Your Powerful Voice: 3 Ways To Make It
Stronger (Part 1)
What makes a voice
powerful? When I was young
I remember one of my earliest
encounters hearing a Powerful
voice. I went to the zoo in ele
mentary school with my class
mates. As soon as I walked into
the zoo and without warning, I
heard a sound that sent shivers
down my spine. It was a li
on’s roar. The lion was all the
way at the back of the zoo—
miles away, yet its roar could
be heard the loudest. Did you
know that a lion’s roar can
travel 5 miles? What a power
ful voice! I had a similar “pow
erful voice” encounter when I
heard Dr. Martin Luther King
Jr’s “I Have a Dream” speech
during his March on Washing
ton. He spoke to over 250,000
on the steps of the Lincoln Me
morial to peacefully protest ra
cial injustice and demand uni
ty. His voice was powerful and
Victoria Baylor
his voice carried a message that
has impacted millions.
It’s easy to recog
nize a powerful voice when
you hear it. It moves you both
physically, emotionally, and
stirs you mentally. A power
ful voice ALWAYS carries a
message. You have a POWER
FUL voice too! It’s your tool
to share the thoughts and ideas
you carry and connect them
to the world. Society, family,
and other situations can make
you question the power of her
voice. Perhaps you’ve tried to
use it and have had it ignored,
minimized, or explained away.
But don’t underestimate it. If
anything you want to develop
it on a greater level. I want to
offer you 3 ways to make it
stronger. Catch part 2 of this
article in 2 weeks!
