Smile More & Upward Inflection: Simple Vocal Techniques for Happiness

About

You too can learn to communicate with clarity, confidence and impact. Hi, I’m Darren McStay, and over the past 30 years, I’ve worked professionally on stage, screen, and behind the mic — and I’ve learned just how powerful the voice can be. Not only in performance, but in everyday life. Most of us were never taught how to use our voice effectively. We just speak... and hope we’re understood. That’s where Vocabilities comes in — vocal... abilities — get it? (Anyway...) this channel is here to help you unlock your voice’s full potential. Whether you're an actor, public speaker, teacher, or just tired of not being heard — you’ll find practical tools, exercises, and mindset shifts to help you speak with more (as promised) clarity, confidence, and impact! From breath and articulation to vocal dynamics and presence, I’ll help you build a voice that not only sounds better — but becomes more effortless to use. Subscribe and explore — there’s plenty here to get you started.
