General Overview
Conversation Summary:
In this solo podcast episode, host Tracy Goodwin discussed the concept of authenticity as the highest frequency of sound. She critiqued the popular but, in her view, unsubstantiated claims circulating online about the "Spain scale of emotion" proving this. Instead, she argued that authenticity's power stemmed from the pure alignment of one's sound with their true feelings and intentions. Goodwin explained that achieving this alignment was difficult due to psychological barriers she called "voice masks" and "voice stories," which caused people to hide or fabricate emotions. She asserted her ability to hear these misalignments and nuances in what she termed the "seventh layer of sound." She used examples to illustrate how inauthentic sounds created a disconnect with listeners and argued that revealing all shades of emotion, not just positive ones, was the key to genuine connection and success.
Key Points
- Authenticity was described as the most powerful frequency not because of a specific study, but because it represented a pure, unadulterated sound that was in perfect alignment with a person's true feelings.
- The speaker argued that it was not simple to "just be authentic" because most people had layers of "voice masks" and "voice stories" that caused them to cover up, fabricate, or misrepresent their true emotions.
- Misaligned sounds, such as pretending to be excited or fabricating sadness, were said to create a disconnect that repelled listeners because the subconscious mind could detect the inauthenticity.
- The speaker claimed she possessed a unique ability to hear every nuance and shade of feeling in a person's voice, which she called the "seventh layer of sound," allowing her to identify what was real and what was a mask.
- True vocal power and the ability to connect with others came from unearthing these psychological barriers and learning to express the full spectrum of one's emotions, not just a single, fabricated, or socially acceptable one.
