Live Your Music News 11/30/16

Hello Everyone,

It was great fun having my brother, Duane Brovan, as my guest for Live Your Music!

Do you want to know how to take better pictures? Do you feel confused about what camera would be best for you? Have you been wondering if it's time to get a camera instead of always using your smart phone to take pictures?

During the show we talked about answers to these questions. Duane has had a passion for digital photography since the year 2000 and he loves to help people get the equipment that is right for them. Duane is also the creator of a really cool new Photographer's Pocket Guide that we talked about during the show.

To hear the replay of the show, with Duane Brovan as my guest, please click here.

Click on the photo to hear a replay of the show with Duane Brovan.

Duane has had an interest in photography for most of his life and when digital cameras began to be used in the late 1990s he became fully committed. As different companies started producing digital cameras he kept up with all the developments and had a knack for finding the "leading edge" products in the industry. Since then he's worked for DeNador Design & Photography shooting hotels for marketing purposes as well as working for brokers in residential real estate.

In addition to being a commercial photographer specializing in architectural photos he began a company as a sports photographer shooting local teams. He also owned a portrait studio and photo training center in Shingletown, CA.

Duane is also the owner of a photography business called Great Perspective Photography in which he strives to educate photographers wishing to improve their craft through his knowledge, classes and tips for the best camera settings in his Photographer's Pocket Guide. To contact Duane, click on the link for his website where you'll find his contact information.

Duane is also working at Crown Camera in Redding, California and is currently their assistant manager. Duane's intention is to help photographers take better pictures through purchasing the proper equipment and by helping them learn how to get the most out of it.

Duane has published a convenient, easy to understand Photographer's Pocket Guide that illustrates how to use the basic camera settings which gives photographers the information on how to take control of their cameras and create their own works of art. The guide opens up to show a wonderful array of information all in one place and folds to a size you can fit in your pocket, purse, or camera bag.

To get the Photographer's Pocket Guide visit www.photopocketguides.com

I hope you'll listen to the show to find out more about why he created the Photographer's Pocket Guide and why you'll want to get at least one of the guides for yourself! They are also great to put in Christmas stockings or for Hanukkah gifts to go with gifts of cameras or smart phones. To find out how to order them, send an email to Duane: [email protected]

This was my second time doing a longer show and having callers ask questions and talk with my guest and we all enjoyed it! I am looking forward to doing more of these longer shows where I can have guests call in to ask questions during the last 20-25 minutes.

Live Your Music - Interview with Michelle Gordon 11/15/16

Hello Everyone,

My inspiring and fun friend, Michelle Gordon, was my guest for Live Your Music today.

Do you ever read "personal development" books and then never take any action? Do you feel like you should be doing more with your life and your time? Do you ever wonder when you'll change your habits and take the time to live your dreams?

Today we talked about Michelle's new top-selling book titled Where's My F*cking Unicorn? and also about the 11/29/16 release of the seventh book in her inspiring series of novels about Earth Angels which start with The Earth Angel Training Academy. The title of book seven is The Twin Flame Reality and it will be available 11/29/16 on Amazon.

To hear the recording of today's fun show, with Michelle Gordon as my guest, please click here.

Click on the photo to hear a replay of the show with Michelle Gordon.

Michelle Gordon has been writing about the spiritual realm for twenty years. It started with poetry and short stories about ghosts and life after death, and has grown to novels about Angels and Faeries, alternate dimensions and parallel universes.

Michelle is an independent author, and has readers all over the world, many of whom have experienced positive shifts as a result of reading her books. She has many more books planned for the future, including more books in the Earth Angel series and a brand new young adults trilogy.

Her new book, Where's My F*cking Unicorn?, rose to number seven on the Amazon best-seller list within two days and is a short book that I greatly enjoyed reading.

Michelle with her new "Unicorn" book.

Michelle says in her subtitle for her little book, "This book is for you if you've read all the self-help books, attended every motivational seminar, spent a fortune on courses – but you're life is still a F*cking mess."

I read the book right after she released it on Kindle a few weeks ago and I love her sense of humor in the book. My life isn't "a mess" but I love to read books that I feel can possibly help me learn something to make my own life better and/or that I can share by telling others about the book.

You'll have to listen to the show to find out more about why she wrote it and why I hope you'll get a copy and then read it!

Click on the book cover to buy the book on Amazon.

Click on the cover of the book, above, to buy the print book or Kindle version of it on Amazon.

Five years ago, Michelle published her first novel in the Earth Angel series – The Earth Angel Training Academy. The seventh book in that series, The Twin Flame Reality, will be available 11/29/16. You can pre-order the Kindle version by clicking on the title.

I've read all of the other books in her series and I am looking forward to this one. Michelle's books are interesting, full of imagination, wonderful characters and amazing and creative places. It would be great to see her books as movies or as an Earth Angels TV series someday!

Click on the book cover to buy it on Amazon.

To find out more about Michelle Gordon and all of her books, please visit her website at: michellegordon.co.uk

During the show a caller asked Michelle if one of the characters in the book was her.

To get a chance to win a signed copy of her book you'll need to answer this question: "What character in the Earth Angel series is based on Michelle?"

WIN A SIGNED BOOK - Put your name in for the drawing of the signed copy of The Earth Angel Training Academy, by sending me an email to: [email protected] and include the answer to the question in your email.

I hope you'll take some time to listen to this interview with Michelle Gordon. During the show we took questions from a couple of callers and that was fun. This was my first time doing a longer show and having callers ask questions and talk with my guest and we all enjoyed it! I am looking forward to doing more of these longer shows where I can have guests call in to ask questions.

Live Your Music – Interview with Leslie Keenan 11/09/16

Hello Everyone,

My inspiring friend, writing coach and teacher, Leslie Keenan, was my guest for Live Your Music today.

Do you have a book – or books – in you? Do you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or afraid to get started? Have you started but are unsure how to complete your book or get it published?

Leslie Keenan has been helping people access their creativity, find time to do what they most love, and complete their writing projects for over thirty years. She works as a writing coach, teacher, editor, and workshop leader.

Today we talked about how she helps writers – and other creative people – get past their inner critics and take the time to "show up" by helping to create a time plan that can work for each person's life.

To hear the recording of today's fun and inspiring show, with Leslie Keenan as my guest, please click here.

Click on the photo to hear a replay of the show with Leslie Keenan.

During the class I took with Leslie (with the same title as her new book, You Can Complete that Book) she had us draw our "inner critics" and for me, mine was one of my grandmothers. Following are some of the "inner critic" drawings you'll find in Leslie's book. My "inner critic" drawing is the one on the bottom right.

My grandmother told me not to put things in writing and she also said I "should" forget about singing. Both are what I call Heart's Desires and they've been with me my whole life.

I am so thankful for Leslie and her helping me get past my "inner critic" so I could write and publish my book The Art of Living a Life You Love!

If you have ever wanted to write a book, or have started writing one but feel stuck or afraid to complete it or get it published, call Leslie and/or read her book!

Click on the book cover to buy the book on Amazon.

Click on the cover of the book, above, or the book's title (below) to buy the print book or Kindle version of You Can Complete That Book on Amazon.

I highly recommend Leslie Keenan and her inspiring and helpful book!

To find out more about Leslie Keenan's work as a writing coach, teacher, editor, and workshop leader, please visit her website at: www.LeslieKeenan.com

While you are listening to our conversation, imagine the joy you can have by living your music.

Please take some time to relax and join me for a conversation with Leslie about how she is living her music by working with people who are inspired to write either a fiction and/or nonfiction book.

Live Your Music – Interview with Jim Kimo West 10/05/16

Hello Everyone,

Jim Kimo West was my guest for Live Your Music this week!

I greatly enjoyed talking with Jim Kimo West about his new album Slackers in Paradise which is just being released today (Wednesday, October 5th, 2016). During the show, you'll get to hear the title track from the album!

When I think of the words Aloha and Mahalo, Jim Kimo West comes to mind. He is a wonderful example of the spirit of both words. Aloha is how Hawaiians say hello and is a warm greeting you hear over and over when you are on Maui or any of the Hawaiian islands. Mahalo is how they say Thank You.

Jim is fun as you can see in the album cover art that is the "photo" for today's show. I am feeling thankful for the fun I had hosting my show with Jim Kimo West today!

To hear the on-demand episode of my interview with Jim Kimo West, please click here.

Click on the illustration above to hear a replay of Live Your Music
with Jim Kimo West as my guest.

Best known as long-time guitarist for the world’s most successful musical comedy artist, Weird Al Yankovic, Kimo is regarded as one of the world’s foremost ki ho’alu or Hawaiian slack key guitar artists. This warm and engaging acoustic guitar style has it’s roots in 1840’s Hawaii.

Kimo is a 2008 winner of the Hawaii Music Awards and two time Na Hoku Hanohano (the Hawaiian ‘Grammy’) nominee. He is also a two-time winner of the LA Treasures Award for his efforts in keeping this important acoustic guitar tradition alive. He is a veteran of Hawaii’s famed slack key festivals as well as the So Cal Slack Key Festival.

Kimo has also worked as a composer for film and TV for many years and maintains a sophisticated private studio in Los Angeles. His slack key compositions have been used in a number of features, TV spots, cable, web and in many documentaries.

Slackers in Paradise is available with the following four links:

During the show today, we talked about why we love Hawaiian music and how it can help relax you while you are driving. It can also bring you back to how it feels to be on Maui or your favorite Hawaiian island. One of the things I love to do is to incorporate things that I love from my vacations into my regular life. Doing this helps bring back not only the happy memories, it also helps you enjoy your time anywhere you live.

I feel thankful to have met Jim Kimo West while we were on Maui in 2012. I am so thankful a friend took us to hear him perform in Napili. We talked about the Napili show today. Listening to CDs by Jim Kimo West brings me back to the feelings of joy from our family celebration time on Maui.

I'd love for you to listen to what Jim Kimo West had to say on the show today. I am also looking forward to hearing from you after you listen to the song from his new album. As you can see above, there are 16 songs on the new CD and I am excited to get it, listen to it and hear Hawaii at home and in my car!

Known as The Angels’ Voice, Anna Grace Taylor is an Angel Therapist®, certified by Doreen Virtue, Theta Healing Practitioner®, singer-songwriter, motivational speaker and author who has been featured on BBC Radio, in the Wall Street Journal and with USA Today best-selling books.

Using her natural intuitive gifts, developed by years of training and experience, Anna connects with Divine love and guidance to support people with all aspects of life and acts as a catalyst for transformation for people all over the world.

Born eleven weeks premature and with Cerebral Palsy, Anna took her first independent steps at the age of six and had to learn to walk two more times following a major surgery and a long-term illness, both in her teens.

Sound and song therapy played an integral part in Anna’s recovery, and her innate love of singing inspired her to dream of recording her own CD. Her debut album Already Here was released after months of co-writing via email, and was made possible thanks to the generosity of hundreds of friends and supporters. Anna, whose voice has been likened to Canadian singer Sarah McLachlan, has since performed for international audiences, and recently began working on new music to be released later this year.

Currently living in England, she is a loving and compassionate woman with a remarkable ability to empathise and shares her inspirational posts, including her Daily Messages of Grace, with millions of people on social media. You can find out more about her work at www.annagracetaylor.com

During the show today, Anna and I talked about Angels, and how to ask for help from the Angels. We also talked about inspiration, songwriting, singing, living your music, and how you can feel happier and more peaceful.

Anna talked about a new song she has written and recorded which will be released toward the end of October. It is exciting she has a new song coming soon!

I played a beautiful song by Anna titled Body which is from her debut album Already Here. The song is one of my favorites. For links to purchase her album through her website, iTunes, and/or CD Baby, click here.

As Anna mentioned during the show, she does weekly Angel readings that are available through her Facebook page: Anna Grace Taylor.

As Asia mentioned during the show, communicating with animals requires us to be willing to be present, to pay attention, and to listen. All of these are also important in our communication in all aspects of life.

Asia also mentioned to talk clearly to your animals so they hear and comprehend what you want them to do. I found myself thinking about how we talk to our self and others. I realized that what she was saying applies to people as well.

Talking with Asia was fun and inspiring. I'd like to have her back on my show to have her tell more stories about her work and how she helps both people and animals.

If you're curious to hear about Asia's work as an animal communicator, please take 30 minutes to listen to the replay of today's show!

Live Your Music - Interview with Jim Kimo West 08/10/16

Hello Everyone,

Jim Kimo West was my guest for Live Your Music today!

Best known as long-time guitarist for the world’s most successful musical comedy artist, Weird Al Yankovic, Jim Kimo West is regarded as one of the world’s foremost ki ho’alu or Hawaiian slack key guitar artists.

To hear the recording of my interview with Jim Kimo West and hear his song Maui Skies, please click here.

Click on the photo above to hear a replay of Live Your Music
with Jim Kimo West as my guest.

Having never even seen Waikiki, Jim Kimo West went right to Hana, Maui in 1985 and spent much of his time there for many years. It was in Hana where he first heard the music of Gabby Pahinui, Sons Of Hawaii, Sonny Chillingworth and Atta Isaacs. Already familiar with alternate tunings, the sound of ki ho’alu (slack key) became his favorite soundtrack.

Jim Kimo West is a 2008 winner of the Hawaii Music Awards and two-time Na Hoku Hanohano (the Hawaiian ‘Grammy’) nominee. He is also a two-time winner of the LA Treasures Award for his efforts in keeping this important acoustic guitar tradition alive. He is a veteran of Hawaii’s famed slack key festivals as well as the So Cal Slack Key Festival.

Jim's numerous CD’s feature many original compositions as well as inventive arrangements of the genre’s classic repertoire. His latest release, Guitar Stories goes beyond slack key, exploring other genres like West African guitar, Middle Eastern Music and Americana.

Jim has also worked as a composer for film and TV for many years and maintains a sophisticated private studio in Los Angeles. His slack key compositions have been used in a number of features, TV spots, cable, web and in many documentaries.

Jim Kimo West's album Guitar Stories

Today Jim and I talked about his musical journey and what it's like to perform with Weird Al Yankovic on tour as well as performing on Maui and slack key guitar shows. Jim will also perform with Weird Al Yankovic at the annual Festival Supreme hosted by Tenacious D also featuring Flight of the Conchords. It's scheduled for October 29th at Los Angeles’ Shrine Expo Hall & Grounds at USC.

As we discussed during the show, Maui is a place where you feel love everywhere you go. We also talked about the words Aloha and Mahalo which you hear all the time when you when you are there. Gratitude is what Mahalo expresses. Being in touch with your gratitude reminds you to enjoy the beauty that surrounds you and the people you have in your life.

Following are some beautiful pictures Jim took on Maui. Listening to Jim's songs reminds me of being on Maui. I love to hear the music of Hawaii. If you do, or would like to, I highly recommend you listen to this interview and get one or more of Jim's albums!

Princeville Sunset

Napili

Hamoa Beach

The new album Slackers in Paradise will be out October 5, 2016

As Jim mentioned during the last part of the show, he is still on tour with Weird Al Yankovic and also has shows scheduled on Maui for the release of his new album Slackers in Paradise in October and November this year.

I was inspired to have Paul back on my show to talk about his album Love Expanding Love. I've been listening to a song from it while I exercise and it makes me feel uplifted, inspired, and happy. The song is titled This Time and it has become one of my favorite songs!

Today I played a beautiful song titled This Time from Paul's album Love Expanding Love

Today Paul and I talked about the importance of being your self which is what the song is about – being who you really are inside. It took me until my 30s to even begin to know my self and as Paul said today, we all keep learning more about who we really are and what we're here to do as we live each year of our life.

Paul Luftenegger with Dr. Christiane Northrup.

I enjoyed hearing about Paul meeting Dr. Christiane Northrup and spending time with her in person and as a guest for her Hay House Radio show.

Dr. Northrup is inspiring and I feel lucky to have heard her speak at a couple of the the Hay House conferences. As Paul says, Dr. Northrup is truly an inspiration.

We also talked about Louise Hay having her 90th Birthday celebration in San Diego and Paul says he is super excited to announce that he's gotten his flights and will be there!

I would love to be there for Louise's 90th Birthday celebration on October 8, 2016. I love Louise Hay and it would be great fun to see Paul there and talk with him in person!

I BELIEVE IN YOU is a conscious song written and recorded by Paul Luftenegger to help the children, help the planet, and help the endangered species. The song begins with a reflective moment and is followed by soft piano and vocals.

Paul's Album Titles Include the Following:
The Miracle of You
Love Expanding Love
Diamond Light
Worthy
Beautiful World / Blessings From Above

Live Your Music - Interview with Robert Berry 07/13/16

Hello Everyone,

Robert Berry was my guest today for a special show of Live Your Music.

For a long time I've had people asking to know more about me and while it felt funny being the "guest" of my own show – with Robert Berry being the "host" asking me questions and making comments on what I had to say – it was fun!!!

To hear the podcast recording of this week's show, with me being "interviewed" by Robert Berry, please click here.

Click on the photo above to hear a replay of Live Your Music
with Robert Berry "interviewing" me.

For this special edition of Live Your Music, Robert Berry and I talked about how our beliefs really do create our reality.

The show takes you on a journey from the Summer of 1966 – 50 Years Ago – to Now, the Summer of 2016.

During the show you'll get to hear a beautiful new song by us, The DeNadors, titled BELIEVE. I wrote the lyrics, my husband Dudley DeNador wrote the music, and Robert Berry recorded the song and added his musical magic to it for us at his recording studio – Soundtek Studios in Campbell, California where our new song was "born" on 06/30/16.

Dudley watching as Robert Berry adds the keyboard tracks to our song BELIEVE.

During the show we talked about an event that happened 50 years ago and about the belief I lived with for a long time. We talked about how it was transformed from a limiting belief into the belief that I could do it.

I gradually began to believe my dream to sing could come true – thanks to the inspiration, beliefs, and encouragement I've gotten from my husband, Dudley, our son, Zander, and our talented friend Robert Berry.

Robert Berry adding the bass guitar track to our song BELIEVE.

Being at the recording studio with Robert and Dudley was so much fun!!! I was bouncing around all day. I felt so happy and had great time singing my vocal track for the song!!!

Robert Berry and me during the recording session for our song BELIEVE.

Robert Berry recording Dudley's guitar track for BELIEVE.

Robert Berry adding the drum tracks for BELIEVE.

The vocal booth at Soundtek Studios – where Robert recorded the vocals of Dudley and me for our song BELIEVE.

Dreams can come true!!! Sometimes they take a long time to manifest but they can and will when it is meant to be.

Being at the recording studio all day on the last day of June 2016 was more fun than I could have ever imagined it would be in my wildest dreams. We love the song and I am excited for you to hear it during this special edition of my show.

Whatever YOU dream of doing – let your Self do it. Just "showing up" for what you love gives you JOY.

By doing what YOU feel called to do you'll feel happier, you'll have more fun, and you can inspire the people who know you to go for their own dreams and Heart's Desires.

BELIEVE is available to download at CD Baby!!!
Visit www.cdbaby.com and search for The DeNadors to download BELIEVE as an mp3.

Live Your Music News 07/06/16

Hello Everyone,

I am taking some time off from my show this week. I had decided to take all of July off but got inspired for a special show I am planning for next week on 07/13/16. During the show you'll get to hear our new song that was just "born" last week on 06/30/16. The title of the song is BELIEVE. We are excited about how amazing it sounds thanks to the musical magic and love our super talented friend Robert Berry put into the creation of it.

This week, in honor of Dr. Wayne Dyer, and all he has inspired me to do, I've decided to re-share links for shows I've done with Wayne Dyer's daughters Skye Dyer and Serena Dyer Pisoni, and Hay House authors Alex Woodard, Dave Carroll, and Michael J. Chase. Each of them is an example of living your music and they are each making the world a better place in their own ways.

Click on the book cover above to buy "I Can See Clearly Now" on Amazon.

One of the things Wayne Dyer did that I greatly appreciated is that he would introduce us to new and inspiring authors, musicians, and singers.

Today, in my eNewsletter, you'll find links for interviews I've done with some inspiring authors including Serena Dyer Pisoni and also links for interviews I've done with Wayne Dyer's daughter Skye who's a talented singer songwriter.

I've included links to the albums and books in this newsletter so you can get them at Amazon by clicking on the covers of each of the CDs and books.

Skye Dyer has been on Live Your Music three times and each time I played one of her beautiful songs from her Letting Go album. To listen to my Live Your Music interviews with Skye Dyer, click on the links that follow.

To hear Skye Dyer's first interview and her song Letting Go, click here.
To hear Skye Dyer's second interview and her song Mirror, click here.
To hear Skye Dyer's third interview and her song My Time, click here.

Serena Dyer Pisoni has been on Live Your Music two times. The first time was before her wedding and her book and the second time was right after her wedding and her book's release. During the second interview I played a song called This Gift which is based on a letter Serena wrote to her Dad. The song was written by Alex Woodard and is sung by Skye Dyer. This Gift is the song that Serena and her Dad danced to at her wedding on Maui.

To hear my first interview with Serena Dyer, click here.
To hear my second interview with Serena Dyer Pisoni, click here.

Alex Woodard was on my show to talk about his For The Sender books which were derived from letters sent to Alex and inspired him to write a series of books and songs. Alex is both a musician and a Hay House author. You'll enjoy our conversation and his song For the Sender which I played during my interview with him.

To hear my Live Your Music interview with Alex Woodard and also hear his song For the Sender, click here.

Dave Carroll was on my show to talk about his book United Breaks Guitars: The Power of One Voice in the Age of Social Media and I played his song United Breaks Guitars which has had millions of views on YouTube.

Dave spoke of how his life has changed since the United Breaks Guitars video went viral on social media and how he learned that one voice can be heard all over the world. Watch the video of the song on YouTube and yours could be the 15,282,828th viewing!!!

To hear my Live Your Music interview with Dave Carroll, click here.

Michael J. Chase was on my show to talk about his inspiring and fun book The Radical Practice of Loving Everyone: A four-legged approach to enlightenment. Focusing on the gregarious antics of his beloved dog Mollie, Michael writes and speaks with humor about how to live a life of kindness and love.

In 2007, Michael started The Kindness Center with the vision of creating a more peaceful and kindhearted world. Rather than build a physical “center,” he decided to spread his message across the globe by creating “random acts of kindness” events.

To hear my Live Your Music interview with Michael J. Chase, click here.

You can listen to On-Demand episodes for all of my Live Your Music shows by clicking on my show banner, above or by clicking here.

I hope you'll take the time to listen to one or more of these inspiring Live Your Music interviews and forward this message to your family and friends so they can listen.

Aloha Love & Big Hugs,
Margaux

Live Your Music – Interview with Paul Miller 06/22/16

Hello Everyone,

My guest for Live Your Music this week was Paul Miller.

To hear the podcast recording of this week's show, with Paul Miller as my guest, please click here.

Click on the photo above to hear a replay of Live Your Music
with Paul Miller.

Paul Miller is celebrating 50 years as a Student of the guitar and his 30th year as a Songwriter.

Paul's two great passions in life are Music and Fly Fishing.

His soon to be released CD — titled Mystic River — is a combination of vocals and instrumentals that use the voice of nature as the soundscape of life, as though it were a journey down a mystical river. The expected release for his new CD is Fall of 2016.

Paul Miller in the recording studio for his new album titled Mystic River and River Song which I played during today's show.

Stylistically Paul's music is written when the mood strikes, in his words, “A perfect example of Americana."

Paul says he has worked with the same musicians over the last 20 years. They include Deborah Winters on Vocals, Robert Powell on Guitar and Pedal Steel, and Ian Dogole on Percussion. The ‘Rivers’ project also includes two special guests, Paul McCandless on woodwinds and Dan Zemelman on Grand Piano.

Paul Miller's album Midnight Street

Paul was born in 1951 and was heavily influenced by early Rock 'N' Roll along with Rhythm and Blues.

As a Songwriter he writes about Love, Social Issues, Politics or anything else that his passion directs.

As an example, one of his favorite compositions is titled "American Dream " and it tackles the housing crisis and the collapse of the economy, which created a painful situation for many hard-working people in our country.

Paul believes that Music must be authentic and reflect the times that we live in. He has a need to express healing for the hard times that we go through with his music which is indeed an expression of his soul.

You can find Paul on Facebook with this link: www.facebook.com/PaulMillersMusic

Today Paul and I talked about how he is living his music with the new album Mystic River which is scheduled to be released in Fall 2016.

During the show I played a beautiful song by Paul titled River Song. I love the song and am looking forward to his Mystic River album coming out later this year.

I enjoyed talking with Paul on my show today!! We talked about music, songwriting, and living your life as a journey on a river. I loved what he had to say and I'd love for you to hear what he said during today's show.

Live Your Music – Interview with Ilani Kopirvki 06/15/16

Hello Everyone,

My guest for Live Your Music this week was Ilani Kopiecki.

To hear the podcast recording of this week's show, with Ilani Kopiecki as my guest, please click here.

Click on the photo above to hear a replay of Live Your Music
with Ilani Kopiecki.

Ilani Kopiecki, CMT & CST, is an advanced level CranioSacral Therapist and California Certified Therapeutic Massage Practitioner. She has been in practice for sixteen years, and maintains her office in Novato, California. Her greatest reward is to help her clients become pain free, and regain their zest for life.

Ilani received her therapeutic massage certification in 2000 from the Institute for Conscious Bodywork in San Anselmo, California. She also has completed advanced certification for both adults and pediatrics in CranioSacral Therapy from the Upledger Institute in Palm Beach, Florida.

Vince Before and After CranioSacral Therapy with Ilani

Baby Luna with her parents

Ilani Kopiecki with one of her adult clients

Ilani welcomes clients of all ages; including infants, children, teenagers and adults. As you can see from the photos above, she uses a soft touch to do her work on clients of all ages.

Ilani enjoys giving talks about her work so if you have any questions about sessions with her or having her speak to your group, please send an email to: [email protected]

For more about Ilani Kopiecki and CranioSacral Therapy, please visit her website at: www.ilanisessions.com

Today Ilani and I talked about how she is living her music with her work as a CranioSacral Therapist. Ilani shared stories about her work and I especially loved the one about Vince, the baby in the before and after pictures above.

I had been curious about CranioSacral Therapy because I've heard of it through Hay House events. I was happy to hear Ilani explain what it is and how she uses it to help her clients.

As Ilani explained during the show, a CranioSacral practitioner is trained to read the cranial rhythm of the body. It is separate and distinct from the breath rate and heart beat. By putting hands on gently, the practitioner can feel this rhythm anywhere in the body. In particular, the therapist is looking for a lack of this rhythm, and by treating those areas he/she can treat the source of a wide range of physical problems, rather the just the symptoms.

If you are curious to learn more about CranioSacral Therapy — to find out if it could be helpful for you or someone you know — I highly recommend you listen to this show!

I enjoyed talking with Ilani on my show today! Please listen to the show and share the replay link with your friends!

Michelle Gordon has been writing about the spiritual realm for twenty years. It started with poetry and short stories about ghosts and life after death, and has grown to novels about Angels and Faeries, alternate dimensions and parallel universes.

Five years ago, Michelle published her first novel in the Earth Angel series – The Earth Angel Training Academy. There are now six books in that series, and she has four individual novels in the Visionary Collection.

Michelle is an independent author, and has readers all over the world, many of whom have experienced positive shifts as a result of reading her books. She has many more books planned for the future, including a further seven books in the Earth Angel series and a brand new young adults trilogy.

When not writing, Michelle enjoys running her business, which helps other independent authors to publish their books, and doing oracle and tarot readings.

Michelle is very creative, and usually has a craft project or two on the go! She regularly writes her blog and does oracle card readings on her YouTube channel.

Today Michelle and I talked about why she wished to be a writer, the impact Doreen Virtue and Neale Donald Walsch have had on her writing, as well as the five year anniversary edition of her book The Earth Angel Training Academy which was the start of her two series of books.

Michelle Gordon is a great example of what can happen when you listen to your heart and feel inspired to live your music!

I began reading her book The Earth Angel Training Academy to prepare for the show and I am enjoying it very much – in fact I am super curious what's going to happen and am looking forward to reading the rest of it.

It was fun talking with Michelle Gordon on my show today!

Music Dreams – 50 Years Ago – Now!!!

This summer it will be 50 years since I picked up the belief that I "should" stop singing. I am so thankful that our son Zander inspired me to sing with him in 1993. I am also thankful that my husband has been encouraging me to sing with him.

What I have learned is that we are never too old to listen to our Heart and allow it to guide us!

Music gives me joy. All of my life I've loved music. How do you feel about music? Does it add joy to your life? As you can see in the photo of my husband and I love to sing!

When I was eleven years old I got my first Beatles and Beach Boys albums. I loved to sing with my favorite records in my room. (Especially songs by the Beatles, Beach Boys, Kinks, Yardbirds, Turtles, and Herman's Hermits.) I remember singing while riding my horse and I also enjoyed singing for my family. I began to dream of being a singer!

Then, one summer, 50 years ago, after staying with my grandparents for a month at their home in Los Gatos, I overheard my grandmother telling my mom that I "should" forget about singing. My grandmother sounded so sure I "should" give up singing that I gave up even trying to sing. I believed that she thought I had a "bad" voice.

Looking back on the situation I realize that my grandmother wanted two things — she wanted me to be an artist and paint oil paintings and she wanted to keep me away from the Rock 'n Roll music I loved to hear and to sing.

During college I worked part-time in record stores because I loved music — even though I majored in art as grandma wanted me to do at the time. While working in the record store I met three members of a rock 'n roll band called HUSH. One of them, Robert Berry, became one of the most treasured friends I've ever had in my life. I loved to go watch and listen as he worked at a recording studio. I also loved to watch his band play. My joy came from listening to music and from watching my friends and other people who were living their music!

My husband, Dudley, has always loved music — it's his passion. (You can see his passion for music in the photos in this message.) Before I met him, Dudley started his own business, DeNador Design & Photography. I've enjoyed working with Dudley in his graphic design business for many years.

When I first met Dudley I was thankful that he was only doing music as a hobby because I knew the time and travel it takes to be on the road and perform in a rock 'n roll band!

When our son, Zander, was about three years old, I started to sing again — with him when we were alone in my car. We used to sing songs from the Disney movies "Aladdin" and "Lion King" and also the songs from the movie "The Little Mermaid" while driving around doing errands. After lots of practicing with Zander I got brave enough to sing with Zander when we were with Dudley — going on trips in our car. I was amazed when Dudley told me that I did a good job singing Jasmine's part in "A Whole New World" with Zander singing Aladdin's part of the song. It was FUN being able to sing with my boys in the car!!!

In 2003, ten years after I began to allow myself to enjoy singing again — we attended a family reunion, at my mom's home, in Shasta County. I was thrilled that Dudley and Zander helped me learn to sing the song "Perfect Day" by Hoku for the event. I learned that it takes lots of practice to sing — to remember the words, the way the music goes, and it was fun practicing singing while driving my car.

Then, for awhile, I went back to listening and watching as Dudley and Zander wrote their songs and had them recorded. It was exciting to watch and listen as their song ideas became reality!

Robert Berry , who is now a treasured friend to all three of us, has a recording studio in Campbell, California. He recorded Dudley and Zander's songs. Robert is a very talented musician and he added keyboards, bass guitar, drums, and backup vocals to the tracks with Dudley and Zander playing their guitars and singing.

Going to Robert’s recording studio to watch, to listen, and every once in awhile make a suggestion for lyrics — words that might work better — makes me feel fully alive and full of joy. I love being part of it all — even in tiny ways. I asked Dudley to write a song called "Holiday on Earth" as a tribute to Earl Nightingale and he created a wonderful song we love to hear.

I've been writing lyrics for songs to go with my book, The Art of Living a Life You Love. The first one is called "Imagine" and we've recorded it as a single. We're planning to record "Believe" this year.

There are more songs we've been working on and I am so excited to have them all recorded so you can hear them and let them uplift you, inspire you, and remind you to live your music.

Dudley and Zander have two albums of original songs. Both albums — and the single of our song "Imagine" — were recorded at SoundTek Studios. If you are curious, click on this link to hear The DeNadors on CD Baby.

You can also hear all of the songs on both albums plus the single of our song "Imagine" on Spotify. Just do a search for The DeNadors on Spotify and/or CD Baby and you'll find us.

We'd love to have you hear our songs and let us know which are your favorites. :-)

Robert Berry helps make music dreams come true. He has helped Dudley, Zander, and me — and many, many others — turn their music dreams into reality. I would like to say a big THANK YOU to our treasured friend, Robert Berry, for all he did to make these albums sound so great. Robert is a very talented musician and singer. To find out more about Robert and his music please visit his website at www.RobertBerry.com. On his website you will also find a link to his recording studio, SoundTek Studios.

Do you dream of making music? What do you dream of doing? What would you like to create? What do you feel inspired to share? What are your true Heart's Desires?

On my blog talk radio show Live Your Music I interview people who are living their music. You can hear all of the episodes of my show by clicking on the link.

Your "music" might be music and it can be whatever you feel you are meant to do. For example, my "music" includes being a Mom, hosting my Live Your Music radio show, being a Creative Life Coach, writing my book, and writing lyrics for songs and singing for the joy it give me and to inspire others to do what they feel called to do.

Do you feel you're meant to be a parent? A doctor? An author? A speaker? An actor? A dancer? A visual artist? A teacher? What gives you joy? What do you love to do?

What I know for sure is that every person on the planet has "music" they are here to play. It's why I host my radio show, it's why I became a Creative Life Coach, and it's why I wrote my book The Art of Living a Life You Love.

Here is what Abraham Maslow reminds us: “A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he be at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be.”

I am also thankful that Zander and Dudley and my friend Robert have encouraged me to keep singing.

Now Dudley and I are co-managers for West Coast Songwriters in San Rafael, California. We are having so much fun performing together. Each time I get a bit closer to believing in my dream of writing lyrics for songs and singing on stage with my husband, son, and our friends.

We all need to do what gives us joy. We all need to create whatever we feel inspired to create. It helps us love our life and enjoy our "Holiday on Earth."

Whether your "music" is actually music or something else you feel inspired to do or create — do it. We must each allow our “music” to flow freely from us while we are alive!

Please, everyone who is reading this message — Live Your Music!!!

Since 2006, Brett has been living in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife and two boys, teaching at his music school Guitar School Rocks, and making music in a number of projects including the new band The Marinfidels.

Brett Boyd is a wonderful example of what can happen when you listen to your heart and have the courage to live your music. As Brett said, it's not always easy but the joy you feel – and can give to others – makes it well worthwhile to live the music you hear calling you.

Brett is also an example of how you can have a family, enjoy time with your family, and blend in plenty of time to enjoy playing music.

Live Your Music – Interview with Michelle Chappel 05/25/16

Hello Everyone,

My guest for Live Your Music this week was Michelle Chappel.

Michelle is a singer songwriter with a PhD in psychology. Today we talked about her new CD Call Me Crazy and I played a song from it called Your Own Happy Ending during the show.

To hear the podcast recording of this week's show, with Michelle Chappel as my guest, please click here.

Click on the photo above to hear a replay of Live Your Music
with Michelle Chappel.

Dr. Michelle Millis Chappel is an internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter and speaker with a PhD in psychology from Princeton.

After being voted “Most Inspirational Professor” at the University of California, Santa Cruz, she ditched academics to follow her dream to be a rock star. Since then she’s had top 10 and 20 radio singles in South Africa and the UK; a #1 hit on US college radio; 7 songs featured on ABC, HBO, Encore, and Showtime; and won 17 Billboard International Songwriting awards. She’s also been a finalist for “Best International Artist” in Australia twice (The MusicOz Awards).

Today we talked about inspiration to go for your dreams and encouragement to live your music in your own unique way. We also talked about how living your music can sometimes be done in a variety of ways that can overlap like a Venn diagram.

Michelle Chappel is a great example of what can happen when you listen to your heart and feel inspired to live your music. As we talked about today, fear and excitement can feel very similar so it depends on how you think of it. If you say to yourself, "Feel the Excitement…" it reminds you to focus on the excitement and that is how you start to feel.

Michelle's new CD, Call Me Crazy, is being released soon and she is having a CD release party in Felton, California on June 5, 2016. She has more radio interviews and performances planned for June and she will be giving a talk titled What Successful Women Do Differently on June 28, 2016 in Santa Cruz, California.

Live Your Music – Remembering Wayne Dyer 05/10/16

Hello Everyone,

Live Your Music – Remembering Wayne Dyer was the show for this week. It was recorded live today to celebrate Wayne Dyer on what would have been his 76th Birthday.

To hear the podcast recording of this week's show, Remembering Wayne Dyer, please click here.

Click on the photo above to hear a replay of Live Your Music
Remembering Wayne Dyer.

My husband, Dudley DeNador, was my guest and during the show we shared treasured memories of times we spent with Wayne Dyer along with some of the greatest lessons we've learned from him. :-)

During the show I played Skye Dyer's beautiful song You Inspire Me. Skye wrote it for her Dad and it is one of his favorites. We love it too! Skye's voice sounds beautiful and she is one of the kindest and most loving Earth Angels I've ever known.

We also talked about Serena Dyer and her inspiring book Don't Die with Your Music Still in You. I am so glad to have her book and and I highly recommend it! Serena is a great storyteller and you'll feel like she's talking to you as you read her inspiring book.

As promised, we told the story that goes with pictures of us with Wayne Dyer at Book Passage in Corte Madera, California right before 09/11/01 and the story of us seeing Wayne Dyer on Maui in 2002.

Click on the photo above to hear a replay of Live Your Music
Remembering Wayne Dyer and our Maui picture story.

As Dudley and I said during the show, we are so thankful that we listened to Wayne Dyer's audio program of his book titled What Do You Really Want for Your Children? because he helped us have the wonderful experience we've had as parents and his inspiring advice about raising children helped us raise our incredible son.

The Dyer family is an example of what can happen when your children are surrounded by love and are encouraged to be both thankful and kind. Having spent time with Wayne Dyer and his daughters I can tell you that they are happy, thankful, creative, and kind. They are as Wayne Dyer was – a joy to know and they are full of love and light.

We'd love for you to listen to the show and share it with your family and friends. As Dr. Dyer said so often, "When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change." and LOVE.

"You'll See It When You Believe It." is so true!! Early in the morning I often hear Wayne's voice saying, "The Morning Breeze having secrets to tell you! Get up and write them down!" So far I've always been glad when I got out of bed to write what I was hearing. :-)

Live Your Music – Interview Robert Berry Remembers Keith Emerson 04/23/16

Hello Everyone,

Robert Berry was my guest for Live Your Music this week.

Robert Berry Remembering Keith Emerson is the title of this week's show. Whether you knew Keith or Emerson, Lake & Palmer, I'd love for you to hear what Robert has to say during this show.

To hear the podcast recording of this week's show, with Robert Berry as my guest, please click here.

Click on the photo above to hear a replay of Live Your Music
with Robert Berry Remembering Keith Emerson.

The show focuses on Robert's memories of getting a call from Carl Palmer, going to England, and how excited he was to meet Keith Emerson for the first time. Robert also talked about what Keith was like, what it was like to record an album with him, perform with him, and what he was like as a person and a long-time friend.

Keith Emerson was best known as the awesome keyboard player of the progressive rock group Emerson, Lake & Palmer. You may remember famous songs such as Lucky Man, Fanfare for the Common Man, Hoedown or Welcome Back My Friends to the Show that Never Ends. This incredible trio had a unique, complex, symphonic quality largely due Keith Emerson who is still regarded as one of the most talented rock keyboard players of all time. However, during the last part of the 80's he was in a band called "3" with Robert Berry, which was also known as Emerson, Berry, Palmer. I love their album To The Power of Three and the live album from a show in 1988 which came out last year.

Following are some photos of Keith from the early days and a more recent picture of him as well.

I loved hearing what Robert had to say about Keith. I've admired Keith Emerson as an amazing keyboard player for many years and loved hearing Robert talk about what Keith was like and what is was like to play with him and Carl Palmer.

During the show I played a beautiful new song titled OUR BOND which is a song Robert wrote as a tribute to Keith Emerson. When you listen to the show, you'll also hear Robert tell fun stories of what it was like to perform with Keith and have him as a long-time friend.

You can download the song OUR BOND on Robert's website and you can also watch the great video of the song on YouTube with this link.

Robert Berry is a Grammy nominated recording artist, singer, songwriter, producer, and performing musician. He was featured on an album titled "3" with Keith Emerson & Carl Palmer; he has toured with Ambrosia; and has a long running project - Alliance - with members of Boston, Sammy Hagar, Night Ranger, and has also performed with The Tubes, Greg Kihn and has a wonderful holiday rock group called December People. Robert is also the owner of Soundtek Studios in Campbell, California.
