Jana Catharina Schmidt

Great targeted voice coaching.
Has put me on the path to more expression and effectiveness with my voice.

I saw Jana at a workshop and knew straight away that I could learn a lot from her, even though I've been on hundreds of stages myself and am a full-time public speaking coach.

She managed not only to teach me the right technique, but also to really speak from heart to heart with emotion. And that is a skill that cannot be found in any textbook.

When I came to Jana, I also knew that I certainly still had a few blind spots and wanted to continue to improve my effect on stage. I was expecting hours of voice training, which I didn't feel like doing after a week, but then everything turned out differently!

She managed to get the real emotions out of me in short sessions, which now helps me to attract the right clients. She gave me really good feedback consistently and quickly, so that within a very short time I not only improved my performance noticeably, but also measurably.

I am now in a position to appear truly authentic. Before, I was still hiding a little behind my professionalism. Now the two are finally combined and I am extremely grateful to Jana that we have managed to achieve this!

I recommend this coaching to all people who want to have more impact when they speak to people. Whether it's stage appearances, social media videos or the next ad campaign.

A big thank you Jana!

Jana's presence during the online sessions is brilliant. She hears every sound. Every nuance. Feeling. Speak. Moving. Embodying. This is what the essence is all about. Clarity emerges and a new connection to one's own expression. Exactly where I was always running into walls inside, Jana flew over with me. A lively, captivating flow (of emotions, images, words, voice) emerged, from which I had locked myself away. For me, working with Jana is pure liberation of my potential. Getting involved is the bravest thing I can give myself.

Jana is not only an exceptional voice coach, but also an incredible life mentor. Her warm and friendly manner creates an atmosphere of trust and openness in which I immediately felt comfortable and understood. Through her empathetic guidance, I not only improved my voice, but also gained a deeper insight into myself.

Jana has a remarkable ability to recognize through my voice alone what issues and challenges I am dealing with in my life. Her tailored exercises and tips have not only helped me to improve my vocal skills, but have also boosted my confidence and helped me to communicate more clearly and authentically.

Furthermore, Jana goes far beyond the usual by also giving advice for my daily life. Her holistic approach has helped me to speak more consciously and focus on how I am heard and perceived. I am deeply grateful for her support, wisdom and motivation to bring out the best in me.

I highly recommend Jana. She is a true master of her craft and a source of inspiration for personal growth and development.

I completed the voice training with Jana and can only recommend it. It was incredibly helpful in eliminating pronunciation and communication problems that had plagued me for years. I had three consultations three weeks apart, between which I practiced. And it has paid off. I have improved incredibly and sound much better. First we did exercises to technically eliminate bad habits. Then it was about HASI and dealing with emotions. I recommend the training - I'm a new person today

Such an underestimated topic, which Jana conveys in such an easy and motivating way. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for you and your work. 💖🙏🏻🤸‍♀️🚀

I am currently in the application phase for Germany's Next Speaker Star. I met Jana by a wonderful coincidence. Jana is an engaging, very empathetic and inspiring woman. Not only the exercises for the voice training, but also the analysis of my character and my still open points on my way inspired me very much. A few knots were untied in the area of speaking.
I can wholeheartedly recommend Jana ♥️ and am very much looking forward to working with her again!!!

Jana is simply amazing! I've been working on my voice for a long time, I worked in radio for years and have had my own podcast for three years. Accordingly, I have already taken part in numerous voice training sessions. But what I was able to learn from Jana in such a short time is next level and can't be compared to anything else. She is not just about classic voice training. She takes a much more holistic and in-depth approach to the voice. With her, I learned to find my inner voice. I got to know myself properly for the first time and realized that I am at my best when I am myself. Through Jana, I have found a lightness and new joy in my voice and can now appear much more authentic and convincing because I dare to live my true self. I can't put into words how grateful I am that Jana has come into my life and I can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who wants to find and live their true strength! Thank you Jana!!!

Dear Jana!
I am grateful that I was able to get to know you. Your open and lively manner is really good. Especially that I felt understood, without many words...
You showed me that there is another way... there are more people like me who don't need many words to communicate...
Thank you for the great conversations ❤
You empathize and can see so much more....
It's unbelievable what a spoken, improvised text can tell you about a person.
You are like a sun with an expressive voice that knows exactly how to give others, in the truest sense of the word, their voice.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Yesterday I had my last call with dear Jana, which makes me a little sad...She was a lot of fun to work with.
In December I approached Jana with a fear of talking to and in front of people that had been with me since childhood. Jana helped me to find the source of this fear and gave me numerous tools to deal with it in everyday life. What makes Jana's work so special is that she not only does language training, but also works a lot with personal development and helps her coaches to fall in love with their inner and outer voices!!! By working together, I have also learned more self-love and can therefore speak more from my heart. Through Jana I have learned to be my own best friend, for which I am very grateful. Thank you for accompanying and supporting me at the beginning of my journey!🙏🏻🤍

The voice training with Jana has not only helped me a lot in my professional life but also in my private life. Thanks to her tips, which are also very easy to put into practice, I have managed to strengthen my voice and use my self-confidence correctly. I would recommend the training to anyone, especially to people who, like me, have problems speaking and presenting in front of people. Thank you Jana for your support!

Incredible gift to see people! Jana has the gift of making people grow by reflecting what is already there. This clarity is very refreshing and those who can get involved have the opportunity to experience a true transformation with Jana - not only on a vocal but also on a personal level. I wholeheartedly recommend the coaching!

Jana loves what she does and she radiates that. She is such an expert that she can sense the "mood" of the coach right off the bat and then works with you gently and effectively. I love her manner, her expertise and her charisma.

She is super empathetic and sensed exactly what my voice was trying to hide.
And gave great tips on how to deal with it.

Jana Catharina Schmidt is unique, full of energy and so passionate about what she does that I immediately felt I was in the right place. She is dedicated to every minute and her wonderful manner is absolutely inspiring. But what makes her so special is her way of looking behind the façade and solving what lies behind the actual challenge. I am extremely grateful for every minute that I have learned and will continue to learn from her. A huge thank you from the bottom of my heart and a clear recommendation from me.

The course "Strong voice - how to inspire and inspire" has inspired me in the truest sense of the word. I can only recommend it to others. It motivated me to do more for my voice. The great exercises that Jana and Hauke gave us were a great enrichment and helped me to speak from the heart, to fully involve myself and to speak intelligibly and with emotion. Thanks again to you both for being such great companions and for giving us all the information we needed to catapult my voice to a new level.
All the best to you, Claudia

Absolute top recommendation when it comes to voice and mood!

I was with Jana in the 1:1 voice training. Jana not only transformed my voice to a new level, but also deepened my rethoric and my complete awareness of breathing. Through the great routines in everyday life that Jana has given me, it is child's play to use voice and mood consciously.
As a result, I have gained self-confidence, confidence and competence in my external appearance.
And Jana is not only a top professional, but also a human being with a great personality.
Dear Jana, thank you very much!

I had the pleasure of participating in Jana's voice mentoring. It's not just about voice training, it goes much deeper. Jana did a masterful job coaching our group. I was able to notice lasting positive changes not only in myself, but all participants without exception were enthusiastic and were able to take away a lot for themselves. Since I was able to experience Jana live without exception and see what this woman has up her sleeve, I can recommend her without reservation.

Mentoring with Jana includes not only tips on voice training, but also goes deep and moves a lot inside. The voice and personality are strengthened and the authenticity of both is emphasized. It is fun in a group and creates connection. Jana as a voice coach and also her mentoring are absolutely recommendable!
