Hi Ruth, Thanks, I totally hear you & I think I’m going to have to get a new camera. The lens is above eye level, so although. I’m getting better at looking at the screen, I’m still below the level of the lens. Looking up higher feels awkward, a new camera might be the best option, and allow me to talk more naturally, and look right at you.

Just keep rolling with what you got. If you were consistent in posting videos, I would say maybe. But right now… keep it going.

Hi Amy,
Well, a got 1 reply.
They asked: “OOH! Can you share what you did?
What did you say?
What did you imagine?
Did you move your body?”That’s a lot of questions, how do I handle that?
Do I just narrow it down by saying something like “Those are a lot of questions.
Let’s start w/ one, voice….”
Do I narrow it a different way?
And how much do you say without giving away the store?BTW – the person asking is a good friend, who I may do some work w/, probably won’t be a high-paying client.

1. Don’t discredit anyone who comments on your stuff. They are all apart of your aligned audience. you need them. Love on them ❤️
I think saying what you said – maybe with a little humor. Geezzz, you really took the “ask me anything” part for real 😉 Thanks,
Let’s start with voice. (you can describe the what and the why. Try to stay away from the how.-

Thanks, Amy! They are a very good friend, if the love didn’t show in my reply, it is definitely there. And thank you for the suggestion. It was such a big set of questions, it threw me off a bit.

Hi Amy,
Is this a reasonable answering the “what & why” or is it still too much info?
“The voices inside our heads impact us, from both the words & the way we say them to ourselves. even when the voice is so deeply buried our conscious mind doesn’t even hear it.
In my particular case, I heard the voice & the emotion it was carrying loud & strong. Changing the qualities of the voice & the words because of their intensity to something that felt better & gave me more resources was the challenge. Luckily, I have several different tools to help me. While it is still a work in progress, that younger me is calmer & more grounded than he was before.”

Joel – THIS follows the format and your caption here is perfect (and look at the views – much more clear and better engagement) – simplicity is key here: Ask Me Anything!

Great video–full of emotion. Did you watch it back? Are you looking the camera in the lens? To me, it looks like you have flashes of looking at it, but you’re mostly looking below it. Do you see what I mean? It would be so powerful if you were speaking straight to me instead of my belly button.
