"I’m always The last person To give permission To me" Actually a really deep statement from my understanding. Very interesting indeed that so many of us in life can do - getting in the way of ourselves, our own glory, our own destiny. Neat one! Always, Laura

It's is only now this month that I've set my first live music concert date as an "In the Moment" pianist at the Triad theater this October 16 in Manhattan. I'm finally giving myself permission to be me. It's been a challenging run for me, to allow this belief to truly settle.
