• 85 | A Creative Year-End Ritual for Singer Songwriters: Reflect, Renew, and Reconnect With Your Voice

  This episode is an invitation to pause. At the end of the year, we so often rush forward—setting goals, making plans, trying to improve. Instead, this guided creative ritual offers a moment to stand still at a viewpoint: to look back at the path you’ve walked, to sense the artistic horizon ahead, and to listen for what wants to come next. Together, we’ll move through a gentle process of grounding, reflection, and creative listening—using journaling, intuitive drawing, lyric fragments, and simple vocal sound. There’s no performance, no fixing, and no pressure to create anything “finished.” Just space. This episode is especially for singer-songwriters who: feel tender or quiet about their voice right now want to reflect on the past year without judgment are craving creative renewal rather than productivity want to begin the next year with trust, curiosity, and presence You can listen straight through, pause when you need to, or return to this ritual anytime. Come as you are. Your voice already belongs here.   <3 Lainey   Next Steps: Book a Coaching Session: reawakenyourvoice.com/coaching Join the Newsletter: reawakenyourvoice.com/insider Visit the Website: reawakenyourvoice.com Email Me: [email protected]

• 83 | 3 Essential Practices Every Singer Songwriter Needs to Overcome Creative Blocks

  Feeling creatively blocked — like there’s a song or idea trying to reach you, but life, doubt, and mental noise keep getting in the way? This week, we’re talking about how to quiet the noise so you can finally hear your creative voice again. Whether you’re returning to music, beginning a new season, or sensing a shift in your artistry, the whisper is always there… it’s just hard to hear when everything else is louder. And I’ll be honest — this episode wasn’t the one I planned. I tried recording it several times, but nothing flowed. Too much noise, too much pressure, not enough space. So instead, we’re talking about exactly that: what dissolves creative blocks and brings you back to clarity. You’ll learn three essential practices every singer-songwriter needs when inspiration feels far away: Journaling — clear the clutter and reconnect with your inner voice Vocal Improvisation — play, explore, and find melody without pressure Creative Play / Artist’s Date — spark inspiration and reset your creative system Plus, I’ll share a simple journaling prompt — “The Song You Haven’t Written Yet” — to help you uncover what’s been trying to come through. If you’re overwhelmed, stuck, or longing to reconnect with your creativity, this episode will help you find the quiet you need to hear yourself again.   <3 Lainey   Next Steps: Book a Coaching Session: reawakenyourvoice.com/coaching Join the Email Newsletter: reawakenyourvoice.com/insider Visit the Website: reawakenyourvoice.com Write Me: [email protected]

• 82 | Why Reawaken Your Voice is Becoming Singer Songwriter (My Story & What's Coming Next)

  Today’s episode is the beginning of a new era for this show. I’m sharing the personal story behind my creative return: how I left the classical world, lost my voice for years, and slowly found my way back through songwriting — the practice that became my refuge, my bridge from silence to song, and the doorway back to my true artistry. I’ll talk about the identity shift I resisted for so long — calling myself a songwriter — and how claiming that truth changed everything. And I’ll share why this podcast is rebranding to Singer Songwriter: to honor the work I’m here to do, and to better support the artists who feel the creative stirring to sing, write, and reclaim their voices again. If you’re an aspiring singer-songwriter or a returning musician finding your way back, this episode is your invitation into a new season of your creative life. <3 Lainey Next Steps: Book a Coaching Session: reawakenyourvoice.com/coaching Join the Newsletter: reawakenyourvoice.com/insider Write Me: [email protected] Visit the Website: reawakenyourvoice.com
