Big News to Share!


Hi friends💜,

I am deeply thankful for your support in this world of unrest and division. Today I wanted to make sure you are the first to see my album cover and invite you to my album release concert!

I am so excited (and slightly terrified) to release my debut album and its powerful message of self-worth. To truly claim our worthiness and power we must go deep inside where it is dark to find our inner light. When it seemed like literally everything around me was crumbling, this was all I could do.

And so, this image appeared to me last fall when I was meditating in the middle of a sleepless night. I am deeply grateful to Torey Rohde who came over and brought it to fruition.

Through my membership in the WIM organization, I reached out to a publicist in LA who has worked in the music industry for 17 years and shared my music video. She loved my voice and the video and is very excited to work with me to help me launch my music to a broader audience!

And so, if you are able, I would be honored for you to be a part of a once in a lifetime event where I perform live for the first time all of the original songs on the album on March 23rd at 2pm @ Riverside Theatre in Iowa City. I will share stories behind the songs and the healing journey I undertook to bring this album to fruition.

And if you are not local, I will be releasing my album on streaming the same day so we can all celebrate together💜.

Did you know that artists get .003¢ per stream? New technology has made it possible to self-produce which I am very grateful for, but it takes a village to make it happen! If you are financially able to support this labor of love, I would be so grateful.

Other very important ways to support the project are to connect with me on social media, YouTube and look for my March 1st newsletter where I will share my full official music video and link to pre-save my release on your streaming platform and spread the word.

Again, I cannot say how grateful I am to you and I am sending you love and light in this broken, beloved world💜.


PS. If you are local, I would be deeply honored to spend time with you in these local events coming up.

Dear friends💜, I hope this finds you enjoying some peace today soaking in the last of “summer” before we plunge into the busy, often exhausting season that September brings—with new school years, agendas, and programming. Light-filled, relaxing days are slowly waning, and I feel the pull of the earth’s energy—the anticipation and hurried preparation for the harvest. Last weekend, I hosted my first Vocal Empowerment overnight retreat at Prairiewoods Spirituality Center. It was an INCREDIBLE...

Dear friends💜, I am sending you lots of love and light today! Summer always seems to disappear so quickly when all I want to do is sit in the sun and let it sink into my bones. A few days ago it was my birthday. Usually, the day is full of heat and sun at the end of July but this time it started with a gentle thunderstorm and brought blessed cool, cloudy weather to replace an intense heat wave in the Midwest. Being a Leo, I have relied on the shining sun to fuel my days and when the day is...

Dear friends💜, It is July! I am partial to this month—not only because my birthday rounds it out, but also because I love the sun, the warmth, and the vivid green that stretches for miles and miles, field after field. I always think the green in Iowa in July, before the corn tassels, is like an ocean rolling in the wind—or as close as a Midwesterner can get :) I’ve had some time this month to rest and explore what my body is trying to teach me, which was much needed. I’ve been working through...
