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.

If you are able to financially help me share my musical message of healing and empowerment with the world, I would be so... Read more

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💜, Happy May Day! Did you know the old Celtic name for May Day is Beltane which is derived from Gaelic meaning 'Bel-fire', the fire of the Celtic god of light? I remember in my young childhood decorating little green plastic strawberry containers with my mother to make May baskets full of homemade goodies for our neighbors. Spring is so full of light, hope, new life and aching beauty. In Iowa, this week feels like the essence of spring. Brilliant blossoms contrasted with crisp...

Dear friends💜, I am sending you a warm hug from Iowa:) The spring equinox has passed and suddenly there is more light than dark. I don't know about you, but anxiety often rises in me during spring. I can't quite pinpoint its root, but it seems to be linked with all of the growing energy building and swirling around me. Shoots of grass, daffodils, buds on the trees, little leaves on the lilac bush, birds singing loudly... combined with the surge of pollen that reminds me that I have asthma....

Dear friends💜, I hope this letter finds you safe and warm. So much change, division, unrest, hate and misunderstanding abound, and when I get overwhelmed with life, I simply have to rest. John O'Donohue, one of my favorite authors, says something along the lines of when you have been running at too fast a pace, you must rest to let your soul catch up with your body. I have to remember that often because I tend to sprint one day and crash the next. My heart is full of so many emotions these...
