Put It All On The Line with Ben Hendry

The Children's Book Author Podcast

This week's episode is with my first Musician on the show - Professional Drummer Ben Hendry. Ben is also a Music Director, teacher & collaborator, and has an interest in Performance Theory and Stage Craft for jazz musicians.
We talked about all this and more in this episode and I came away feeling that I'm allowed to dream big, put all my eggs in one basket and keep going until I get there. I hope you feel that way too.
Enjoy the show.
