About this Episode

Naila Keleta-Mae joins me to explore her album I’m Grateful and the transformative power of music. We dive into songwriting, reggae influences, and the ways music can cross boundaries and touch spaces words alone can’t reach. A heartfelt conversation about artistic vulnerability, creativity, and the courage to answer your calling.

In this episode we talk about:

• How music can reach places and hearts that other art forms can’t
• The challenges and joys of songwriting as a way to express deep truths
• Different art forms for different emotions—poetry, theater, and music
• Naila’s message of persistence: “Don’t give up on yourself, your communities, or your creative calling”

Whether you’re a musician, music-lover, or someone seeking reflection and inspiration, this episode offers insight, encouragement, and a quiet reminder of how music connects us.
