    Hi Singers! If you're a Gen Z/Millenial singer, listen in to today's episode where I share why I believe you MAY be struggling to feel confident in your singing. Hint: do you compare your voice to other singers?

    When listening to other singers' runs, belting, vocal flips and singing tricks, do you question whether your voice is good enough? I want you to know you're not alone. I'm speaking from experience. So what can you do instead of continuing to not feel confident singing? Listen in!
