I reveal the real voice beneath the protection – the one that creates connection, trust and influence the moment you speak.
Seven layers. One aligned, powerful presence.
The 7 Layers of Sound™ is a behavioral voice framework that reveals the subconscious stories, emotions and protection patterns hidden beneath the surface of how you speak. By working through each layer, we uncover the real voice that communicates truth, trust and power without performance or pretense.
Because the world doesn’t respond to your words – it responds to your sound. When your voice carries the frequency of truth and authority, you don’t have to convince anyone of your value – they feel it the moment you speak.
Overthinking or Cognition
This is the layer of managing words, reading the room, anticipating judgment, trying to get it “right.”
Past-based protection, present-moment connection or future-driven pushing.
The outcome-driven, no-nonsense, people-pleasing, perfectionistic tendencies and voice stories that show up.
The more obvious, behavioral masks – sounding polished, cheerful, professional, “on.”
The deeper, identity-protective masks you discovered – tone patterns that hide truth, shield vulnerability or control perception.
Where the old hurts, silencing, rejection and survival patterns live – and leak through.
The fully expressed, aligned, grounded, resonant real voice – without remnants, masks or distortion.
Working through the 7 Layers of Sound™ will free you from the subconscious protection patterns that have kept you performing instead of connecting. As the layers dissolve, your natural authority, confidence and presence emerge effortlessly with no scripting, no forcing, no persona.
The result is a voice that feels deeply authentic, creates
instant trust and naturally compels attention and action.
