In this episode of The Music of Life, I’m flipping the script! Instead of hosting, I had the incredible opportunity to be a guest on Side Quest Success Stories with host Stephen Duetzmann. I share why I started this podcast, my personal journey through a toxic divorce, and the intense spiritual healing that followed. I share how this podcast became a platform for healing—not just for me, but for others navigating similar experiences. Stephen and I also talk about the power of storytelling through podcasting, the importance of community, and what’s next for The Music of Life as I move beyond my divorce and into a new chapter of growth and transformation.
