It is amazing how quickly people not only trust you but seemingly warm to you when your voice timber is deep and crisp. There is a biological reason for this, and I believe the answer can be found in genetic programing. When we were babies, we all responded to voice depth. To our tiny baby inner ear, even mom’s feminine voice sounded deep. Being reliant babies, we were soothed and re-assured by voice depth.

This part of our brain, the subconscious is still active and with us. It plays a role in our lives to this day. When we go to the bank manager for a home loan, or when we go for a job interview, or when we have business dealings with possible business partners. A deep crisp voice develops immediate trust.

The person making assessments about you will consider the first impression. In other words, the way you look. This lasts exactly 5 seconds until you open your mouth. You can look immaculate, but if you sound terrible, you will reverse any good your looks won for you. Conversely, if you turned up in jeans and a stained t-shirt, but your voice was deep crisp and the timber was strong, the jeans and t-shirt will matter for probably under 10 seconds until you begin to speak. People will make all sorts of excuses for you in their minds and justify anything they dont like, if your voice timber makes them feel re-assured.

It is a biological reaction, that people cannot help. This immediate calming and pacification gives people the strength to trust, simply because of your voice.

Some of the best voice coaches will work with the individuals timber and not their elocution or pronunciation. Many people who turn to a voice coach forget the reason why they came to one in the first place. Most men go get some speech therapy to improve the depth and timber of their voice on a consistent basis, but get lost and waste time on elocution lessons. Some even turn to signing lessons to try and develop the much sought after baritone voice.

Millions of men suffer from squeaky voice syndrome. Many report that typically, they may on occasion wake up to find they have a pleasant timber in their voice, but by mid morning it wears off and that strained nasal voice comes back. Many complain of the sensation, of the voice actually coming from their head and not their chest. This high pitch is due to a loss of habitual control and a loss of confidence.

These types of candidates are perfect for a voice coach because they have demonstrated capacity. The fact that their voice “CAN” sound deep and crisp on occasions in the mornings, means that they can be trained to have that voice consistently. Some men have biological reasons for this problem and may need other forms of medical intervention. However, if the experience of waking in the morning occasionally and having that crisp voice then it shows that it is the individuals training that needs help and no medical assistance is required. Some men have resorted to seeing their doctor about getting HRT or hormone replacement therapy and this can be the right course of action for some men who don’t have adequate levels of testosterone in their system.
