How To Find Your Voice: Interview with Claude Hall

Listen to my conversation with Cabaret singer, Claude Hall below about how doing what was good for her soul led her to find an outlet for self-expression and healing.

Whether you are an artist, coach or creative entrepreneur, you are going to get so much about following your intuition, building a community of support around you, and trusting the creative process!

In this interview Claude shares:

  • How music found her.
  • How your passions and creative projects can take on a life of their own.
  • The importance of being open and listening to where you are being led.
  • Her secret for dealing with challenges in her music career.
  • How she almost missed a blessing right under her nose.
  • How to gather your community of supporters.
  • About the inspiration for her upcoming March 9th show called “Soul Shadows” in Los Angeles
  • And much, much more.
