Welcome to 'Find Your Voice' with Dr. Sarah Van Waardhuizen. In this special episode, we explore the heartfelt stories and traditions that keep Christmas music alive in our families. Joined by her mother, Donna Ricks, Dr. Sarah delves into personal holiday memories, the role of music in family traditions, and the transition of Christmas music from communal singing to digital consumption. Through touching anecdotes and historical insights, the episode emphasizes the importance of passing down music through human connections and live experiences, rather than solely relying on digital playlists. Join us as we journey through the songs that shaped our holidays and the voices that make them unforgettable.
