This episode features the story of Nathalie Joachim, a Grammy-nominated flutist, composer and singer. Haitian-American with first-generation immigrant parents, she started playing flute at age seven and studying at the prestigious Juilliard School by age 10. For over a decade, Nathalie did all the right things to become a lauded musician, but that’s NOT what led to her Grammy-nomination. Her ground-breaking album, “Fanm d’Ayiti” came after a deep personal crisis and a total musical pivot that ultimately unleashed her unique genius and path to personal purpose. What happens when you finally break from all the rules and listen to your intuition? Listen to Nathalie’s story to find out.
