What’s in a Sound

I’ve lost my Voice. Literally and Metaphorically. The irony is I spent years trying to find, develop and ultimately share it.

This journey of finding value in my voice, started in university. I learned how to deconstruct the world around me in very concrete, creative, and effective ways. I was rewarded for using my . . . → Read More: What’s in a Sound

It’s O.K.

I love Buffy Sainte-Marie’s song “It’s OK, we’re just in kindergarten”.  Her vibrato soothes my heart-open when I need help to get “un-angry” and release judgment.  I find my anger sparked when I hear the words: “you created your own reality” voiced with a closed heart and a know-it-all attitude, guised as . . . → Read More: It’s O.K.
