Oh Michael it just occurred to me.... pretend you're about to kiss
the baby on the cheek, then make a small buzzing sound by
allowing a tiny amount of air to flow.
Of course you can only do this from the 'breath support
system." and it should never be a large sound, merely mobile.
Do this for 5 or 10 minutes as you drive to work then see what
it does for your speaking voice. Hear that lovely onset???? :)
