Voice has changed significantly without voice training?
Weird post, but recently I’ve had some friends tell me that my voice sounds really good and that it sounds “passing”. I find this hard to believe since my voice has always been deep, but I did a voice recording and I sound completely different. An audio clip I took back in 2024 sounds noticeably different, and I’ve had coworkers say things like, “I thought your voice used to be deeper.” I find this really hard to believe, and I can’t tell if they’re just being nice.
I do raise my larynx when talking, but I only realized I was doing that after watching a video a few days ago.
I guess my question is: is it possible to have a “passing voice” without any voice training?
Edit: I have noticed I’m gendered as female most of the time when on the phone so maybe it’s the audio compression that’s helping?
