Sue Stockdale talks to Susan Murphy, a broadcast voice coach who helps young broadcasters find and use authentic voice and pitch. Susan describes why audio and voice has become more important recently, how to access your best vocal pitch, and what causes some of her clients have tears in their eyes when they find their authentic voice.

Susan spent 40 years on-air and in production, learning what makes an effective voice and it has propelled her career. Her voiceover work has appeared on television commercials and programs, websites, and even e-learning (she is known as Vanessa in some Artificial Intelligence environments). More recently she found her true passion in teaching others and now works with clients as a broadcast voice coach, polishing the on-air sound of anchors and reporters.
