Happy August Soul Artist!
How are you feeling about this new month?
For some, I know, thinking about the whole month is overwhelming. And there is some truth to that! I am a fan of focusing on the present! :) But for me it’s easy to overlook the whole month and stay present. I’ve wrestled with my relationship with music and I like to say that I made it through.
Everything is easier said than done.
Why is it that I am here, but other’s aren’t?
Or they are somewhere in the middle.

There may not be this built in room for you to do this hobby, for you to sing, to play guitar because you spent hours studying for this test, so that you can do this career that will give you the financial security and safety that you will have. That is the truth for a lot of people.
Where’s your true ownership.

But where do we give up and allow this system and exhaustion and pain and fear and guilt and shame and rejection and just not enough time, hours in the day, and energy to be able actually feed ourselves the thing that makes us feel alive the most.
As always our core values are Vulnerability, Imperfections, Empathy, and Being Seen.
