As we reach the end of the year, Heather and Angela sit down for an unscripted, in-person Harpy Chat and reflect honestly on what this year has looked like. Together, they explore what it takes to stay connected to your own harping when work, teaching, and life feel full.

In this episode:

• A real-life round-up of the highs (and challenges) of the past year

• Why personal harping can get harder when you are teaching and creating all day

• How morning harp time, motivation, and guilt show up differently for different people

• Setting realistic hopes and goals for the year ahead, and saying them out loud

• Accountability ideas, including lessons, ensembles, and personal creative projects

If you have been feeling pulled in a hundred directions, this chat will help you pause, reflect, and reconnect with what you want from your harping going into the new year.

Host: Heather Downie - Harpist, Principal Scottish Harp Tutor at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, and founder of How To Harp
