A dynamic, visionary performer, director, and storyteller, Carolyn Thompson’s passion...
Mumblers
Mumblers are never taken seriously. Open your mouth and people will listen.

Cold
Have a cold? Drink warm liquids and rest before you perform.

Mistakes
No one cares about your mistakes more than you.

Mirror
Practice everyday in front of a full length mirror.

Fix
Listen to yourself. Appreciate the good, fix the bad.

Participate
Participate in open mics, karaokes, spoken word, poetry jams and improv.

Bigger
Bigger is better. Don’t hold back!

Thinking
If you’re trying to think of what to say next, then you are not listening.

Teachable
Be teachable.

Listening
Listening is equally as important as singing or speaking. Be teachable!

Don’t Stop
Don’t stop just because you made a mistake. Keep going!

Talent
Everyone has a talent. Many choose to ignore it.

Dance
To loosen up, dance while you practice your song/speech.

Stage Fright
Use stage fright to your advantage. The more scared you are, the bigger you should be.

Exercise
Exercise/energize hours before you perform. Run, swim, yoga etc.

Smile
When you perform, Smile! If you think you’ll look silly then consider what it looks like when when all you do is frown.

Audience
It’s not about you, its about connecting with the audience.

Goals
Stay focused on your goals.

Steam
Practice daily in the shower. The steam helps open up your sinuses.

Wall
You can only teach yourself so much before you hit a wall.

Learn
Be patient with yourself and you will learn faster.

Relax
Relax, slow down, take your time and don’t rush. Less is more!

Smiling
Smiling opens the sides of your mouth and helps with projection.

Humming
Humming is an excellent vocal warm up.

Drink
Drink water. Stay hydrated!

Talking
If you are talking over someone else, then you are not listening.

Message
Focus on the message and stage fright becomes less important.
