I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Claire Waite Brown on her Creativity Found podcast, where I opened up about my personal and creative journey — from my early days as a driven young violinist to discovering a freer, more holistic way of making music and living life.

In our conversation, I share how the pressure to achieve as a classical musician eventually led to physical pain and creative burnout — and how that pain became a doorway to transformation. Through the Alexander Technique, I not only found relief from years of neck tension but also rediscovered the ease, joy, and inspiration that had been missing from my art.

We explore:

• My childhood immersed in Suzuki training and competitions
• The moment I realized I was using my creativity in an unhealthy way
• How “noticing without fixing” can melt tension and reconnect you with flow
• How this awareness became the foundation for The Art of Freedom® Method, which helps musicians and creatives align purpose, mind, body, spirit, and artistry

If you’ve ever struggled with tension, self-pressure, or creative stagnation, this conversation offers insight and encouragement to help you reconnect with your natural ease and creative freedom.

I really enjoyed this conversation, and I hope you do, too!
