A Better Me
A Better Me
I wrote the song, during lockdown. I had nothing but time on my hands
and I sat and thought about my life and reflected on all my struggles I had endured,
all the decisions I had made and how they had brought me to where I am today. It’s
never easy to see your own mistakes and even harder to say them aloud. So for the
first time I wrote a song for myself! To say, aloud, for all to hear, how I feel and how I
want to be a better me. To live more and appreciate every second. To allow myself
to change and strive for more. To not let the opinions of other to control what I do or
how to do it. To believe in myself and be A Better Me.

IN HER WORDS:
My inspiration for singing and song writing is to always find a way to touch people.
Singing is the purest way to someone’s soul. It’s a privilege to be able to do that. My
song writing style is to find honesty in my words and to convey them in a way that
can resonate in others. So many of us have struggled, loved, lost, fought and even
though some of these times have been hard or sad, I try to find a way to always
make my songs inspiring or uplifting in some way. Showing that in life, things may be
though but WE are in control of our lives and WE can turn things around.
