Does music move you? Does it hit you in the right spot at exactly the right time? Do you believe that the universal connection of music holds the power to heal the collective, to bond us together regardless of race, gender, or political affiliation? Ginny and Amanda do! And so does their special guest Patrick Thrasher.
Ginny and Amanda had the pleasure of speaking with Patrick Thrasher for their first guest interview (and first video—check it out on YouTube!). Their insightful conversation explores the power of music to bridge our divided society and bring healing to the collective.
They also discuss:
- Music as a form of therapy
- Patrick's eclectic range of guests on his podcast Let's Talk With Patrick, and his mission to unify people through talking about mental health, especially as it relates to men.
- Favorite songs that evoked emotion, impacted, and inspired each of them at different times of their lives; Amanda's story of a song that saved her life not once but twice.
- Ginny and Patrick's days of making and playing music with other musicians, and the energetic connection found in collaboration that is unlike any feeling they've experienced.
- How collaborating on music is one antidote to depression caused by isolation.
- The necessity of music makers to create original, meaningful music as a pathway to bring authenticity and vulnerabiilty to our much hardened world.
- And much more!
