Why listen? We spend years building skills—but at what point do those skills actually become self-expression? And how much skill do you really need to express something meaningful? In this episode, Kathleen Wiley and Deborah Henson-Conant explore the relationship between technique, creativity, and personal voice. Is skill the gateway to expression—or can it sometimes get in the way? Many people believe they're "not ready" to express themselves until they reach a certain level. But what if expression isn't something you earn later… what if it's available right now? Through a blend of psychology and musical insight, this conversation unpacks how values, identity, and inner permission shape the way we create—and share. This episode invites you to rethink what it means to be "good enough," and to discover how your unique voice can emerge at any stage of your journey. In this episode, you'll discover: The real relationship between skill and self-expression Why waiting to be "good enough" can block creativity How personal values influence the way you create The difference between technical mastery and authentic voice How to access self-expression at any level of experience Join two harp players—a Jungian psychoanalyst and a composer/performer—for a reflective conversation about music, psychology, and life. 🕘 Live at 9:15-ish EST on most Fridays 🎧 Watch and listen: JungAtHarp.com
