If heaviness is dragging you down, these live songs and raw stories are here to reignite your inner spark. You don’t need to fix anything…just gently surrender to stories of loss, rebirth, and connection. Here to remind you that joy lives within, waiting to expand when shared!

Welcome back to We Are Already Free, the podcast for us sensitive wanderers, a shared watering hole where we gather to remember our true nature. Please enjoy episode 98.

I open up about shaking off 'shoulds' for authentic flow, then share music from my Songs for Joy gathering: 'Sway With Me' born from grief, 'I Caught On Fire' as a client's heart essence, and 'Everything' as a humming mantra. This medicine invites you to sing, reflect, and remember ancient ways of wellness through dance, silence, stories, and voice.
