This podcast is hosted by the Owner/Founder of Your Speaking Voice LLC, Joshua D. Smith. Extending from the values of the business, the purpose of the podcast is to provide a focus on: - Relationships: Personal connections are the underpinnings of creating many of the values in our lives. Without them, we are unable to provide opportunities for ourselves and potentially others. - Confidence: Being able to overcome challenges with the knowledge and skill sets that we have help us to showcase "the best version of ourselves". We are willing to pursue our aspirations/passions by being able to see through some of the challenges that are before us, whether physically or mentally. - Determination: Combining the formula together, being able to create the will to pursue opportunities through time, we create passions for goals that we can achieve by overcoming those events. Each episode focuses on a variation of one of these values, with the overall mission to engage in the transformation of our "voice" in this ever changing world. Want to learn more about the business?

Episode #194 - Finding Joy In All The Places Of Our Lives: An Interview With Andrea Fung
Joy is a sensation that can have multiple applications in our well being. Whether it is for physical or mental purposes and/or refinements, joy can be the epiphany of why we perform the activities that we tend to do. The path towards finding joy can be riddled with many different obstacles, both in our personal lives and even for our career calling. Today's guest, Andrea Fung, shares her transformational journey from being a lawyer to become a healer through another means. The life that we are dictated to lead can provide no joy, but when we have the "breadcrumbs" that lead us to a greater calling, there is no denying the healing potential it can have not only on yourself, but on others as well.Guest BioAndea Fung is former lawyer turned Transformational Coach and Energy Healer for corporate professionals and soulful entrepreneurs based in Australia and Malaysia.

Episode #193 - Testing Your Abilities
Have you ever been tested by someone, whether it is someone in your life or at your job/business, who did not give you the credibility that you deserve? Has your self worth and feeling of worthiness been put into question as a result of being challenged/misunderstood? Today’s episode focuses on not only the reaction that we, as humans, can possibly experience when we are put into question, but how the conversation can turn around using the “determination” value to prove to others, even though it is unnecessary, that we are worthy.Visit Our Website: https://speaking-from-the-heart.captivate.fm/Visit Our Business Website: https://www.yourspeakingvoice.bizSupport The Mission Of The Business!

Episode #192 - Exploring Your Passions Outdoors: An Interview With Mike Martin

Through his impressive podcast experience and powerful storytelling that helps others, learn how his insights about life fundamentally changed not only his path in his life, but how he has helped other explore theirs using the power of nature along the way.

Episode #191 - Having An Important Message To Share
We each have a voice to share so much in this ever-changing world. The message that we have, however, can be simply “lost in translation”, especially with the number of different messages as a whole that we are faced with on average (325 emails, text messages, & ads combined!) How do we stand out from this overwhelming amount of information? Today’s episode takes us back to basics: knowing your purpose. Learning how to communicate to a smaller group first that can propel your message forwards can help your message excel its wildest potential.Visit Our Website: https://speaking-from-the-heart.captivate.fm/Visit Our Business Website: https://www.yourspeakingvoice.bizSupport The Mission Of The Business!

Episode #189 - Why Do You Never Tell Me Like It Is?
Have you ever wished that someone would tell you the truth about a situation that took place, and that the feedback that you wished you could receive was more genuine, especially when you know it’s not complete with information? Stunting personal & professional growth by not giving constructive feedback can be tremendously damaging if it is not shared, but can also suffer the same consequences if the way that it is delivered is carefully considered. In today’s episode about a contemporary take on “honesty is the best policy”, we dive into how to handle these conversations with constructive feedback, attention to non-verbal cues, and the integrity each of us have in sharing important information that can fundamentally change the trajectory of someone’s life.Visit Our Website: https://speaking-from-the-heart.captivate.fm/Visit Our Business Website: https://www.yourspeakingvoice.bizSupport The Mission Of The Business!
