In this bonus episode, we are joined by Monique Mead, whose work with students at Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, and the community initiative Mega Surround Sound Bath has been featured in recent headlines.
 Monique Mead is a violinist, educator, sound healing practitioner and entrepreneur dedicated to exploring the intersection of music and well-being. As Director of Music Entrepreneurship at Carnegie Mellon University, she has guided students in launching impactful community wellness programs, such as Azure Pittsburgh, Lullaby Project Pittsburgh, and Scottie Sound Bath. In 2021, she founded a sound healing studio in partnership with the Awareness & Wellness Center, helping clients access deep relaxation and healing through music. Monique’s work also includes leading the Rancho La Puerta Chamber Music Festival and, in 2019, performing Beethoven’s Violin Concerto 50 times in 250 days for communities facing adversity. Her ongoing mission is to expand the role of music in promoting mental health and well-being, both through direct practice and by mentoring others in sound therapy.
