🎙 Artists Rising Strengthening Your Inner World: Practicing Love When Fear is Loud with Rachel Haimovich (Rachel Eve) What does it actually mean to choose love over fear—not just as an idea, but as a lived, embodied practice? In this episode of Artists Rising, we explore the inner landscape of fear, resilience, and conscious choice with Rachel Haimovich—a licensed professional counselor and music therapist based in Philadelphia, and a deeply expressive singer-songwriter who releases music under the name Rachel Eve. I first met Rachel through my Songtober Songwriting Challenge, and later had the joy of working with her inside The Songwriters Studio at Artists Rising Co. What immediately stood out to me was her rare ability to bridge clinical insight and creative depth—to understand both the science of our inner world and the artistry of how we live it. Together, we dive into what's really happening in our minds and bodies when fear takes over—and how we can begin to shift, moment by moment, into a more grounded, loving way of being. 🌱 In this episode, we explore: What happens in the brain and body when we operate from fear Why fear feels automatic—and love often feels like a conscious choice How to recognize subtle fear patterns, even in high-functioning or "successful" people The role of shame, self-awareness, and emotional resilience Practical tools to regulate your nervous system in real time How to interrupt fear spirals without bypassing your emotions What self-compassion actually looks like in practice How our thoughts shape the "masterpiece" of our lives The connection between creativity, healing, and rewriting identity Why play is essential—especially in difficult seasons How fear impacts our relationships and how to respond with love The role of boundaries in building healthy, loving connections How to stay grounded in a world that often feels overwhelming 🎨 A central question of this conversation: If our lives are works of art, what are we creating through our thoughts, our patterns, and our choices? And more importantly— what does it look like to create from love, even when fear is loud? 🌍 Why this conversation matters right now We're living in a moment where anxiety, uncertainty, and polarization are high. Many of us are asking: How do I stay open without becoming overwhelmed? How do I respond to fear—my own and others'—without shutting down or reacting? How do I live with courage and integrity in a world that feels unstable? Rachel brings a grounded, compassionate perspective to these questions—reminding us that inner work is not separate from the world we live in… it shapes it. 🌟 About Rachel Rachel Haimovich is a licensed professional counselor and music therapist based in Philadelphia. She integrates psychological insight with creative practice to help people navigate emotional complexity, build resilience, and reconnect with themselves. She is also a gifted singer-songwriter who creates music under the name Rachel Eve, bringing the same depth and emotional honesty into her artistry.

Welcome to Season 6 of the Artists Rising Podcast! Before we begin today, I want to take a moment to share why this podcast is evolving — and really, why it's returning to something that's been in my heart for a long time. This past fall, we traveled to Lesvos, Greece, and volunteered at a refugee camp there. And while we were there, I led somatic singing workshops for Afghan women. Sitting in those rooms — with women who had lost homes, countries, family members, certainty — something in me shifted. Because what I witnessed, again and again, was this: expression is not a luxury. It's a lifeline. These women didn't come in calling themselves artists. They came in as human beings carrying unimaginable weight. And through breath, sound, and song, I watched nervous systems soften. I watched shoulders drop. I watched people come back into their bodies — and back into connection. That experience was a turning point for me. It clarified something I've known for a long time: Artists Rising was never just about art. It's always been about wholeness. It's always been about helping people live from love instead of fear — whether that expression takes the form of a song, a painting, a business, a classroom, or simply the way you show up in your life. Since then, this winter, as we've been on concert tour, I've also been offering workshops along the way — at universities, with students and faculty, and with organizations working directly with refugees. And everywhere I go, I'm hearing the same need echoed back to me. Especially right now — with everything happening in the world — we all need tools. Tools to regulate our nervous systems. Tools to come back into our bodies. Tools to choose love when fear is loud. So moving forward, Artists Rising will continue to serve artists with a capital A — those of you creating careers, projects, and lives through your art. And it will also serve anyone who is willing to see their life as a creative act. We'll share practices, stories, and conversations that support both — because at the end of the day, the work is the same. This is about remembering that you are an artist. That your life is your canvas. And that learning to live in love is the most important creative practice there is.   TODAY'S EPISODE is about Choosing Love in a Fear-Saturated World: How to stay tender and connected to your heart when everything is screaming danger.  If you'd like to listen to the bonus episode today about surrender you can find it here: The Artists Rising Patreon - www.patreon.com/JennyRebecca  If you want more tools for regulating the nervous system, check out The Somatic Singing Starter Kit at www.ArtistsRisingCo.com.

You are going to be SO inspired by today's guest! Dancer, life coach and content creator, Pernilla Stryker is originally from Denmark but has relocated to LA. She has cultivated a following of over 158 thousand Instagram followers, 120 thousand YouTube subscribers and a podcast called Challenge Your Norm.   She is an incredibly unique artist and creator who is incredibly passionate about helping people challenge themselves and reach their goals. It is rare to meet someone else who is just as obsessed with personal growth as I am (!) so today's convo was especially fun for me! The topic of today's episode is something that came up within the context of Pernilla telling her story and it's this question - What if you believed you could?!  We talk today about all things mindset, how there is always a way, how when you commit to something it becomes easier to carry it out, how discipline leads to self-confidence and belief, and the life changing power of visualization and experimentation. I know you will love hearing all the amazing things she has to say!    You can follow her @Pernillastryker and listen to her podcast Challenge Your Norm.  If you are interested in the Musical Neuroplasticity Course starting February 4th, head to www.ArtistsRisingCo.com/Programs!   If you are looking for more support and creative community check out the Artists Rising Collective!
