    Today’s episode is all about Vocal Embodiment. What it is, what it means as both a singer and as an artist, and how to achieve it. I’ll share with you 3 phases to bring the music inside of you into the world through your voice ~ not only becoming the embodiment of the music itself through your singing voice, but also becoming the embodiment of the dreams and vision you have for yourself as an artist and singer.

  • 24 | Building Resilience as a Singer: How to Get Back Up & Sing Again After You Fall
    Oct 15 2024

    Have you ever had a performance where everything went wrong? Or where one thing didn’t go well, but that’s the part you remember and so it just feels like the whole thing was a complete train wreck?

    Have you ever received negative feedback after sharing your voice and singing your heart out and it left you feeling beaten down, wounded and timid, unable to ever sing again?

    I know I’ve experienced both of these throughout my vocal journey.

    In today’s episode, I’ll share a couple of those stories with you and I’ll also talk about how I was able to get back up and keep singing after what may have seemed like failure, rejection, or just an embarrassing mistake that shook my confidence.

    As singers, we must learn how to build resilience and develop a thick skin without building walls around our heart… because it is the beautifully vulnerable heart that creates real connection when we sing. So let’s talk about finding that balance and finding the courage to get back up after we fall so we can sing again.

  • 23 | Beating Yourself Up for All Those Unfinished Songs? Why Your Unused Ideas Are Vital to the Creative Process!
    Oct 8 2024

    Hey Friend,

    In today’s episode we’re gonna talk about all those unfinished songs and unused ideas that may or may not be piling up in scattered places throughout your mind, your computer, your phone notes, your journals, scraps of paper, bits of recordings... aaahh, yes. Such is the way of the creative spirit!

    You see, I've recently had a perspective shift around this ~ from beating myself up for all that I've left unfinished, to embracing the nature of the creative process ~ and I’m here today to share that with you.

    I'll also give you a little window into how I use writing and journaling to work through the noise of the inner critic and reconnect with my heart.

    My mission for this episode is really just to encourage you and give you some perspective on the creative process and why it’s OKAY that some of your ideas have gone idle or dormant ~ so you can stop with all the internal criticism and instead, embrace your beautiful, wild and creative mind!
