In this episode, Brian Baker shares what happened after just 4 days doing the 66 parkinson's voice project SPEAK OUT program from home — for free. From vocal warm-ups like "may me my mo moo" to counting 1-12 with intent, to reading about table tennis with inflection, he breaks down what actually works for soft speech, and why remembering to speak with intent at work is so hard.
