An Interview With

Willow

SEASON 4 | EPISODE 88 | 24 JUNE 2024

A Sound Healer's Journey: Pursuing her Calling after overcoming fear and near death experiences

On this episode of The Living on the B Side podcast, I interview Willow, an immersive sound experience producer and dedicated sound healing practitioner. Willow shares her profound 10-year journey of self-discovery that led her to this work.

She recounts a traumatic near-death experience at age 22 that sparked a major life change. She realized she needed to face her fears and pursue her artistic dreams. Willow then discovered the transformative power of sound healing and began facilitating sessions using singing bowls, gongs, and other instruments.

Willow discusses how sound healing aims to relax the mind and body through unique sound waves and also reflects on how nature sounds like ocean waves or forests can evoke deep feelings of safety, relaxation and inspiration.

We consider the importance of authenticity and vulnerability in the arts, explore how sharing the whole creative process, not just the highlights, can help others facing struggles in their journey.

Through Willow’s incredible story and insights, this episode examines the transformational power of sound healing and music to overcome challenges and pursue our passions.
