One brave word leads to another.

When Amy Vogel first started speaking, it wasn’t on a TEDx stage or at a book launch.
It was selling software. 

In the sales world she adjusted her message to fit the audience and learned how to connect before she even knew that’s what she was doing.

Later, she found herself preaching — first to full rooms, then during COVID, to an empty screen.

At first, Amy thought she needed to have it “all figured out.

But she learned something that changed everything:

Nobody knows what you’re supposed to say.

That realization led her to a deeper truth — one that lives at the heart of Soulful Speaking:

Speaking soulfully isn’t about getting it “right.”
It’s about letting yourself be real.

Your voice isn’t something you have to invent.
It’s something you remember, refine, and reveal — one real moment at a time.

And here’s the beautiful part:

When you find your voice in one arena — speaking, writing, drawing, singing — it ripples into all the others.

The more you trust yourself in one space, the more your voice rises everywhere.

In our conversation, Amy and I explored:

• How she found her voice moving from sales to preaching to coaching
• Why setting an intention matters more than perfection
• What speaking and writing each teach us about trusting what’s already inside

Amy’s story is full of powerful reminders:

• You don’t have to be perfect to be powerful.
• Your audience is already rooting for you.
• Every step you take in sharing your voice makes the next one easier.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re “ready” to share your voice — whether in writing, speaking, or leading — this episode is for you.
