Finding Your Rhythm with Rippler Suzy Turner
This interview would never have happened if Suzy and I had not connected first at a conference. It started with a simple hello but pretty quickly escalated from there into full-on Rippling. To say we hit it off and became fast friends would be an understatement. Suzy is the founder of Soulshine Rhythm Experience, and she is quite literally changing lives with her joyful way of teaching music to anyone who will listen. She works with people in recovery, senior centers, hospice patients, and anyone and everyone to help them find their own internal rhythm. Through her monthly drum circles, she has brought thousands of people together to connect with something deep inside of each of us, something primal and hardwired. Spend just a few minutes listening to her passion and you will be as hooked as I am. It's probably why I've invited Suzy to lead our Ripple Membership through a monthly drum lesson as part of our offering. These respites from life's stresses can transform someone's mood, attitude, and outlook on life. I, for one, recently rewatched one of her lessons when I was stuck on a creative problem, and let's just say she helped me find the drum beat of my creativity and helped me finish a project in record time. She's amazing, and I know you will love her just as much as I do. Check out Suzy's website at https://soulshinerhythm.com/ or email her directly at connect@soulshinerhythm.com. You can also find her on Instagram at @soulshinerhythm
