Between You and I

We recorded a live show on March 14th at the Fremont Abbey following a different format that we think you’ll enjoy. We had a panel moderated by Amanda Carter Gomes of The Fold Mag with guests Shelby Earl, and Joy Pearson of Lenore. We explored the complex, but joyous world of musician moms & shared a few tunes to boot. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, so bring a glass, or bottle, of wine, we won’t judge and enjoy the show!

We sit down and have a delightful conversation with the musician, writer, podcaster, politician, and all around nice guy John Roderick.

This episode is a conversation between Shelby Earl and myself which would end up becoming an article that she wrote for the online magazine The Fold. Our topic was about being a female musician and a mother and it was a deep conversation, which I extremely enjoyed, and had been wanting to have for years, so I thank her deeply for reaching out to me to start this discussion. I hope you all enjoy it. It’s a topic that I think isn’t talked about often, and we are planning in the future to build a round table of women discus this topic, that we will record and post as well. I hope you all enjoy my lovelies hope your holidays are going well. Welcome to music and motherhood.

Well, we've done it again, finished another wonderful podcast! I know it's been a while but we're back in business. This episode is with the amazing, sweet, brother from another mother,  Marco Collins! Just like so many podcasts of mine since I am a Chatty Cathy (Marco being my equal in that) this one is pretty darn long. We clocked in at over two hours and probably could've kept going! We covered so many things from midlife crisis to the grunge era to the first world problem of what do I do next, insecurities, fear, art, change, self-confidence or lack there of and more Just note there is a surprise halfway through when Marco, the ever talented DJ, got me to seeing a certain Hammerbox song, a cappella!
Hope you enjoy and please spread the word if you feel you have a friend who would love to hear this and more.

Love Carrie

It's been a while. How is it that so much can happen in 6 months? Either life is progressive quickly or chaos is ruling. I'm going to keep to the positive. This episode, Ryan Lane, my co-conspirator and I catch up with each other and you. We touch on tech, how crazy 2016 is with so many people passing, grief depression, anti depressants, meditation, midlife, music, life coaching and on. Please spread the word, pass on this podcast if something strikes you or helps. Thank you for listening and more soon.

Roderick Romero

I've known Roderick from Sky Cries Mary since I was 20. Way prior to my even considering doing music or following my dreams to be an artist. He was so far ahead that arena. That being said I know that Roderick definitely inspired me and I still follow ideas he shared with me way back when. I've always loved his ability to follow his spirit and boldly put himself and his art out there. I really needed to touch base with this person who reminding me to dream and see where the universe takes you. Don't choke hold your wishes but just toss them out there and wait for the magic to arrive! Thank you Roderick for continuing to astound and amaze me! 

We talked for almost two hours and I could've stayed on the line for most the day! Listeners, stick it out cause, for those who need it, there is some good stuff here!

It's taken me way too long to get to a place to find old friends again. I"m so happy that we are all waking up enough to find each other again. I am personally committed to reaching out more from here going forward. This podcast is so much about it.
During the early 90s period of music scene, I was so introverted and shy in some ways. I was used to being a loner and watcher in so many ways. That is who I had been in my life up into then. On stage was different. I felt an automatic comfort like I became a vessel and there was no time to worry! Ah that's a good feeling. 
Now I am ready and am so enjoying coming together with other musicians/friends that I really didn't get to know so much at the time. Ah youth! So afraid and trying to tough it through so often. You just don't know what you don't know at the time. Well many years later I do. 
So for our 5th podcast (I wish it had been the 7th) I reached out to the wonderful women of 7 Year Bitch. I loved talking with Selene Vigil, Valerie Agnew and Elizabeth Davis. I got the chance to regroup with some of them during the weekend of our benefit to support James Atkins (soul brother and bassist for Hammerbox). I just felt so much love and thought I saw a real look in each other eyes that we hungered to talk and were so ready to share and commune on where we've been, how we've been and where we want to go now. This really just felt like part I of many conversation! Hope you enjoy.
