00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,800
I am a pianist, composer, educator, and creative coach.
2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:11,380
I am the most passionate about Brazilian music, although I also play jazz and classical music.
3
00:00:11,380 --> 00:00:15,180
And above all, I consider myself a curious person.
4
00:00:15,180 --> 00:00:20,460
And I think that's what leads me to continue pursuing a creative career.
5
00:00:20,460 --> 00:00:26,040
In the seventh episode of the season, titled, Crafting Creative Path, Exploring Brazilian
6
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:30,960
Rhythms, Creative Coaching, and the Art of Self-Compassion, we are excited to welcome
7
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,960
acclaimed composer, recording artist and pianist, Rebecca Haas.
8
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,700
As a multifaceted artist, Rebecca's work seamlessly bridges music, coaching, and mental
9
00:00:39,700 --> 00:00:40,700
health advocacy.
10
00:00:40,700 --> 00:00:46,200
Her journey is a powerful testament to persistence, authenticity, and self-compassion.
11
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,120
From her passion for Brazilian rhythms to her groundbreaking coaching practices, Rebecca
12
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,440
has carved a truly unique path in the music world.
13
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:59,760
And I think it does come back to curiosity and letting that and just moving toward the
14
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:04,360
things that light you up be the way that takes you on your path.
15
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:11,040
I really tried to force myself into some paths that were not for me, like many times.
16
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:12,040
And that's fine.
17
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:16,520
Like, I think I had to take some so-called wrong turns in order to figure out what I
18
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,240
did really want to be doing.
19
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,740
And I don't really consider them wrong turns because I learned from every single thing
20
00:01:22,740 --> 00:01:23,740
that I have done.
21
00:01:23,740 --> 00:01:29,640
Because I think I was more in a fixed mindset of this is how I am and I can't become something
22
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,160
else in those times when I didn't have the confidence to be a composer.
23
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:38,520
And then once I embraced growth mindset where it was like, well, yeah, we keep growing.
24
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,860
The theme that's really come through for me the most in the last few years is pursuing
25
00:01:41,860 --> 00:01:42,860
creative joy.
26
00:01:42,860 --> 00:01:49,880
Because I've just realized that that's how we have longevity, both in this profession
27
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:50,880
and just in life.
28
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:56,680
We have to keep pursuing joy and ultimately that's what's going to keep us going and
29
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,080
continue to feed us.
30
00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,080
