Strengthen your magnetism, and make a more meaningful impact in every interaction with Vocal Awareness® — a comprehensive method of communication that involves mastery of vocal techniques, strategies, skills, and rituals that will help you improve your vocal presence and claim your authentic voice.
Embody the highest essence of your true Self to inspire excellence for your Self and others as an influential community member and leader.
What makes the voice such a powerful vehicle for self-discovery?
Achieving mastery over your vocal expression puts you in touch with your deeper self, and helps you gain greater confidence, sovereignty, authenticity, and empowerment...
... while at the same time making you a more impactful, compelling, intentional, and purpose-driven communicator.
According to one of the world’s leading authorities on the healing and influential potential of the human voice, Arthur Samuel Joseph, your voice offers a way to understand your true Self — mind/body/spirit — and enhance your personal and leadership presence and success.
As a child, Arthur discovered that he heard vocal sounds differently from others. He didn’t just hear the pitch, tone, and melody of the voice, he actually heard and felt the emotion within the voice. In other words, when Arthur listens to people’s voices, he hears who they are at the core of their being.
Arthur’s goal for the last six decades has been to help all those he works with achieve their own enlightenment... enjoy their own empowerment... claim their vocal power... and embody the highest essence of who they are in everything they do.
His vision is to change the world through voice.
Arthur can help you achieve full conscious awareness and communication mastery, so you can truly maximize your potential and fulfill your goals.
He’s trained and worked with several well-known celebrities, including Tony Robbins, Dwayne Wade, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, Magic Johnson, Angelina Jolie, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Pierce Brosnan, Sean Connery, Sally Field, a US Senator, a presidential candidate, Olympic gold medalists, Hall of Fame athletes, and other luminaries, from the boardroom to stage and screen. Arthur has also had opportunities to work with Holocaust survivors, train deaf people to sing, and more.
Now you have a rare opportunity to be among the first to join Arthur in his inaugural Shift Network course! This brand-new, 7-week live video course offers an exclusive chance to learn his breakthrough method, Vocal Awareness®, directly from the master himself.
It’s designed to teach communication mastery through highly specific techniques, vocal warm-ups, and storytelling skills — such as “Love & Let Go,” “Visceral Language,” and “The Body Speaks”— to learn how to infuse mind/body/spirit consciousness in every breath and every spoken word.
As you learn these transformational tools, you’ll gain a deep understanding of how your vocal ability can elevate your sense of self and higher purpose — strengthening your confidence and your capacity to inspire your Self and others more effectively than ever before.
Through a variety of experiential exercises, you’ll learn how to align your inner Self with your outward expression, resulting in true confidence, resilience, authenticity, and the empowering capacity to navigate challenges with clarity and purpose.
Whether you long to communicate more heartfully, honestly, and effectively with your loved ones, or you want to increase your positive impact and influence when speaking in front of groups at your job, vocation, or as part of your community advocacy... you’ll develop the tools you need to express your Self meaningfully, connect with others on a deeper level, and lead with integrity and presence in all areas of your life.
One of the key practices you’ll explore is the “7 Rituals of Vocal Awareness,” a series of exercises designed to align your voice with your mind/body/spirit. Each of these rituals holds the key to a unique aspect of your vocal expression and personal empowerment.
Through this and many other skills, techniques, and practices , you’ll develop a new level of presence, mindfulness, and dynamism in every interaction, as Arthur shows you how to control your narrative and the way you’re known and perceived by others — so you have a greater possibility of using your personal power and excellence for good.
During this inspiring program, you’ll:
- Discover vocal skills that will support you not only in what you do, but also in who you are
- Cultivate conscious awareness, presence, and authenticity in every interaction
- Bolster your capacity to show up with determination, grit, and a commitment to excellence wherever you are, in whatever you’re doing, with whomever is in your company

- Expand your innate ability to connect with your Self and others on physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual levels
- Safely and meticulously release lifelong blocks that have inhibited you from living your life in an authentic and leaderful way
- Break free of self-doubt and uncertainty, and unlock the wisdom and guidance that resides within you
- Learn how to step into your personal sovereignty through a more empowered stature and intentional breathing, while connecting with your inner source of strength and authority
- Understand the importance of pitch, pace, and breath in your communication and how they serve to change people’s perceptions of you
- Experience the power of Visceral Language — “making voice more visual” so it conveys the integrity and emotion of everything you say
- Craft a compelling Persona Statement — a powerful declaration of your core values and aspirations that reflects how you want to be known everywhere you go
- Write a clear and evocative Vision Statement to vocalize your aspirations and guide your actions toward your desired outcomes
- Develop an appreciation for the sound of your own voice
- And much more...
As you’ll discover, Vocal Awareness goes way beyond traditional voice training to encompass the holistic integration of mind/body/spirit. Arthur’s method is rooted in the understanding that the voice is not just a tool for communication, but also a gateway to your innermost Self — and a channel for spiritual expression.
You’ll learn how to imprint your true Self on your mind/body/spirit, so you can be the best of who you are — choosing, moment by moment, to embody the most empowered version of your Self in every conversation and every action — by enhancing your energy and vibration through the power of your voice.
You’ll emerge from this course ready to embrace your full potential and stand out as a dynamic and influential leader in your life and your field, with the enhanced ability to artfully engage and inspire others.
You’ll cultivate a mindset of dedication, integrity, and boldness, driving meaningful change and achieving extraordinary results as you realize your vision and leave a lasting legacy of excellence everywhere you go.

Module 5: Using Your Personal & Professional Communication & Presentations as a Means to Dynamically Express Your True Essence (August 7)
For the success of anything you do — in your life or your career — the quality of your communication and how you lead is important. As Arthur says, “It’s not just the message, but the messenger that matters.”
During this module, you’ll learn one of the single most important communication techniques you’ll ever need to know: Visceral Language — how to make voice visual to convey the emotional depth of your words. This is one of the trademark elements of Vocal Awareness...
... and it will help you infuse your presentations — in your personal and professional life — with authenticity, presence, and spiritual resonance, creating profound shifts in both your Self and your audience.

Module 6: The Performance of True & Sovereign Expression — An Opportunity to Fulfill Your Vision (August 14)
Because someone is watching or listening, all communication — whether on the phone, in meetings, deep conversations, or casual encounters — is somewhat of a performance.
“Performance” doesn’t mean inauthentic, inappropriately manipulative, or contrived. In fact, the root of the word means, in part, “to carry out, fulfill, and to do.”
When you indefatigably hold your Self accountable for being and doing your best wherever you speak, you’re embodying sovereignty — meaning “supreme excellence or an example of it.”
In this module, you’ll learn that the performance moment is another conscious opportunity for you to energetically and vibrationally convey who you really are. It’s an opportunity to carry out and fulfill your vision for your Self, your community, or your project. It’s an extraordinarily empowering experience to own your voice. Because in Vocal Awareness, Arthur says, “the same person shows up everywhere.”
In this class, you’ll:
- Learn to authentically express the essence of your soul in every communication, infusing your words and gestures with the energy of your higher consciousness
- Cultivate a deeper sense of presence and mindfulness in your communication, connecting to your higher consciousness and allowing it to flow through you effortlessly
- Discover the language of the soul and learn to speak it fluently through your voice, conveying its deepest truths and insights to others with clarity and resonance
- Begin the journey of spiritual mastery through communication and performance, aligning your Self with the wisdom and guidance of your higher consciousness and allowing it to guide your every word and action
Module 7: Journeying Inward to Engage Mindful Leadership, Fulfill Your Vision & Achieve Your Purpose (August 21)
To be audacious, bold, intrepid, and fearlessly daring, you must first believe in your own potential. You have to claim your Self. And to achieve your purpose in the world, you must surrender, serve, soar.
During this closing module, you’ll learn how to be audacious, earnest, passionate, and consummately committed to leading and inspiring your Self, your family, friends, community, and the world. You’ll learn ways to strive every day to fulfill your vision, knowing that the journey is never outside your Self. Rather, it’s always and only inward toward the discovery of the deeper Self.
In this final session, you’ll:
- Explore the concept of hubris and how it shapes effective communication, leadership, and personal growth
- Learn how to wholeheartedly dedicate your Self to fulfilling your goals and vision, aligning your actions and intentions with your deepest aspirations
- Recognize that to achieve excellence, you must be willing to leap into the unknown, embracing challenges and opportunities with courage and determination
