My Story in Waves
FINDING MY VOICE
"Audible Postcards"
A 5 Day Journey about Reclaiming My Voice
Day 1 of 5 - I thought I Might Be Tone Deaf
I Thought I Might Be Tone Deaf
I thought I might be tone deaf.
I thought maybe
I couldn’t hear properly.
Maybe something in me was off.
Today I followed a melody.
Low to middle to high.
And it sounded…
Sweet. Deep. Mine.
Sometimes we are not broken.
We have just never been given space to listen.

Day 2 of 5 - My Voice Moved
My Voice Moved
My voice moved today.
Low — steady and grounded.
Middle — open and connected.
High — light and free.
It didn’t crack.
It didn’t hide.
It didn’t apologize.
It moved.
Maybe finding your voice isn’t about volume.
Maybe it’s about allowing movement.
Day 3 of 5 - I Can Hear!
I Can Hear!
Today I learned something simple
and life-changing:
I can hear.
I can follow.
I can sing.
There is nothing wrong with my inner compass.
If you’ve ever wondered whether
you’re “off” - pause.
Perhaps you just haven’t been allowed
to practice being audible.
Day 4 of 5 - Taller & Lighter!
Taller & Lighter!
After 30 minutes of singing,
my body felt taller.
And lighter.
As if something that had been folded
had quietly unfolded.
Reclaiming your voice
doesn’t make you louder.
It makes you upright
Day 5 of 5 - Permission!
Permission!
I didn’t need to become
a better singer.
I needed permission
to sound.
If you are waiting to feel ready -
this is it.
You don’t have to perform.
You just have to begin.
