When we commit to bringing our work and ideas to the world, we often start alone. Sometimes, in this new-to-us territory, we realize we would love support and guidance - or more, different, better - and to feel truly seen and heard along the way.
I don’t have all the answers, but I love helping you find yours. We walk through the forest of your experience, and I am not leading - I am often by your side, or behind you, reminding you that I have your back, I know what you’re doing and why, because you tell me in the best way you can, because you feel safe in doing so, because you value clarity, truth, and honesty, and desire to live deeper into that way of being.
Together we learn how to stay steady in your boat by developing your core strength and your toolbox, so that you can steer, navigate and propel, as well as ride the waves, go with the flow, and trust the process. You are finding your own rhythm, and your own way, and I am holding space for you and helping you align with both.
One thing I have learned over 25 years of self-employed creative arts entrepreneurship and teaching: Our growth is not linear. The more we can remain open to the meandering and cyclical ways we evolve and transform, the deeper and more rich our experience. We go deeper, not necessarily farther nor faster. We learn to trust ourselves, especially when we have the time and space to be who we need to be, to have that reflected back to us, to also be reminded who we have always been and how perfectly positioned we are for what is Next.
You already know this - you have done so much, taken so many steps, the big and the small and the easy and the hard, steps that have brought you here, reading these words, looking for healthy ways to trust and be your shining self, to step more into your own transformation and the consequent evolution of your ideas, your work.
If you seek support in starting or continuing a special project, need clarity about where you and your work and ideas want to go, desire a different perspective or lens about what you are doing and why, want to be held accountable when you’ve assumed responsibility for showing up, and want to be deeply heard and held while doing so, please be in touch.
I have an active piano and harp teaching studio, north of Columbus, Ohio and online - we explore style, technique, composition, improvisation, and more.
I use a holistic and often student-directed approach, because it’s not just about what we want to achieve, but who we want to and will become with and through our music.
You are unique, and so is your music experience - we deeply honor this as we work together. Contact me to learn more.
