Jung at Harp | Episode 187: Conversation of One – The Mechanics of Discovery ✨ Why listen? If you've ever struggled to stay inspired when you're learning or creating alone, this gentle, thought-provoking episode reminds you that discovery doesn't depend on having all the answers — it begins the moment you start asking questions.

In this introspective solo episode of Jung at Harp, harpist-composer Deborah Henson-Conant explores what it means to have a "conversation of one" — and how talking to yourself can become a pathway to discovery, creativity, and learning.

With co-host Kathleen Wiley away, Deborah turns inward, inviting listeners to join her in real-time reflection on how we learn, discover, and create meaning — even when we're alone.

She unpacks the mechanics of discovery through stories from her own learning journey, from studying with mime artist Tony Montanaro to developing her Hip Harp Academy, where she combines information, community, and coaching to inspire musical growth.

You'll hear insights about: 🎵 The three pillars of discovery – learning materials, community, and coaching 💭 Why talking to yourself out loud can spark creativity and self-awareness 📚 The difference between learning and discovery — and why both matter 🌱 How simple patterns and foundational forms can lead to freedom and creative flow 🎶 The importance of showing up — even when you don't feel ready

Through her spontaneous reflections, Deborah shows that a "conversation of one" is never truly solitary. Each listener becomes part of a larger dialogue about music, creativity, and the joy of exploration.
