Read MoreWINTER VOCAL HEALTH, PART 1
Winter is officially upon us, and I know as a teacher of voice how important it is to look after myself during this time of year. If I eat the wrong foods or go out with the wrong clothes on or have too many late nights, my voice suffers terribly, and I am unable to share my work.
