The SHINE! Project is the title of my long-awaited recording, featuring the songs: “Forgive Again”, “Choose to Fly”, “Love & Justice” and more. The songs reflect my life journey of learning the importance of forgiveness and authenticity, and recognizing the relationship between love and justice.

The SHINE! Project was also the title of a fundraising campaign on the innovative new crowd-funding site backher.com, which is dedicated to supporting women & girl-led projects. Thanks to amazing donors, $10,000 was raised for the recording process. I am deeply grateful for, and honored by, this support and belief in the project! To date, we have had two incredibly successful and magical days at InDigital Studio, laying down tracks for the album, and are now finalizing rhythm tracks for all twelve songs. Then I will record the vocal tracks. As you can imagine, creating a completely self-produced album is challenging, time-consuming and expensive work. The $10,000 is an incredible start and, truthfully, additional funding is needed to see the project to completion.

Many people have asked if they can still donate, and the good news is, if you want to donate, it is not too late!

For a donation of $20 or more, you will receive a download of the project upon its completion. I will notify you of the recording progress and how you may obtain your copy via the email address that you provide in the PayPal transaction. I promise not to use your email address for any other means without your permission.
