• 17 | Finding Your Voice & Confidence Begins with this ONE Simple (and Fun!) Practice
    Aug 27 2024

    Finding your voice is a journey ~ whether we’re talking about your singing voice or your authentic self-expression as a whole.

    As you set out to explore and discover the truth about who you are, how you were designed, what makes you unique, what makes you just as human as the rest of us, and how you’re called to use your voice in the world, you will inevitably be asked to step outside of your comfort zone and face the unknown.

    In today’s episode, we’re discussing this step, taking the risk to travel beyond what is known and opening up to what isn’t. Finding your voice. Finding the courage to step outside of your comfort zone and into the unknown. And how this applies to your singing practice.

    Because there is this beautiful phenomenon that occurs when seeking to find your singing voice ~ you actually find so much more.

  • 15 | Take Your Creative Passion Project Off the Back Burner: 5 Steps to Begin (Again) for Female Singers, Songwriters, Musicians
    Aug 13 2024

    Hey Friend,

    Do you have a creative passion project? You know... the one that’s been sitting on the back burner, collecting dust, waiting for the right time to begin again? The one that’s been on your heart for quite some time now, but you keep pushing it aside for someday? Yeah, that one… I know because I have one, too!

    Well, what would it be like to take it off the back burner and bring it into focus, into the foreground, and simply begin? Or begin again? Or just to get moving in that direction, gain some momentum, breathe new life into your sails?

    If there has been something on your heart that you’re wanting to create, my hope is that today’s episode will serve as a catalyst for you to get moving again. I pray that it will leave you with the inspiration you need to take that creative passion project of yours off the back burner so you can begin again with a renewed sense of vision, clarity, and strategy to make it happen.

  • 14 | Calm Your Nerves Before Singing for Others with this Step-by-Step Grounding Practice
    Aug 6 2024

    Hey Friend!

    In the moments leading up to sharing your voice and singing for people, there can be a lot of noise going through your mind as the butterflies take over and the nerves set in. It’s almost enough to keep you from doing it at all ~ if you let it. But if you can move past that fear and sing through it, you’ll rediscover your love of singing and find the joy in doing what you love, sharing your gift with others, and expressing your heart through your voice.

    That’s why I’m sharing my personal grounding practice in today’s podcast episode ~ it’s a simple process to move through those anxious thoughts and the sensations they create in the body before stepping on stage and opening your mouth to sing. I’ll walk you through 6 steps, from backstage, through walking on stage, and into those first few notes and beyond. Because the truth is ~ once you get up there, and get into the zone, and really let go… there is nothing like the feeling of singing your heart out!

    So whether you dream of performing live on a big stage or you just want to record a new song to share online, this grounding practice will help you calm your nerves and find that inner sense of peace before opening your heart, opening your mouth, and sharing your voice ~ in whatever form that takes (virtual / live / recorded, etc.).

    I pray this blesses you!

  • 13 | Burned Out & Uninspired? 10 Ways to Get Back into Creative Flow for Female Singers & Songwriters
    Jul 30 2024

    Hey Friend!

    As much as we would love to live in a state of constant creative flow, the reality is that we can often lose touch with our inspiration. We can easily find ourselves distracted, stagnant, losing sight of why we started something in the first place, stuck in a rut of apathy or boredom.

    If you’ve been feeling like your creative flame has dimmed, or you’re hitting your head against a wall anytime you go to sing and make music and create, perhaps you’re in need of a little creative revitalization.

    In today’s episode, I’ll share 10 of my favorite ways to rekindle that creative spark and get back into flow whenever you feel that passion start to fade. Take what works for you, add it to your artist’s toolkit for moments when you need a little boost, and before you know it, you’ll find yourself back on track to creating the art that is yours alone to create.

    Do you sometimes question whether or not you can call yourself a singer?

When you’re going through a creative dry spell, or a period of not performing, or if you have the desire to sing but have yet to allow yourself to pursue that dream, this “imposter syndrome” can be so debilitating.

    In today’s episode, we’re going deeper into artist identity and the importance of nurturing your desire to sing so that you can get beyond the mind games of the inner critic and start moving towards the desires of your heart. I’ll share with you 3 steps to work through this question of identity and embrace the artist within ~ the part of you that is longing to sing and create something meaningful.

    See you inside!

    Hey there, Friend!

    In today’s episode, I guide you through a step-by-step creative exercise to help you heal your relationship with your singing voice.

By tapping into the natural healing power of your voice, your internal compass can lead you to heal the wounds from past experiences and release the self-criticism that may have caused you to stop singing, shut down your voice, or hold it all in.

    In 5 steps, I’ll show you how to harness the power of your creativity to unearth and release the blockages that are keeping your voice locked up.

    Let’s dive in!
