The Royal Speaker: The Rhythm That Carried Him Home

April 23, 2025

🟣 Before the Stage, There Was the Floor.

Before I had the words to explain what I was feeling…
I had rhythm.

Before I knew what healing meant…
I had rhythm.

And before the world handed me titles, microphones, or stages…
I had a spoon in one hand and a pot in the other —
playing my way into peace.

What looked like noise to others was my first form of therapy.
Every day, for one hour, I was allowed to return to those same pots and pans.
That daily rhythm helped me regulate, express, and breathe.
It saved me long before I ever knew what I was being saved from.

I didn’t learn healing in a textbook —
I learned it barefoot on a kitchen floor in Longview, Texas.

And today, I carry that same rhythm into schools, memory care communities, mental health spaces, and stages across the country.
Because rhythm still speaks where words fall short.

🟣 This is the pulse of healing.

🟣 **The Pulse of Healing**
A Rhythm-Based Workshop for Trauma Recovery and Mental Wellness

We all carry stories — some joyful, some painful. But trauma has a way of silencing the parts of us that most need a voice.

As a mental health professional and therapeutic drumming facilitator, I’ve seen that sometimes talk therapy isn’t enough. Some memories are older than words… but rhythm can reach them.

That’s the heart behind *The Pulse of Healing* — a transformative experience using **bilateral drumming** to help release emotional tension, process trauma, and reconnect with the body.

This isn’t about playing music — it’s about **moving through pain and finding peace** in a rhythm that brings your mind and heart back into alignment.

💜 Whether you’re dealing with grief, anxiety, burnout, or just feeling stuck — you’re not alone.
Let’s heal, one beat at a time.

Why Every School Needs a Rhythm-Based Program

April 18, 2025

I need you to know — rhythm isn’t just a creative outlet; it’s a critical piece of a child’s development. 🧠🥁

Inside every drumbeat is an opportunity for growth, connection, and healing — and that’s why I believe every school needs a rhythm-based program.

More Than Music — It’s Brain Science.

When students engage in rhythm — drumming, clapping games, body percussion — something powerful happens:

✨ Both sides of the brain light up.

🧩 The left side (logic + sequencing) syncs with the right (emotion + creativity), boosting brain function and emotional regulation.

Through rhythm, kids learn to:

✅ Focus better

✅ Retain information

✅ Solve problems more effectively

✅ Manage sensory input

✅ Build emotional resilience

And here’s the best part? It all happens through play.

Because every child learns differently — but every child has rhythm. 🎶

What Happens When Grandma Gets a Drum?

April 18, 2025

I need you to know: you’d be surprised what happens when Grandma gets a drum.

No, really — I’ve watched it unfold time and time again, and it never gets old. A quiet room. A hesitant crowd. Then… tap, tap, tap.

What starts as sound turns into something sacred.

Smiles return. Eyes brighten. Memories stir. That drum becomes more than just an instrument — it becomes a key. A key to joy, connection, and purpose.

Because when Grandma gets a drum, she doesn’t just make music.
She comes alive.

But then, in a quiet instant—a notification on my phone or a message in my inbox—I found myself grounded again in the significance of this journey. These moments of connection remind me of the impact we can have on each other’s lives, and it fuels my commitment to this path. Believing. 💖🎶 #PurposeDriven #MentorshipMatters

The Dual Perspectives of Power: Influence, Control, and the Evolution of Empowerment

March 16, 2025

“I need you to know that power isn’t merely a weapon for the strong; it’s a delicate thread woven into our shared experiences. Imagine a village where everyone thrives in harmony, sharing resources and wisdom. In that world, power uplifts and connects us instead of dominating. Yet, as outside shadows began to creep in, this idyllic harmony was threatened, unveiling the dual nature of power—its capacity for both liberation and oppression.”
