SINGING LESSONS:

  1. We’re designed to be creative.
  2. The audience isn’t there to validate you.Your creative flow is your life force; is your giving to the world; is your joy of existence.
  3. If you are in line with your integrity, you will meet high standards. When you’re trying to be a perfectionist, you’ll  never be good enough.
  4. The ideas in our head of perfection are not our ideas of perfection. They are the outside voices so internalized, we think that it’s us. Your impulse, your taste, what ignites you, that’s all internal.
  5. We don’t ever want to forget the why of what we do.
  6. You are your north star. Your decisions should align with you and your integrity.
  7. Humanity needs to be more important than celebrity, power, and money.
