We were lucky to catch up with Goddesstry recently and have shared our conversation below.

Goddesstry, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today When did you first know you wanted to pursue a creative/artistic path professionally?

I knew I wanted to pursue music when I first heard Jill Scott’s “Beautifully Human” album. It made me feel something. Like there was a world for people who feel music instead of just hearing it. It held space for human essence while magnifying the beauty of nature, specifically on a track called Spring Summer Feeling. There were these beautiful bird chirps, and strings. It was like the gates of heaven were in my ears. It still influences my sound today. I pretty much did what kids do when they realize they want to do music. Join choir, school musicals and start singing groups.

Goddesstry, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

I resolve conflict with self-esteem, clear blockages in creativity through my own visual work, and provide music that is high vibrational, enlightening and overall feels good to the spirit. I am most proud of the development of my stage presence. It didn’t take very long for me to get comfortable, but I found the catalyst to my shyness and inability to just be free on stage. My ability to communicate our planet and it’s guardians messages through mainstream sound sets me apart. The most important thing for listeners to know is that I come from a very intentional place when I write. Some pieces may be based off a life story but, it’s important to me to make music that makes a positive influence. I want people to manifest tranquility and prosperity and find their lives to be fruitful, from the vibrational influence of my art. Music is a mantra and energy in itself.

Is there something you think non-creatives will struggle to understand about your journey as a creative?

It’s easy for non-creatives to miss the hard work that goes into art because ot may seem so effortless or innate. However, it takes energy and discipline to be consistent. It’s work, and I’ve definitely had to choose work over eight hours of sleep. Don’t get me wrong, when your doing what you love it doesn’t really feel like work, but when your wearing so many hats that’s exactly what it is.

For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?

The most rewarding thing about being an artist is having community. There is community in so many aspects of art and I’ve found this at open mics, through fellow musicians, and engineers. When you value those relationships you notice the community that is present, and you’ve gotta cherish it because we can’t do it all alone. I don’t want to.
