​🎶💃🌻
I launched YourCreativeChord as a place for YOU to find comfort, tips, advice, support, and working strategies for nurturing creativity and inspiration.
​
You'll find encouragement everywhere you look here. I provide content that will transform your creative progress and inspire you!


I'm a 50+ woman managing my roles as a blogger, writer, podcast host, motivational piano coach, creative memorial planning coach, poet, composer, nature photographer, and caregiver for my 83-year mother.


I understand the inherent challenges within the creative process and the inner struggles and daily stress as a creator. I empathize deeply with your juggling with work and life balance. 


I tackle it all by basing everything on the spiritual optimism of my daily Buddhist practice*. 

CREATIVE STRATEGIES THAT WORK!

My 30+ year career as a professional musician, piano and music educator, composer, writer, and nature photographer allows me the edge of expertise in the creative life.

I grew up with a family of artists, photographers, poets, musicians, writers, chefs, carpenters, and sewists.

As an artist for peace, I go deep. I lead through my creative process and show you how to plow through each obstacle and reach your creative potential and spiritual strength.

You'll get working strategies for overcoming challenges, inspirational stories, and tips for developing positive self-care. You'll find ways to transform stress into confident inner wellness.

As an artist for peace, I aim to empower you and me through courageous, dynamic living.

I offer hope-filled ways to nurture your vibrant creativity, overcome challenges and reach goals with strong inner awareness and transformation. I lead by example through creative strategies, achieving victory over obstacles and fulfilling life's greatest potential.

I get real specific if you're interested in learning or improving your piano or music-making. As a music educator for 30+ years, I've taught music, voice, composition, and piano to students from 4 to 90.


As a musician, I know how to help musicians overcome boredom, get past musical and mental blocks, and improve musical progress through effective music practice. I can guide you to musical confidence, creative connection, and artistic inspiration in your piano learning journey.


I offer you a valuable game plan for confident, consistent piano progress for yourself or your child. My new ebook offers a roadmap for setting the foundation for starting piano right. Click here to get my new ebook, 


🎹 Start Piano: What You Need For Successful Learning! 🎹 


Watch this space for my upcoming ebook and course offering my best tips on How To Practice Piano Effectively. 


I compose piano-based, orchestral, and musical theater-style music. ​You may also find my music at JLMusicStudio.com and on YouTube.


I've had years of experience facilitating multiple songwriter and composer groups from Kentucky to Japan. I've co-founded, administered, and written content for Film Scoring & Orchestration Applied and Women Composers Collective Facebook groups (10K+ members), dedicated spaces for composers and music producers to gain hands-on practice, peer feedback, and a diversity-supportive community.


My determination as an artist for peace is based on my 36+ years of Buddhist practice*. In my spare time, I chill with yoga stretches, splurge with an occasional massage, express myself through poetry and music, attend local classical concerts, savor dark chocolate, cycle the beautiful Legacy Trail, enjoy nature walks and photography, and pay doting attention to my cats, Cory (in the photo with me, above) and Myster (below).
