Denial: I Love You, It’s Ruining My Life Playlist

Anger: You Don’t Get to Tell Me About Sad Playlist

“These songs all have one thing in common: I wrote them while feeling anger. Over the years I’ve learned that anger can manifest itself in a lot of different ways, but the healthiest way it can manifest itself in my life is when I can write a song about it.”

Bargaining: Am I Allowed to Cry? Playlist

“This playlist takes you through songs I’ve written when I was in the bargaining stage, times when you’re trying to make deals with yourself or someone you care about, you’re trying to make things better. You’re often times feeling really desperate because oftentimes we have a gut intuition that tells us things are not going the way that we hope. Which makes us more desperate. Which makes us bargain more!”

Depression: Old Habits Die Screaming Playlist

“We’re going to be exploring the feelings of depression that often lace their way through my songs. In times like these, I’ll write a song because I feel lonely or hopeless. And writing a song feels like the only way to process that intensity of an emotion. And while these things are really, really hard to go through, I often feel like when I’m either listening to songs or writing songs that deal with this intensity of loss and hopelessness — usually that’s in the phase where I’m close to getting passed that feeling.”

Acceptance: I Can Do It With a Broken Heart Playlist

“We finally find acceptance and can start moving forward from loss or heartbreak. These songs represent making room for more good in your life, making that choice. Because a lot of the time when we lose things, we gain things too.”
