Are you showing up authentically or are you prone to hiding?

In this episode, I explore the hidden connection between authenticity in your life and how believable your American accent sounds on screen and on stage.

If you’ve ever felt like your accent comes across as forced and unnatural then this episode will open your eyes to why that happens and what to do about it.

Listen as I talk about:

• The difference between authentic vs. inauthentic
• How fear, people-pleasing, and perfectionism show up in your accent
• Why your daily life habits mirror how you perform with an accent
• Practical steps to uncover more authenticity in both your craft and your voice
• A simple exercise to bring presence and truth into your American accent practice
