On this episode, we sit down with Genevieve Wynand, a writer and editor from Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada. At 11 years old, she was dead set on playing the drums, but was told that “girls don’t play drums.” 35 years later “More Than A Feeling” by Boston comes on the radio while driving, and she makes the life-affirming decision to drive to the music store right then to begin her drumming journey that was stifled all those years ago. It is a story of courage and transformation. Genevieve shares how drumming became a liberating force, helping her navigate anxiety and body image issues, ultimately changing her life. Her story highlights the indispensable role music plays in growth, healing, and the (re)discovery of our truest, favorite selves.
