Speaking From The Heart

By: Joshua D. Smith
  • Summary

  • This podcast is hosted by the Owner/Founder of Your Speaking Voice LLC, Joshua D. Smith. Extending from the values of the business, the purpose of the podcast is to provide a focus on: - Relationships: Personal connections are the underpinnings of creating many of the values in our lives. Without them, we are unable to provide opportunities for ourselves and potentially others. - Confidence: Being able to overcome challenges with the knowledge and skill sets that we have help us to showcase "the best version of ourselves". We are willing to pursue our aspirations/passions by being able to see through some of the challenges that are before us, whether physically or mentally. - Determination: Combining the formula together, being able to create the will to pursue opportunities through time, we create passions for goals that we can achieve by overcoming those events. Each episode focuses on a variation of one of these values, with the overall mission to engage in the transformation of our "voice" in this ever changing world. Want to learn more about the business?

  • Episode #194 - Finding Joy In All The Places Of Our Lives: An Interview With Andrea Fung
    Feb 13 2025

    Joy is a sensation that can have multiple applications in our well being. Whether it is for physical or mental purposes and/or refinements, joy can be the epiphany of why we perform the activities that we tend to do. The path towards finding joy can be riddled with many different obstacles, both in our personal lives and even for our career calling. Today's guest, Andrea Fung, shares her transformational journey from being a lawyer to become a healer through another means. The life that we are dictated to lead can provide no joy, but when we have the "breadcrumbs" that lead us to a greater calling, there is no denying the healing potential it can have not only on yourself, but on others as well.
