It wasn\\u2019t easy, but Musical Artist, Nina Grae,\\xa0 found a way to keep going through her darkest days, starting with the healing power of music. \\xa0 If you are searching for a way to keep going when it feels like it\\u2019s all falling apart (hello world!), this episode is for you.

There is something about Nina that pulls you into her space, shakes you to your core, and calms you down.\\xa0 All at the same time.\\xa0 All while showing, by example, how to reignite our own flickering light.

Me Too Moment

The tools and survival skills she has honed through the years were born of a \\u201dMe Too\\u201d moment at a formative age...a moment that brought Nina to her knees.

It took her shine and her enthusiasm for life.\\xa0 What should have been a joyous, carefree time turned into an 8-year journey to reclaim her light. \\xa0

And reclaim it she did, with the help of a loving family and her love of music.

Healing

Nina rode it out.\\xa0 And so can you.\\xa0 Healing is possible and that\\u2019s what Nina and her music are all about.\\xa0 Healing our broken souls and our broken world through the power of music, empathy and kindness.
