Carol Jacks’ introduces the tool kit:

“Well, I'm here to tell you you're not alone. My name is Carol Jack and I started my first band, directed my first choir session and trained as a vocal coach in my 40s - and I have no intention of slowing down more than 10 years later. Why should you?

“I'm excited to invite you to the 40+ Female Singers' Toolkit. From Monday 13 June I will share my interviews with 16 amazing experts who will give you tools and strategies to navigate this ever-changing world and to - according to one of my guests - TAKE BACK THE MiC!!”
