Welcome to episode 72 of my podcast. Today finds me at home, in the sanctuary of my office. In this week's episode, I dive into the whirlwind that is life – juggling work, kids' appointments (including following up on Ellie's orthopedist visit), birthdays, band gigs and prepping for caroling season with my crew, all while carving out precious moments to make music. I also share how the state of the world weighs on me as a creative, and the emotional struggle of balancing authenticity with consideration for others. I dive deeper into the beauty and the struggles of parenting, trying to guide my daughters through the world without dimming their individual sparks. There's a lot on my plate, but amid this beautiful mess, my longing for music creation and production keeps me grounded. This week, I am determined to pour some heart and soul into a song that I've been working on. I'm thrilled you've joined me in this journey and I hope that in the chaos, joy, laughter, and tears of my story, you find something that resonates with you. Whether you're commuting, winding down, or in need of a little ‘me’ time, I invite you to tune in.
