Get ready for a real deep dive conversation.My next guest on Shifts & Giggles is none other than the magical and multi-talented Matthew Broad.

Matthew is a true pied piper of play and connection—leading community drumming circles for over 25 years, teaching people of all ages and skill levels how to find their rhythm, listen to one another, and create music together in just minutes.  His drumming circles build community, melt away stress, and spark pure joy.

But Matthew’s creativity doesn’t stop there—he’s also an author, a pie maker (yes, pie! ), and a freehand mandala artist whose work flows directly from a divine source of inspiration. What started with painting gratitude stones and garden rocks has blossomed into hundreds of vibrant mandalas on rocks, tiles, glass, canvas, and more. Each piece is a meditation, a joyful act of acceptance, and a reminder that perfection isn’t the goal—presence and play are. 

Matthew brings music, art, presence and laughter wherever he goes, and I can’t wait to see where our conversation takes us. One thing’s for sure: it will be deep, meaningful, and sprinkled with some laughter too.
