Summary

Find your voice and use it to lead us to a better future, with this game-changing blueprint for redefining what power and authority sound like. Many of us, including women, people of color, immigrants, and queer folks, find it hard to speak up, but the issue is not just about willpower. Power, we're told, sounds like the mostly white, straight, wealthy men who wield it. Samara Bay has made it her mission to change that, and here she presents a fun and practical road map for making big cultural change while embracing our natural strengths. Drawing on her experience plus the latest research in public speaking, linguistics, and social science, she identifies tools for unlocking the potential in each of our voices--whether you're an entrepreneur, a new political candidate, a creative type with a bold vision, or a mom going back to work. Giving yourself permission means more than landing your message--it's about showing up when you show up and finding joy in speaking to your public
