    Jul 2 2024

    Hey Friend,

    Ahh, yes. The comparison trap. It shows up in all areas of life as human beings, so it’s no surprise that as singers and artists, it has the potential to derail us from even believing our voice is worth sharing.

    But this doesn’t have to be your story. This is a trap that is completely avoidable when you recognize it, see it for what it is, and learn to embrace the beauty of your own unique sound.

    So in today’s episode, I’ll share some words of encouragement and insights that will help you dismantle the lies of the inner critic and come back to the truth of your one-of-a-kind gift ~ your authentic voice.

    Jun 11 2024

    Hey Friend,

    Today I’m talking about that uncomfortable, voiceless place we sometimes find ourselves in when we’re stuck between the old and the new.

    What do you do when you find yourself feeling totally disconnected from things you created in the past, but a bit intimidated to tap into and create from where you are today?

    What do you do when the old way of using your voice, the old music you used to make, the old songs you used to sing ~ just aren’t lighting you up the way they once did?

    If you’re trying to navigate a new phase of your life and you’re wondering what that means for your art, or if you’re feeling a little lost in a season of change, today’s episode is for you!

    I’ll walk you through 3 steps to navigate the “in-between” so you can release the old, embrace the current season you’re in, and ignite that spark of inspiration that will lead you into the next evolution of your creative journey!

    See you there!

  • 5 | Break Free from the Inner Critic & Get Back to the Heart of Singing with this ONE Simple Shift
    Jun 4 2024

    Hey there, Songbird!

    Do you ever feel like you’ve forgotten why you started singing in the first place?

    Like you’ve somehow drifted away from the heart of it all?

    If you’ve found yourself caught up in your head about vocal technique and the inner critic has taken over, this episode is a must listen. Today I’m sharing with you one simple shift in how you think about “performing” that will help you realign with the true meaning of singing, making music, sharing your voice ~ so that singing can feel good again.

    Let today’s conversation be a reminder of your “Why” and a permission slip to take the pressure off of yourself to be “perfect.” Because singing is about so much more than vocal technique and notes on a page.

    It’s time to get back to the heart of it all!
