Great story as usual, Emma! The end was a big surprise to me, in a very good way!

Thank you for watching! I had a time limit for this story (which I went a few mins over 👀) and the time limit pushed me to make some abrupt creative moves which rather surprised me too!

Brilliant! You’ll have to set boundaries from time to time, but it’s a nice gift to have.

I love the comparison of birth and death. It’s quite accurate. That’s why they have death doulas to help make the transition to the next realm.

I just finished the book “you are a channel” by Sara Landon. It has been life-changing. Not because it’s the best writing ever, but it was super instructive. Very helpful. Thanks for watching, Carolyn. You are definitely my target audience. 🙏🏻🥰

I was lucky enough to be in the audience for an 11am performance on Mother's Day! Emma! You were once again brilliant. You are such a pro. Your performing skill are so top notch and always impressive. And the writing of this piece is sooo good. I can't wait to see the unedited version!

Thank you so much for coming, Diane. You have now attended a lot of my storytelling over these last few years. A lot of your comments have majorly shifted my approach (usually after pissing me off🥰🙏🏻 but that’s the beauty of the process! 🌈!!) and I can see that I’m improving as a result. Really glad you got to see this one in particular since it celebrates singing, the body, and teachers. I have you to thank that I can even watch myself on camera after a live show. Hugely instructive and I cannot believe I used to not do that. 🙈 you are a force!! 💥

WOW!!! What a great story. Im sitting here at the dining room table looking at a picture of my Mom. She moved on 4.5 years ago. I talk with her almost everyday. I feel her presence in many of my life experiences. She is a wonderful experience as she was when she was here.
