A few weeks ago, my son and I attended a holiday performance organized by
“A Place To Be” (https://aplacetobeva.org).
It is a non-profit based in Northern Virginia that believes in sustaining the power of music to inspire and transform. Simply put, they help others heal and grow by using Music Therapy. The show featured children and young adults celebrating each other.
I was in AWE.
I saw their confidence shine on stage. I did not feel pity, I felt pride for what they were doing in front of 500 people. I felt AWE. It was bigger than me. I had no internal worries. I was focused on them. I was present. I was “where my feet were”.
Today’s featured podcast guests are the creators and founders of this organization. Kim Tapper and Tom Sweitzer have been friends for years and decided to use their passion for performance to help others.
