All will be well – the power of song lyrics, chat with Erika Michalski

Dr. Erika Michalski has a robust history of providing enthusiastic keynotes and engaging workshops dedicated to empowering participants and cultivating new ideas about professional development. Erika is passionate about creating environments where individuals feel equipped to tackle new challenges as they move forward in personal and professional endeavours. She chooses to anchor all her work by using four primary lenses: authenticity, neuroscience, positive psychology, and evolution ... in other words, there’s a little something for everyone when Erika gets involved! Erika’s story is one of very high and super low phases. It shows how life can bless us and test us, but also how much of a support music can be. In our chat, Erika shares how one artist has continued to play a massive part in her and her family’s life, especially when her husband went through a very scary health battle. Plus, the amazing gift she organised for her husband with the help of that musician who wrote that one song that supported them through the highs and lows of the lives. On this episode we chat about: · Her take on the importance of music for herself, her family and society · How her wedding song has supported her during a crucial and testing time · Why a mixCD (tape) has continued to be a source of strength · What made her pull over on the Interstate and break down · How she created a special (music based) gift for her husband · Her favourite song and why · Why she has an authenticity playlist Connect with Erika: www.stratauth.com Instagram: @ConsultantBarbie LIKED THE EPISODE?
