“Working with Cari is the single most influential choice I have made on my path to becoming a professional recording artist. When I’m feeling at all sub-par, Cari has a natural solution and remedy to solve the problem, whether that’s a homeopathic medicine or she gets into the root of my tension with a vocal massage, or we venture into emotions, she always has a holistic solution. When I started working with her I expected to improve vocally, but I got so much more than I bargained for. She is a friend, a mentor and her steadfast commitment has changed my course as an artist for the better.”

“Cari, I think what you are doing is just absolutely phenomenal. You are helping so many people, not just with their voices and artistry but with their humanity and I can’t thank you enough. It’s very powerful. I would just cry in voice lessons and hardly sing at all. I’m glad I stopped wasting money on lessons a long time ago when I realize I had to do the inner work first. Thank you for even taking the time to talk about it because most people gloss over it and it’s an important teaching. I’m beyond grateful for the opportunity to learn and grow with you. Thank you sincerely.”
MARIA SCHIRIPPA
singer-songwriter, performer, recording artist
“I had always taken my voice for granted, until for the first time I couldn’t sing or speak without constant pain, tension and fatigue. After months of research, going to doctors and specialists, I came across an articles “How to Clear Up a Blocked Throat Chakra” by Cari Cole. Little did I know discovering Cari’s approach was about to change my life and help me get my voice back. The final step for me was discovering the emotional trauma that was at the root cause of my vocal issues. This was the piece that no one had even addressed until Cari. I finally felt that someone cared enough to truly “see” me. I am so incredibly grateful for all of the work, heart and soul – and belief – put into helping me.”
JESSIE RIEMANN
singer, songwriter, performing artist

JAVIER BRACAMONTE

“Cari’s holistic vocal therapy and approach should be in every singer’s tool box! Before I was introduced to her vocal therapy, I was struggling with vocal tension and going hoarse after singing. Enter Cari Cole and her wisdom. Being led by her I was able to regain my voice back to it’s full potential. I feel more confident with my singing and speaking voice than ever before! Thank you Cari Cole!“
