INHALE CONFIDENCE: A Voice Coach's Guide to Finding Your Power, Presence, and Performance Edge
By Vandi Lynnae Enzor, BFA, MM
Do you struggle to trust your voice when the pressure's on? Do you find yourself holding your breath-literally or metaphorically-before speaking or singing?
Whether you're a singer, actor, public speaker, voiceover artist, or simply someone who wants to communicate with clarity and power, Inhale Confidence offers a practical and inspiring guide to building unshakable vocal confidence.
Written by vocal pedagogue Vandi Lynnae Enzor, a seasoned performer and respected coach with a BFA and MM in voice and pedagogy, this book is a powerful blend of science-based technique, mindset coaching, and holistic voice training. With decades of professional experience across opera, musical theatre, teaching, and studio work, Enzor shares the same tools and insights she's used to guide hundreds of students into confident, authentic vocal expression-on stage, on camera, in auditions, and in everyday life.
