Music On Your Own Terms 094 - Jessica Compton/Tree Of Stars - Riffs & Self Care
In this week's episode, I talk to Jessica Compton, the founder of Tree Of Stars, an organization that promotes mental health awareness and addiction recovery, by telling stories through music. We discuss Jessica's history of being abandoned and abused as a child, being arrested and turning to drug use, then her journey leading to self care and helping others on their own journey. We talk about how music, art and photography, funds outreach programs and feeding musicians especially during the pandemic, and what learning an instrument has meant to Jessica's own mental health.
