Episode 27: Transforming from survival to revival

Last year we embarked on a pandemic journey that required us to live in Survival Mode. Leila talks about the troubling symptoms of Survival Mode, and shares her insights along the way to Revival Mode. 

In this episode she also shares her "talk of a lifetime" called "Keeping it Together When Life Falls Apart." She tells the story of her family's loss and how the transformative power of music is stronger than we could ever know. 

Make sure to watch the YouTube video of her talk because you'll never view your profession as a music teacher quite the same again.
