What happens when childhood dreams and a love for glittery My Little Pony watches collide with the world of professional music? This week on the Ode to Joy podcast, Sammi Garett, my dear friend and an exceptionally talented musician, joins us for a heartwarming and hilarious chat. From our shared memories in Port Washington to her captivating journey from a high school drummer to a celebrated performer, we recollect the joyful and funny moments that have shaped her path. Sammi also reveals a surprising hobby—archery—that adds another layer to her creative and multifaceted life. Sammi shares her love for percussion, the thrill of her first lead role in a middle school musical, and the undeniable energy exchange with audiences that has fueled her career. Our conversation covers the serendipitous moments that led her to join the funk band Turquaz, and the resilience required to thrive as an artist amidst the inevitable challenges and criticisms. Sammi’s heartfelt insights into maintaining a positive mental attitude and staying true to oneself are both inspiring and relatable, especially for anyone navigating the pressures of performing and social anxiety. Wrapping up this episode, we celebrate the joy of music touring and express our gratitude to our listeners. Sammi gives us a sneak peek into her exciting upcoming projects with her band Cool Cool Cool, including new music releases and tour dates. Don’t miss the chance to follow her journey on social media and catch her live for an unforgettable experience. Tune in for a delightful ride filled with laughter, music, and a touch of nostalgia.

Happy Mother’s Day from this Mama-to-be to all the Mamas worldwide 🩷👶🏻🩵🙏 Been in a major womb cocoon these last few months cooking up this bun in the oven and enjoying time off social media. Happy to be in our second trimester now as the first was challenging with all day nausea and fatigue. Grateful for this opportunity to take time to connect with my wee babe and focus on our growing family unit. Wishing you and yours all the love as we celebrate motherhood today. May we honor the mothers who came before us, the mothers to be, the mothers who have lost, and all those in between.

What does it mean to hold joy and grief and art and love in both hands? Slide 1: Shana Moulton, The Waterfall of Grief, 2019 Slide 2: the zen rock garden at Dai Bosatsu Zendo, where we will be hosting the upcoming @the_griefcation Mother’s Day weekend Slide 3: me, @elenabox , your guide to finding joy in your grief as we traverse into the heart this Mother’s Day weekend at our @the_griefcation When we come together at The Beecher House for our @the_griefcation my goal is to make space for us to hold all that is — in life — For me, grief has been an incredible portal into experiencing my greatest joy. I find after having experienced death first hand, I take the tough things in life less seriously. I have greater access to a big belly laugh at a moments notice. So when I envision all of us together holding our grief at our retreat, I see many of us with smiling laughing faces, eyes filled with tears in that delicious limbo moment between laughter and crying when you’re not sure if your laughing because you’re crying or you’re crying because you’re laughing. I’ll meet you there. Enrollment for @the_griefcation opening soon, keep your eyes peeled. 🩷 #griefretreat #grief #griefcation #joyfulgrieving #joyingrief #upstatenewyorkretreats #artistsoninstagram #artimitateslife #artistinspired

This season on The Ode To Joy Podcast I’ve been in deep conversation with various movers and shakers dreamers and thinkers, artists and beings of the light. I’ve been talking with them about what sparks their inner muse and artist and genius. I believe that all of us are artists and have an inherent sense of how we want to express ourselves and channel The divine creative energy that lies within all of us. The barrier at least from my perspective is in the decision to embrace ourselves as Artists. For a while, now I’ve been in a bit of a inner turmoil around how to express myself as an artist, having been trained as a performer and Comedian, and how to reconcile that with the work that I do. I work in the realms of grief and Shamanism, energy and yoga and movement, which in many ways is an art in of itself. Where I have struggled is in the fact that within me lies so much that I want to share with you all, and I’m absolutely terrified, that if I do share the more zany and strange bits of me, like most of my characters are, that you’ll reject me. That, somehow, my work in the world and my book and my podcast, and all of the things that I do, and share professionally will somehow be negated or thrown out as invalid. So my prayer here is to take the dive and allow myself to share more. I feel like I come around to this so often, and want to embrace and embrace and embrace, though, as I do that circle of compare and despair scrolling, I somehow discourage myself from sharing these strange parts. So here I am just a girl, wanting to bear my soul and art with you. In the hopes that you’ll see it and care for it though I know I can’t really control how it is received once I let it out. That’s the fear. If I can take anything from my good friend, Salvador Dali, it is that fierceness of embracing the life of an artist, and embodying, that essence fully and completely. How are you going in embracing your inner artist & muse?

Ever had one of those moments where you’re in the flow on your path, straight up vibing, then spirit/the universe/ ancestor comes along and is like “not so fast, my guy!” This last year has been a major lesson in leaning into the redirect. In allowing faith to guide me and learning to trust in the divine plan. Lately I’m tuning into my inner muse, seen here as my bedazzled child dancer self. I trust her to guide me along my path. When I connect to the joy that my child self tuned into, I reconnect to a sense of play — a thread into the pulse of the great mystery. As I lean on my crew of ancestors, and guides, I allow them to clear the path of anxiety & worry pointing me in the direction of my greatest joy. I wonder, have you ever had a divine redirect? One of those moments where the path in the river took a turn you weren’t expecting and you just had to hold on tight and have faith? Did you let yourself float downstream or did you white knuckle it a little bit? At some point were you able to flow with it and lean into the great cosmic giggle & child like wonder for the world? Forever expanding into joy with you, my love — let’s keep asking the questions and staying curious ✨❤️ #divineguidance #wisdom #faith #joyfulmovement
