My progress
(2021 — 2026)
The five-year gap on the left is easy to hear. The nine-month gap in the middle is the part most people miss — and the part where most people stop. It's still happening.

What I think when I hear my own voice
5 years ago, I sounded like a different person.... Because I was a different person. The progress is obvious and undeniable. The funny part? I thought I was good. And everyone around me at the same told me the same thing.
9 months ago, I sound almost the same as today. I hear the "almost. I can hear my progress and what I've worked on.
Today, I sound different than 5 years or 9 months ago. Don't stop when progress slows. It's still happening. It's just way slower at higher levels. Now imagine I quit 5 years ago..? I would've never discovered what I can sound like.
Press play on any of the three. The others will pause so you can compare them cleanly.
