Hi Camille,
First of all, you're amazing! I absolutely love the way you teach :)
My question is: how can I find and develop my mix voice? I tend to belt a lot in songs (Demi Lovato, here I come) but I'm only using my chest voice and I can tell it's not good for my vocal cords.
I really struggle understanding what mix voice is and how I can find it. I've done your video on belting but I think I need a bit more info.
Thanks a lot for your help xx

Great question, Juliette! And thank you; glad you're enjoying the lessons.
In addition to the tips below, I encourage you to sing on narrower vowels (think OH instead of YEAH) and include some top-down exercises to start you in a lighter head voice placement (like an 8531 pattern).
