They discuss the transformative power of creativity, the importance of connection, and Andrew's experiences with resilience and healing. Whether you're an artist, musician, or someone looking to reconnect with your creative flow, this episode offers inspiration and practical guidance.   Andrew's Bio:  

Andrew Cloninger is a musician, composer, and poet known for his emotionally rich, intuitive approach to creativity. With a background in improvisation, instrumental music, and storytelling, his work blends ambient textures, evocative melodies, and raw emotion.

A self-taught multi-instrumentalist, Andrew’s journey has been shaped by resilience and reinvention, including overcoming a traumatic neck injury that temporarily took away his ability to play music. His book C67, a collection of haiku, explores themes of identity, healing, and personal transformation.

As a collaborator, Andrew thrives in organic, improvisational spaces, including his project Wren Cove, where he creates immersive, soul-stirring soundscapes. His philosophy is simple: music is emotion in motion, a force that unites, heals, and challenges perspectives.
