Galen’s also the daughter of the late and great, Kevin Ayers. Kevin was a pioneer singer and songwriter of the Canterbury psych rock scene in England. Galen talks about life as the daughter of such a free-wheelin’, creative father and a high-achieving mother. In young adulthood, she was the caregiver to her father and shares how that led her to writing and finding her own voice.  

We touch on wisdom, compassion, and how you can’t seem to have one without the other. We also chat about the need for taking recovery days as well as the epidemic of overwhelm and roles in today’s world.

In this episode, Galen tells me about her first well-being retreat on the island of Hydra. She will be joined by Vocologist and Vocal yoga expert, Heather Lyle. Super-cool!
