Speak Like It Matters Podcast
Welcome to Speak Like It Matters (formerly Visionary Voice) — the podcast for courageous, purpose-driven leaders who want to communicate with clarity, confidence and credibility.
I’m Csilla Muscan, public speaking coach, storyteller, and the creator of the 'You Are The Message' framework.
Here’s the deal: If you want to be the kind of speaker who leads with clarity, connects with depth, and actually gets remembered—you’re in the right place.
This isn’t about fluffy pep talks or recycled TEDx tips.
This is about building a message that resonates, a presence that commands, and a voice that leads—whether you're speaking on stage, on camera, or in a client conversation.
If your message feels unclear, your delivery falls flat, or you're tired of blending in with the sea of “experts” out there, this show will help you sharpen your voice and show up like it matters.
🎯 New episodes weekly.
🎙️ Practical tools. Real stories. Honest conversations.
Let’s turn your voice into your greatest leadership asset.
Ready to speak with impact? Hit play—let’s get to work.

The Speaker’s Code (Part 1): Drop the Act. Find Your Presence.
Are you performing… or actually leading when you speak?
(And no — I don’t mean Broadway-level jazz hands. I mean that subtle, exhausting need to sound polished, perfect, and “on” every second you're on stage.)
If your speaking feels a little too rehearsed, a little too robotic, and your audience still isn’t responding the way you hoped, this episode might be the slap-in-the-face clarity you didn’t know you needed.
In this first episode of my 3-part series The Speaker’s Code: The Real Rules of Speaking That Actually Matter, we’re unpacking what really separates forgettable presenters from those magnetic, trusted voices who move rooms (and markets).
You’ll learn:
- The real difference between presence and performance (and how to know which one you’re doing)
- The well-meaning “rules” that are secretly sabotaging your connection
- How to use The Power Triad to instantly elevate your authority
- What audiences actually remember (hint: it’s not your polished presence)
By the end of this episode, you’ll know exactly what performative habit to ditch this week so you can show up more powerfully — and more like you.
Because here’s the deal: Your message isn’t meant to be performed.
It’s meant to be felt, trusted, and acted on.
