COMING HOME TO YOURSELF

 Coming Home to Yourself (EP coming Autumn/Winter 2022) //

My pain and freedom becomes someone’s breakthrough

“be easy. 

take your time. 

you are coming

home. 

to yourself.”

Over the last three years I sporadically would come to the piano and just sing whatever I was feeling or processing in that moment during my intentional trauma healing journey. I would sit, hit record on my phone, without filtering and editing, just playing and singing whatever was going on in my mind and heart. I did this for myself as a way to look back in the months to come how far I would have come since that point, or at least what was going on the months before. 

A few weeks ago I sat and did this again, to sit and process the progress and feeling I had hit a breakthrough. For the first time after that I sat and listened to the other recordings, and realised how wonderfully they fit together explaining the highs and lows and the journey. I shared them with my Supervisor not thinking much of it, but just to show that despite my doubts I had actually been able to create these last three years. 

A series of things happened and I now have the blessed chance to record this music and share it later this year.  A few years or even months ago it would have been really important for me for it to be “successful,” how many would it reach and how many numbers? Now my hope is that anyone who is on their journey and feels isolated and like there is no hope that they will maybe find this and feel seen. That they can take a deep breath and trust that they will in time be able to come home to themselves.
