Ally Sou's (aka the Fairy Songmother) independent projects have over 185 million streams on Spotify and more than 500 million overall digital impressions. She is an Los Angeles based independent Songwriter, Lyricist and Executive Producer. She found a blindspot in the industry where no one was really developing artists anymore, so she developed her own process. This process is not just about developing artists, but also a formula for developing the soul.

Here's the outline:

1. All the ways you can be a safe space and create safe space for yourself and others
2. The co-creative process of querying, receiving (observing), & affirming - leading to the discovery of potential and what's missing
3. The exhausting trend of working from a space of wanting/needing validation vs a space of being
4. Grappling with the question of holding dignity in a world that seems to chip away at it
5. Following what feels good (& trusting joy), quantity over quality, un-learning, & thinking less
6. A story of synchronicity, timing, alignment, & luck
