Find your voice

No, I'm not advocating getting loud, unless that's what you want. A writer's 'voice' is a way of looking at her/his style. It's the tone the writer brings to everything, what makes her/him stand out.

It's authenticity at its most elegant.

Yesterday, an interview with Dyana Valentine on White Hot Truth closed with this: "Knowing what I know about myself, my values and goals: how dare I hold back?"

Yeah. The key word there is...well, everything. This is expressing your voice: knowing what you know about yourself, your values, and your goals and committing to them. How dare I stand in my own way?
