Welcome to Live Well, I'm your host, McKenzie Kappa, and on this podcast we focus on a lot of life's logistics, like planning and wellness, along with some fun things like skincare and reading.

And overall, we just throw in a whole lot of life.

Around here, we know that life is messy, but we're just doing our best to learn how to live

well anyway.

So join me on this journey as we figured out together.

And just to get us started, I'll go first.

And this week, I'm really going first because it's a topic that I never

thought I would be like someone that people would go to about. But apparently I am because I am a

voice actor. And so a lot of people ask me how to make sure they're not losing their voice,

especially during sickness season. When everybody starts

coming down with colds and kids are bringing things home from school and all of that junk,

I get a lot of questions about, ah, my kid is sick or I'm getting sick and I don't want to lose my

voice. What do I do? And while these aren't like a total fail safe, sometimes it does happen.

For the past couple of years that I've been practicing more of these types of things, I have been doing better and not getting as sick as frequently and also being able to keep from completely losing my voice generally. So I decided no better time than heading into the fall when everybody's starting to be

subjected to all of these germs to be looking at some of my best practices and just give you guys

some ideas for how you can get away with hopefully not losing your voice this winter. And just to

make it even easier for you guys, I put together a

throat care PDF. So it's got all of these different ideas plus some more ideas. It's got

checklists, links, all kinds of things that are going to be packed into this PDF that you can get

if you subscribe to the newsletter. So you can head over to mackenziecopa.com slash news where you can subscribe, get all

the other freebies that subscribers get like a Trelloboard template and our file challenge guide
