“Your mouth is just drippings from your brain” —Jessica Connery

We talk to photographer and coach Jessica Connery about silence, listening to the universe, and understanding when it’s time to change directions in your career.

From her website:

I’m left-handed, a middle child, and obsessed with snacks. I was born in upstate NY, moved to Massachusetts when I was two and lived there until winter got the best of me in 2012. We packed up our house and headed to the Sunshine State. In 2002 I married a guy who is the polar opposite of me and we’ve been riding the rollercoaster of marriage ever since. We have two kids (a boy and a girl) and an adorable dog named Biscuit. I read business books for fun, get really jazzed when discussing entrepreneurship, and have a heartfelt desire to help others succeed. I will take Starbucks over any other coffee any day of the week, I crave sunshine but burn easily. I am a champion parallel parker (thanks to living in Boston!) but can’t drive in reverse to save my life. Oh, and I talk a lot.

Bill Protzmann started piano lessons at three years old. He grew up playing and performing and realized very early on that the discipline of playing the piano was also a behavioral healthcare practice. When he began seeking non-traditional audiences — Alzheimer’s patients and people struggling with physical or emotional injuries, stressed-out business people, parents, caregivers — he began to understand the true power of music as a tool.

He has been a witness to the power of music throughout his life and speaks openly about how he has used music as self-intervention in his own behavioral health care, including confronting suicidal tendencies. His volunteer work in the field brings him into constant contact with people who are or have been homeless, abused substances, are combat-injured or are caregivers.

We talk to Bill about the power of music, health care vs. sick care, why self-care isn’t only for hippies and the responsibility performers have to manipulate audiences for good instead of evil.
