    • Jessica Browning is an American singer songwriter harpist, who has spent the last 5 years living on her sailboat with her husband, baby boy, and three harps traveling the world while sharing her journey of healing and hope through music. Alongside performing across the globe, she is also a motivational speaker, giving talks on how we can use music and embodiment practices to regulate our nervous systems and come back into our bodies.

      Take a deep breath with us as we dive into this conversation.

  • "What punk rock taught me about mental health" with Jason Schreurs
    Jan 26 2025

    Jason Schreurs is a music and mental health writer, host of the Scream Therapy podcast and self-proclaimed punk weirdo living in British Columbia.His book, Scream Therapy: A Punk Journey through Mental Health, follows the transformational journeys of himself and fellow musicians revealing the healing power of punk rock. Jason is happiest when screaming into dented microphones and playing guitar like it’s a percussion instrument.

    Although less of a screaming match, and more of a thoughtful discussion, we are excited to share a glimpse of Jason’s story with you.
