  • 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

Hey, I’m Lainey — former opera singer turned singer-songwriter and voice & creativity coach. This podcast was born from a time in my life when I had worked so hard to mold my voice into what I thought it was supposed to be that I lost my way as an artist… and stopped singing altogether. After years of trying to perfect my sound, I realized I didn’t want to perform other people’s music anymore. I wanted to sing my own. So I started writing songs — raw, imperfect, honest songs — and rediscovered the joy of creative freedom. Now, I help other aspiring singer-songwriters do the same.
