Natalee Falk talks to me about literally finding her voice. Although she's been singing and performing since she was 2 years old, she didn't truly discover her real voice until recently. Listen to how she found herself - and where she goes from here.

"My story starts at the departure from the life I was 𝑠𝑢𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑒𝑑 to live, and the success I was 𝑠𝑢𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑒𝑑 to be. 

When I moved to Nashville 8 years ago, I had no idea that the career I was about to launch and spent my childhood and young adult life pursuing with my sister, would instead be coming to an end. After the split from my sister, and another foundation falling underneath me when my parents divorced at the same time. I spent an agonizing 8-year continuum of grief - letting go of who I thought I was and was supposed to be, so that I could discover who I was and was 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑛𝑡 to be.   

What I found was a neglected girl underneath…on the endless treadmill - desperate to be felt and seen… and heard her whole life. But singing without a say. A voice without any choice. Living by the agenda that my parents and the music industry had for me. After a journey of unlearning all that I was raised to believe about who I was an artist, a girl, a daughter, a sister… I learned that the departure from my old life would not be the story that I was supposed to tell. Instead, this new story I would tell would have to be my 𝑜𝑤𝑛. And in many ways, finding my voice…. for the first time."
