Your Journey Begins

Welcome to CVPF Level 1

This is not a performance course. It is a presence course. Over six modules, you will move from talking to being perceived β€” developing the awareness, technique, and identity to use your voice with intention in any room, on any call, in any conversation that matters.

Work through each module in sequence. Record yourself. Return to the recordings. Practice daily β€” even five minutes creates measurable change over time.

Recommended Structure

Your Pacing Guide

Each module builds on the last. The space between modules is where transformation actually happens β€” in real conversations, meetings, and moments. Honor the integration time.

Start with Modules 1 + 2

Complete Module 1 (Understanding Vocal Presence) and Module 2 (Physiology of the Voice) back-to-back in your first session. These establish your baseline recordings and foundational breath mechanics.

Begin Here

Integration Window

Before Module 3, allow 4–7 days of real-world practice. Apply breath and body awareness in actual conversations, record yourself daily, and revisit your Module 1 baseline.

Integration Window

Module 3 β€” Vocal Archetype Discovery

Your identity-level module. Discover your default vocal archetype, map your avoidance patterns, and begin expanding your range with intention. Allow 4–7 days after before Module 4.

4–7 Day Gap After

Hybrid Program β€” Schedule Session 1

After completing Module 3, schedule your first private session before moving forward. Bring your archetype recordings and your reflection on your default and avoidance patterns.

β†’ Schedule Session 1

Modules 4 + 5 β€” Control & Clarity

Vocal Control Fundamentals and Eliminating Vocal Leakage. Take each with 4–7 days between them. Track your filler words daily, practice with a metronome, and record before and after every session.

4–7 Days Between Each

Module 6 β€” Integration & Real-Life Application

Hybrid participants: complete Session 2 before beginning this module. Then complete your final recordings, compare to your Module 1 baseline, and submit your certification package.

Certification Submission

Hybrid Program β€” Schedule Session 2 First

Before completing your final module, schedule your second private session β€” your pre-certification coaching call. Bring your Modules 4 and 5 recordings and your biggest remaining challenge.

Course Content

The Six Modules

Module 01 of 06

The CEO SoundLab Methodβ„’

Understanding Vocal Presence

Foundation Baseline Recording Self-Assessment
Objective: Shift identity from talking to being perceived β€” moving beyond simply delivering words and beginning to understand how your voice, body, and energy are received by others.

Complete your baseline recordings (Personal Introduction + Structured Script) before reviewing any rubric. These are your before β€” keep them. You will submit them alongside your Module 6 finals for certification.

Module 02 of 06

The Physiology of the Voice

From Force to Support

Breath Mechanics Nervous System Posture + Alignment
Objective: Move from forcing the voice to supporting the voice β€” understanding that the voice is not created in the throat alone, but is an outward reflection of the body's mechanics.

Practice the Three B's daily: Open the Body Β· Breathe Fully Β· Engage the Belly. Record before and after each exercise session. After this module, allow 4–7 days before beginning Module 3.

Module 03 of 06

Vocal Archetype Discovery

Range, Identity, and Intentional Expression

Module 04 of 06

Vocal Control Fundamentals

Precision, Clarity, and Authority in Speech

Pace Control Pitch + Inflection Tone Quality

Use a metronome app daily. 60–70 BPM = Commander/Observer Β· 70–85 BPM = Connector/Analyst Β· 90–110 BPM = Storyteller. Complete all four workbook exercises and record before and after each. Allow 4–7 days before Module 5.

Module 05 of 06

Eliminating Vocal Leakage

Clean, Clear, and Intentional Communication

Filler Words Upspeak Vocal Fry
Objective: Remove habits that weaken perception β€” identifying and eliminating unconscious vocal patterns that dilute your clarity, credibility, and authority.

Track filler words for one full day. Place a visual reminder at your desk: Pause. Breathe. Speak. After this module, Hybrid participants should schedule Session 2 before beginning Module 6.

Hybrid Program β€” Schedule Session 2 Before Module 6

Your second private session is your pre-certification coaching call. Bring recordings from Modules 4 and 5 and your self-assessments. This session prepares you for your final recordings and certification submission.

Module 06 of 06

Integration and Real-Life Application

Embodied Vocal Presence

Real-World Application Camera Presence Final Recording
Objective: Bring all skills into real-world communication β€” integrating breath, body, voice, and awareness into how you naturally speak in everyday situations.

Complete the Camera Presence Audit. Record your final Personal Introduction and Structured Script. Compare them side-by-side with your Module 1 baseline. Then submit both sets of recordings to jaclynnormandie@gmail.com for your certification evaluation.
