This year has been filled with challenges and setbacks, but Lauren Sanderson didn’t let any of that stop her from celebrating the release of her debut album, Midwest Kids Can Make It Big in early 2020. Despite the challenges Lauren has stayed focused, creative and inspired. Lauren and I talked a lot about where her determination comes from, how it’s important to honor all sides of yourself and what brings us joy. Lots to learn from this conversation.

Kaleena Zanders is one of the fastest emerging stars in music—and you’ll learn why in this conversation. Kaleena has been compared to tons of 90s house vocalists, and Zanders music brings the genre back to its queer, Black origins. Her new track “RELOAD,” which was written about her personal experience with police brutality at the end of last year captures the idea the love can heal over hate. We talked about her powerful song, what’s coming next and how 2020 has impacted her mental health. 

FYI, the video for “RELOAD” is a must-watch! Hope you enjoy the episode and share with a friend.

Daniel McCartney has been working in the music industry for years, and when he noticed a lack of resources and support for musicians and their mental health, he decided to do something about it. Enter, The Continuance Foundation.
