EP 55 Making Music for the Right Reasons with James Rietz Part1 (Crossbreed)

EP 58 How to bring light into the world without drowning in the darkness

In todays Episode I'm sharing my struggle with wanting to help more animals but not being able to save everyone and sharing my solution, mission and how you can be part of this! I realized recently that my entire Facebook feed had become posts about lost dogs, abandoned animals, abuse cases, rescue emergencies... and while I care deeply about animals, I was starting to feel every day immersed in heartbreak, anger and frustration. My mission is to support rescues in effort to get more strays off the streets and shelter dogs off death row. Instead of drowning in the darkness, I bring the joy, the entertainment and fun. I'm starting to book house parties. An intimate, unique, magical and transformational night of music, story telling, connection and creativity. At every event, during the show my dress will be transformed into a piece of art - which you will be part of - and we'll auction it off to support your or my favorite animal rescue group to help save lives. Share this with anyone who loves music, community & pets.
