Episode #96 Inside Out Leadership and Voice w/ Robb Holman
Welcome to the show!
Today you are in for a treat. I’m taking a break from my series on Effective Communication to share with you an amazing interview that I recently had the pleasure of doing.
With me on the show, today is Robb Holman and we had an extraordinary conversation both on record and off. Robb’s leadership philosophy and work line up so nicely with the voice work I do and I know you are going to love hearing from him. Talk about vocal energy!
Today Robb and I talk about:
Why voice is key in leadership,
What it means to be inside out,
Why it’s essential that we work on the inside to succeed on the outside,
And so much more!
If you are interested in getting your voice ready for 2018 so you can speak your truth beautifully, please reach out. I’d love to hear where your challenges are so I can do episodes just for you.

Episode #94 How Your Tone of Voice is Hurting or Helping You
Welcome to the show!
WOW!!! 100 Episodes! I could not have done this without your support. Thank you so much for being a listener, a subscriber, a downloader and a reviewer!
I love this show and I’m so grateful for your support.
Today on episode 100 I’m talking about a topic that is really close to my heart. I’m very sensitive to the tone of voice people speak to me and others with. Tone makes a big impact on most of the people you communicate within your business and personal life. Tone speaks volumes!
The thing about tone is that it can really help create your success or really hinder it. The unfortunate part is that tone of voice is hurting too many people in their communication with others ultimately slowing their connections and success. Just like non-verbals, we use tone because we struggle to say what we need to say, struggle to really express our emotions so we rely on letting those emotions out in our tone rather than just using the proper words. But the tone of voice you use can literally wreck your business and personal relationships.
I’m still on the effective communication and voice series, your tone of voice is an obvious part of it.
Today I’ll be talking about why and how your tone of voice can create problems for you and what you need to do to change your tone. I think you’re going to really love this episode and this one you might definitely want to share with others so they can check their tone!

Guest Bio
Filip Valica has been a mechanical engineer and manager for over 12 years, designing, testing and building products. He has worked for a broad range of companies – from mom-and-pop small businesses to some of the largest corporations in the US. Filip founded The Product Startup to provide a step-by-step blueprint to aspiring product creators wanting to bring their own ideas to market.
Along with his mother, Filip came to the United States as a political refugee from Czechoslovakia when he was 7 years old. They arrived with two suitcases and $80 in cash and left behind all of their family. His journey and success in the United States prove that it’s possible to create your own luck through hard work.
At an early age, Filip became the “man-of-the-house” and was responsible for fixing things around the house. After college, he pooled his savings, borrowed money from his friends, bought an inhabitable foreclosure and spent the next 2 years to make it livable.
Filip lives in Houston, Texas with his wife and daughter. After his daughter was born, he realized that he needed to focus on his passion and soon launched The Product Startup.
Filip believes that anyone can develop a product using recent advances in technology and tools – and by following the same road map many other companies currently use to commercialize their ideas. On his podcast, Filip interviews other founders and shows listeners a how they can build their products and brands on a tight budget. His hands-on point of view resonates with other action-oriented small business owners and entrepreneurs. You can find out more about Filip at https://theproductstartup.com/
