Tina Bakehouse S3E145

Intuitive communications coach Tina Be Bakehouse shares how, drawing on theatre, storytelling, and a spiritual lens, she helps people speak in ways that truly resonate and connect. Bakehouse also shares coming into her own truths around sexual identity, faith, and personal healing that has transformed the way she works, lives, and shows up in the world.

Bakehouse helps heart-centered leaders move beyond performance into presence. Drawing on over 25 years in communication, theatre, and teaching, she guides clients to tune into body, breath, and voice so they can clarify their message and speak with grounded confidence. Her work blends skill, play, and spirituality—shaped by university teaching, storytelling and improv, and training in holistic approaches to the whole person. A two-time TEDx speaker, Leadership Iowa alum, former Walt Disney cast member, and author of Discovering Our Magnetic Speaker Within, Tina empowers people not just to speak, but to resonate—because your voice is not only how you’re heard, it’s how you’re felt.

About your host

Profile picture for stuart chittenden

stuart chittenden

I'm Stuart Chittenden—an existential coach, Certified Humanist Professional, and the creator and host of Lives Radio Show & Podcast. My work centers on helping people explore who they are, what matters most, and how to live well in a world that often rushes past those questions.

Throughout my journey—from law in London to brand strategy and community dialogue in the American Midwest—I’ve always been drawn to what lies beneath: the quiet, often unspoken work of making meaning. Lives is one of the most enduring expressions of that calling. For over eight years, I’ve invited guests from all walks of life into deep, human conversations about identity, purpose, and how we shape—and are shaped by—our stories.

Whether through coaching, workshops, or the microphone, I create space for reflection, connection, and the rich conversations that help us live more fully.
