233: Grief, Connection, and Music as a Lifeboat, with Carly King

In this episode, I sit down with my pseudo sister, Carly King, to discuss everything from grief; to our childhood experiences together; to how Carly came to music and honed her craft as a professional recording artist. Carly and I discuss the unique relationship between our mothers, and we unpack the tragedy Carly and her family experienced when they lost her father in 9/11. Carly shares how she has grown up with grief and how that grief has changed over time, how she feels connected to the world through her grief, and how music was the outlet that she didn’t see coming. She also talks about her path to becoming a recording artist, the creative process and personal meaning behind her song “Trust Me, Honey,” and the concept of being “a curse and a lifeboat,” a set of lyrics from her music. Finally, she shares what it’s been like releasing new EP, “From A to B,” and plays a live rendition of “Trust Me, Honey.”Key Takeaway / Points:On losing her father in 9/11On growing up with grief and having grief change over timeOn the strangeness of having a personal tragedy be a national tragedyOn the unique privilege of being connected to the worldOn the importance of having an outlet for griefHow Carly came to music and honed her craftCarly’s path as a recording artistOn the creative process behind writing her song “Trust Me, Honey”On the concept of being “a curse and a lifeboat”On the release of her new EP, “From A to B”Carly plays “Trust Me, Honey”This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
