I am a pianist, composer, educator, and creative coach.
I am the most passionate about Brazilian music, although I also play jazz and classical music.
And above all, I consider myself a curious person.
And I think that's what leads me to continue pursuing a creative career.
In the seventh episode of the season, titled, Crafting Creative Path, Exploring Brazilian
Rhythms, Creative Coaching, and the Art of Self-Compassion, we are excited to welcome
acclaimed composer, recording artist and pianist, Rebecca Haas.
As a multifaceted artist, Rebecca's work seamlessly bridges music, coaching, and mental
health advocacy.
Her journey is a powerful testament to persistence, authenticity, and self-compassion.
From her passion for Brazilian rhythms to her groundbreaking coaching practices, Rebecca
has carved a truly unique path in the music world.
And I think it does come back to curiosity and letting that and just moving toward the
things that light you up be the way that takes you on your path.
I really tried to force myself into some paths that were not for me, like many times.
And that's fine.
Like, I think I had to take some so-called wrong turns in order to figure out what I
did really want to be doing.
And I don't really consider them wrong turns because I learned from every single thing
that I have done.
Because I think I was more in a fixed mindset of this is how I am and I can't become something
else in those times when I didn't have the confidence to be a composer.
And then once I embraced growth mindset where it was like, well, yeah, we keep growing.
The theme that's really come through for me the most in the last few years is pursuing
creative joy.
Because I've just realized that that's how we have longevity, both in this profession
and just in life.
We have to keep pursuing joy and ultimately that's what's going to keep us going and
continue to feed us.
So.
