Her Own Truth. How to Turn Your Voice into an Instrument and Be Yourself

Fern Cotton's voice has been heard by millions, whether on television, radio, or her popular podcast Happy Place. Voice is her work, source of income, and a way to connect with her audience and like-minded people. So when doctors told Fern that she might need surgery on her larynx, after which she wouldn't be able to speak for two weeks, it led her to unexpected and quite serious reflections.

Reflecting on the prospect of silence, Fern began to recall other situations when her voice went unheard against the backdrop of other, louder and more dominant voices. She started to ask herself questions. When do we stop saying what we think and feel? When do we start stepping on our own throats? Why do we prefer to remain silent to please someone at the cost of our own mental well-being and happiness?

In this bold, candid, and deeply personal book, Fern answers such questions, shares her compelling story, and tells how to find your own voice and use it with confidence.
