Inside Out: Accessing Your Inner Voice

On October 17th, I'll be co-leading a workshop called Inside Out: Accessing, Managing, and Employing Your Inner Voices with my friend, colleague, and fellow improviser Dion Flynn. Dion and I will demonstrate and facilitate an improvisational process for deepening our awareness of our inner voices, and for expanding our capacity to "yes-and" ourselves.

Dion is an actor best known for portraying Barack Obama on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. He is also one of Oprah Magazine’s “favorite creative thinkers” and the co-creator of the show?Clanging w/Josh and Dion?(with How I Met Your Mother star, Josh Radnor).?[Cue Kat's inner voices, "How did I get so lucky!?" "Wow, I'm way out of my league!" "Gee, I wonder what will happen - Dion's a dynamo; I never know what to expect!"]

The workshop will delve into an area of fascination for creative people from the time of the earliest Greek drama to recent Pixar animated films: how do we live with, make friends with, control, and manage those ever-present voices inside of us? They compel, motivate, torment, and inspire, while often eluding, our conscious awareness.?[Cue Kat's inner voices, "Too many verbs?"]

As performers and as human beings how can we get better at consciously noticing them in the first place? How can we engage with them beyond simply "managing” them? How can we recognize them as a source of wisdom and inspiration, not just a source of shame and control? Together we will work to access the voices that catalyze our creativity while taming those that constrain us.??

This is going to be a powerful day. If you're in the Schenectady area...join us! [Cue Kat's inner voice, "What if no one shows up?" "What are you kidding? This will be amazing! Of course they'll show up!" "What if we sell out and we have to turn people away..." "Shh...just give 'em the link."]

Accessing my inner voice would make me so strong- I am afraid to let that voice out- it′s unconventional, not scared at all and pretty hippyish. Phew- it's scary to be ourselves in a world where they want us to hate ourselves so we buy more- yet will we ever be congruent and happy if we don′t? See you and Dion Flynn on the 17th at the APPLIED IMPROVISATION NETWORK conference of the year with keynotes Kelly Leonard (He/Him/His) and @Anne libera- who needs to come to my session at the AIN conference on ¨how to make your Linkedin better¨-- I just can′t tag her-- where are you Anne?
