Do you want…
to speak clearly and dynamically without feeling fake?
to connect deeply with your true path to feel confident in the next best steps?
people to put their phones away every time you present your ideas because they’re captivated?
to be a more engaging storyteller?
My clients feel confident, certain, and clear about how they show up to be their best.
With my self-paced learning opportunities, you’ll focus on enhancing your true self—not in a way that feels uncomfortable or fake. It is about enriching the talents you already possess but may not realize you have as they have been allowed or forced to lie dormant.
Now offered as one comprehensive self-paced course, Embodied Voice teaches you how to speak more clearly while clarifying your vision for personal growth so you can be influential in your career, personal life, and more. Section One of the course, Get Clear, primarily focuses on consonants and tactile energy of expression, guiding you toward personal clarity regarding your life message. You will develop your speaking voice and your inner voice. As a result, you’ll become more confident and connected with your true expression by feeling grounded through your articulation. You’ll step into grounded activism and realize ways to show up fully in your life.
Section Two of the course, Feel Dynamic, teaches you how to develop a warm, resonant speaking voice that is free from tension physically (and, perhaps, emotionally). This course focuses on refining your vocal tone, vocal power, and the fluid movement of vowels, which have a much softer side than many realize. Whether you want to strengthen your voice, be heard without shouting across a room, or be more expressive without feeling fake, this course will develop your voice's beauty and power. In turn, you will develop your personal power and expressive dynamics regardless of what life brings you. Step into your power and discover the strength that comes with vulnerability.
This course includes:
✔ 13 video modules covering the whole of Arthur Lessac’s embodied voice practice (Video lessons range from 4-15 minutes each)
✔ 13 video journal prompts with soothing music to accompany your reflective process
✔ 30-page PDF workbook with journal prompts
✔ 6 Mindset Moment videos to take you on a deeper dive with the work into how you are showing up
✔ A separate Mindset Moments PDF journal
✔ A 40-day suggested course calendar

Plus,

Discover what past clients have to say…
“My energy level before the program was low and nonproductive. Now I feel free. I’m not tied down to suffering or feeling lost anymore. I’m clear on who I am and what I need to do to be the best version of myself. I know how that’s not only going to impact my career for the better, but also my personal life and my work as a mom.”
Theresa S.
“My stress level has dropped. I know how to be my most productive self during the day. I feel confident and hopeful instead of stuck and like I don’t have control. I feel like I’m finally blossoming.”
Jessica J.
“This program put me in a position to examine my past and set clear goals for my future. Because of the foundation of this program, I was able to attract and accept a new, exciting position! The curriculum and training taught me how to ask for more. My new role has a title increase, more pay, and, best of all, I finally feel my contributions will be appreciated!”
Ashley E.
“Going through Melissa’s coaching program was nothing short of transformational. Her program helped me uncover the origins of my imposter syndrome voices and learn how to handle them effectively. I am now much more effective and intentional, in the office and other facets of my life. If you struggle with imposter syndrome, wrestling with hard questions about your ‘why,’ or are just seeking to live as your best self, Melissa is the right coach for you.”
Andrew R.
“I have been working with Melissa on Mindfulness for the past several months, and it has been transformational. As a busy trial lawyer, stress has always been an issue, and through Melissa's help and guidance, I have learned techniques...such as a 5-minute morning mindfulness session to ease into the day and short reflective breaks during the work day...that have greatly reduced my stress level. Her helping me focus on my "true self" has given me the strength, courage, and wisdom to shed those activities and commitments that do not fully align with who I am. Her guidance regarding taking care of my emotional, physical, and spiritual self and thinking about how much energy I have to devote to personal and professional obligations has helped me focus on what is truly important. As Melissa continues to be a wonderful resource, I plan to continue working with her and recommend her wholeheartedly to those seeking a more balanced and fulfilling life.”
Tom C.
“I sought out a vocal coach because I am starting to put out weekly videos for my business. I found Integrative Studio courses to be enjoyable and very useful in preparing me and giving me the confidence I was looking for.I also really appreciated Melissa's private sessions, as she quickly found where I needed the most help and provided exercises specific to me. I'm still using them. Thanks, Melissa!”
Cate I.
“Melissa really knows her stuff. Her teachings have helped me so much! I highly recommend her coaching and voice work, not to mention her yoga expertise!”
Marni C.
“I feel like I have a true path forward and know how to live abundantly daily. During the program, I learned how to reschedule my days, add meditation to my life, change my morning routine, realize when my most productive times are, and I began sleeping so much better!”
