The Air BnB Experience of A Lifetime: Writing a Song on Write Speak Play

We all have our dreams.  Personally, I am someone with Many Big Dreams. To be a world-famous, best-selling author, speaker, podcaster, changer of the world, and a songwriter. I love a song with a story to tell. Something that comes from the writer's soul, a tiny piece or a great big chunk set to a softly picked guitar or loud pounding drums.  I've got notebooks full of half begun songs, a chorus here a verse there. When the mood strikes me, I'll work on something that sounds like a song in my head.  January's Moons and the Hole in My Heart This song is both the tiny piece and big chunk of my soul. While it's for anyone who's lost someone special in their life, I wrote this song when my four-legged soulmate, my horse, My Romeo, died suddenly, leaving a massive hole in my heart. The first time I shared the song with a musician, he put his music to my words. It was a thrill just to have someone say yes, and he created the first version of Hole in My Heart. It was like a simple form of therapy, hearing my words put to music. It felt good and I put the song away.  Then, a sister speaker, Jill Christ from my Speaker Sisterhood group shared how she found a professional songwriter from Nashville with some serious street creds, on Air BnB Experiences. Have you heard of this? Jill hired a woman who worked with her for two hours and turned about a beautiful song using Jill's words and Caitlin Evanson's talent and expertise to create a memory. Dang that Jon Bon Jovi. Those are kind of his words. I booked a session with Caitlin. From the get-go she makes the whole two hours fly by, asking all the right questions, providing the guidance to dig deep and holding the space where all those emotions are safe - and usable for the song you are creating.  Sharing the story of My Romeo still makes my heart squeeze. There were tears shed in this session, and it was okay. Caitlin said this is what it's all about this kind of therapy she provides by letting us spill our emotions into the mixing pot, by feeling all the feelings to tell the story we need to tell.  Caitlin shared how she wants to expand what she does into a kind of therapy, using music to dig into those spaces where we need help to let the words flow.   She is already doing it.  I hope to work with Caitlin again, to create more songs and to help her share her gifts with the world.  Because we could all use some light in our souls and our song playing on the radio.  **I do have the Big Dream of Trisha Yearwood singing this song. ❤️ Links to Caitlin Evanson caitlinevanson.me Insta: @theredweddings Twitter: @caitlinbird Insta: @caitlinbird3651 Link to January Moons, paid Air BnB Experience with Caitlin Evanson Link to Hole in My Heart, collaboration with Andrew Underhill If you want to write a song, here's a link for all the info on this amazing experience: https://www.airbnb.com/experiences/1674796?guests=1&adults=1&s=67&unique_share_id=19508852-3f5a-4d89-8f43-3f33b1220e46
