Episode 31: Rachel Ebeling - The Angel Band Project

On this episode of the show I welcome Rachel Ebeling, the co-founder and executive director of The Angel Band Project, whose mission is to provide trauma-informed music therapy and advocate for those impacted by sexual and intimate partner violence.Rachel and I had a lovely, wide-ranging conversation during which we discussed the origins of her organization, stories of survival and healing, specific music therapy interventions, and the power of musical creation in community.  We do dive into some heavy material, considering the communities we both serve, so listen with some discretion.A lifelong lover of music, Rachel channels her passion into The Angel Band Project, where she spearheads daily operations and drives its growth as a powerful catalyst for healing and social change. As a compelling storyteller, she travels globally, sharing the project’s mission of providing hope and healing to survivors and expanding its impactful music therapy program. A sought-after keynote speaker at conferences of all sizes, Rachel’s dedication has been recognized with a Woman of Achievement award, celebrating her exceptional volunteer leadership.
