. Interested? Keep reading!
If any of this sounds like a dream, I want you to know that it’s 100% possible for you. And I know that, because I've helped hundreds of people just like you. I've created an easy-to-follow resource to help you achieve your masculine voice without hormone therapy.
YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE.
I believe that gender-affirming voice training doesn’t have to be a painful and complicated process. It can be as fun and expressive as choosing what to wear or getting a haircut. It can also be as euphoria-inducing as hearing your chosen name or picking out a new binder.
As a voice teacher with over 14 years of experience, my strength is explaining complicated concepts in plain language that anyone can understand, as well as anticipating student problems before they occur.
My course will walk you through everything you need to know in order to feel confident in your voice journey! (And Oliver, the transmasc raccoon will be there for every step of your path 😊)

I don't have enough time
A regular voice practice doesn't have to be time-consuming. Sometimes a shift in mindset can have a huge impact. But ask yourself, how much time are spending now worrying about how you sound? Weaving a voice practice into your life can help you free up that time.
I don't have the money
I get it, $247 is a lot of money. However, when you compare it to the cost of private lessons, it's actually a very affordable option. This course provides the same information as roughly 12 private lessons, a value of anywhere between $1000 and $2500.
I don't have what it takes
Every single student I see thinks that they don't have what it takes. But I have never met a student who wasn't able to improve their vocal skills and make progress. You are not the exception! If you already use your voice to express yourself, you have what it takes.
Get started today before this once in a lifetime opportunity expires.
