A proposito di questo titolo
If you try to sound professional by flattening your voice into a "newscaster" tone in your podcasts or videos, you are actually making it harder for people to listen. Science shows that listeners physically mimic the tension in your voice. Basically, if you feel nothing, then they feel nothing.
This episode looks at Simulation Theory and Emotional Contagion. I go over how your vocal prosody triggers the mirror neurons in your listener's brain. This biological link is why that "NPR Voice" thing often doesn't work all that well in podcasting, and why you need to use techniques to connect.
Get better at communication and public speaking to improve your next episode.
Key Takeaways:
- Why listeners physically mimic the emotions they hear in your voice.
- Why sounding objective or impartial creates a barrier to connection.
- Mirror Neurons: How to trigger the "audio-motor link" in your audience's brain.
- A simple script analysis and practice drill to inject genuine emotion into your episodes.
