EP#48 Rediscovering the Joy of Music and Songwriting Through Community

Rediscovering the Joy of Music and Songwriting Through Community

In this episode, I share my personal journey of seeking financial support to really go for it with my music dreams, only to realise that what I truly needed was to reconnect with the joy of making music. 

I took a break, lost touch with my creativity, but then I had a brilliant idea – running a songwriting retreat. I organised my first retreat in 2019, and it turned out to be a transformative experience, reigniting my passion for songwriting and music! 

Now, I run a business helping others find joy in their music and songwriting journeys.. listen in for how YOU can get involved.
