We Are Alive! (Playlist 5)

It took me six months to curate this playlist. I felt a new emotion with every month. At first it was overwhelming, but it’s because I focused on the expectation versus the intention. Why place pressure on myself and others to measure up to a fantasy, when instead I can focus on the freedom of fulfilling my purpose? You can offer leading roles to those you love, but you can’t control how the storyline of your life will play out. This playlist captures my transition from loving within moments to finding comfort in consistency. By surrounding myself around people that stay true to their character, I can be open to feeling however I feel. Hope you enjoy!

We Are Alive! (Playlist 14)

This quarantine has given me the opportunity to take my time and not feel pressured to force or rush my creative process. Moving like this has allowed me to filter out the energy that wasn’t previously necessary in my life.  Playlist no.17 is centered around the process of healing and spending time with ourselves. 

We joke about talking to ourselves (especially as independent creatives), but I think it's something we can practice more often and speak openly about.  I don’t think it matters how long you've known someone, they could never truly know you like YOU know you. Every day brings new emotions and our approach to how we tackle each of them is different.  You can write it out, talk it through, create music, or simply be still and listen. Let the time you’ve been working hard for finally arrive. Your future will appreciate the work you’ve put into your present. 

Hopefully, the music in this playlist can be the soundtrack to your peace of mind. Enjoy!

We Are Alive! (Playlist 17)

How would you define worthiness at this very moment? My definition of worth has evolved simply within these past few months. I’ve asked myself, more directly, am I worthy? 

Someone recently asked me if I’m worthy. I couldn’t answer. Since then, I’ve been trying to get to the root of what worth means to me. 

I ask myself questions once a day: Am I worthy? For love, for loyalty, for honesty, for respect, for family, for companionship? I think I am, but it’s a constant process that I have to figure out every single day. How do I feel more worthy naturally?  How do I repair the relationships that I have with my family & friends for me to trust myself? How do I deal with childhood trauma tied to abandonment?

One thing I have realized though, is that figuring out my worthiness is a work in progress.
