Welcome to another episode of Your Creative Chord Podcast! In this episode, I share my personal journey of overcoming obstacles while juggling multiple roles and caring for my 84-year-old Mom. I explore the power of embracing and sharing our struggles as a way to practice authenticity and self-compassion.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • How sharing mistakes and failures can deepen our connections with others and inspire more authentic interactions.
  • Insights from Louise Penny’s book inspired by Leonard Cohen’s lyric, illustrating the beauty found in imperfection.
  • The impact of resilience and persistence through personal anecdotes and the metaphor of a determined little girl trying to mount a pony.
