“If we would only listen with the same passion
that we feel about needing to be heard” – Harriet Lerner

Listening – A sound basis for healthy relationships
Even before COVID – 19 became a pandemic, musician and sound-healing coach Daniel Barber designed a free online summit — “Your Music, Your Way”. He interviewed 30 different leaders, musicians, healers speaking on the topic of navigating mystery through improvising with sound — including me.
Based on the suggestion from a mutual friend, Daniel asked to interview me for this summit. My first response was, “What could I contribute to this topic that would be helpful or meaningful; especially given I’m not a musician or an expert on sound?” That was fear speaking and it felt BIG. Then it dawned on me. I am being asked to find courage in the face of fear; we all are. Choosing courage in the face of doubt or difficulty has guided me well through many life challenges. Courage helps me listen and guide patients effectively; whether its helping them to change their diet or lifestyle; look deeper; or let go in order to improve their own health and well being.
As I spent time exploring this topic of music, it became apparent that it would be best to speak about something I’m passionate about and experienced with — deeply listening to our relationship with ourselves, each other and the natural world. Through the process of preparing for and giving this interview, I began to claim my own music and appreciate how we all are musical, in our own way. Little did I realize that 1 month later, a veil that’s been hiding our fears would be lifted all over the globe would. We would be asked to pause and listen more deeply than perhaps we ever have before. I pray that we will use this opportunity to better tune ourselves as a species and make music together moving forward with life. No doubt, we are interdependent.
I invite you to listen to a talk I gave Tuesday, March 17, 2020. Its a bit long (almost 90 minutes) so you may want to settle in with a cup of tea or listen while weeding your garden. Please, don’t miss the poignant story I share at the end of the interview – hopefully its worth the wait.
With heart,
