Sarah, your story just shows that what goes on in the heart of someone is so personal and intimate and vital and really unknown to us until we are able to return to and receive the gift in our childhood wisdom. It causes me to review my own stories so as to glean what is actually in my own heart. Thank you.

It's a beautiful thing that your brother reminded you of your childhood singing as a way to reconnect you to something deeper and true about you.

I listened to this twice today. A day when family issues repeated themselves and I was brought back to being a young child crying around the dinner table wondering why everyone couldn’t just get along? This helped me get through the day. “It is our light that creates the darkness.” I’m learning to embrace the sadness when all I want to do is hide my tears. Thank you, Sarah.

Perhaps we all instinctively know our calling from a very young age. I grew up in New England and mom tells me I wore my bathing suit under my snow suit always. I now work in the yachting industry in the Caribbean. Maybe you knew you were meant to talk and sing and hear yourself back and that was your gift to the world, even then. Going through some intense therapy to uncover and heal some pretty severe childhood trauma and your voice, your recordings are an immense blessing for me. I am incredibly grateful for you and that you followed the heart of the little girl with her tape recorder under the stairs. Thank you, thank you, thank you🙏🏼💖

When you spoke of the wild spirited child you once were being hacked away at...I deeply identified. What if that child could've been fostered to be just as she was; let alone to do and be without being reigned in. I think about that quite a bit. Thank you, Sarah, for sharing.

I still sometimes sing “Love is coming to you you you, Thats how life works” when life gets tough 😀
