Guided by Spirit: Collaborating with Medium Jim Fargiano 🌿✨
I’m so grateful to have collaborated with Medium Jim Fargiano on a collection of guided meditations.

Jim’s writings and meditations, including his book The Spoken Words of Spirit , have been a source of spiritual guidance and inspiration for me.

In Memory of Ann
In Memory of Ann “Animal” McMann 🥁❤️ We are saddened to hear of the passing of Ann McMann, who played drums in Sweet Little Sister and brought an unforgettable energy to the band.

Like the Muppet she was nicknamed after, she attacked every song with passion and made sure there was always laughter around. Ann was an integral part of the band’s early years, he
