Why ‘The Next Octave’? (The meaning behind my business name!)

Hi Reader,

Most people agree that the purpose of life is to grow and evolve with a goal to achieve your next level as you move through life's many stages.

This is also my goal for my clients who work with me one-on-one inside of ‘The Next Octave.’ My intention is to teach you how to rise above life’s challenges by incorporating songwriting for healing into your life. By definition, an octave is a series of eight notes occupying the interval between (and including) two notes, one having twice or half the frequency of vibration of the other. The first note of a scale is the same note as the eighth note of the scale, but it resonates at a much higher frequency. An octave transcends sound itself! How powerful is that?! (And that led me to choosing 'The Next Octave' as my business name, because I've personally moved into my next level by experiencing the power of song and sound healing, and I want to show you how to do it too!)

You’ve also most likely heard the saying, “If you're not moving forward, you're moving backward.” So let me ask you, what are you doing right now to move forward in your life? And don’t worry, if you feel like you’re stuck spinning your wheels at the moment. You can click on the button below to book a free 20 minute one-on-one online mini-session with me, and I'll help you get unstuck by teaching you how to write a song about whatever you're dealing with, so you can rise above it and move onto your next octave!

To your continued happiness and success,

~Andrea of BLB ✨💜🎶

P.S. No musical experience is required and all skill levels of musicians are welcome to book a free mini-session to learn more!

Weekly Newsletter 3.20.25 Are You Aware of Your Subconscious Patterns? (And that we operate 90-95% of the time from our subconscious mind?!) Hi Reader, Did you know that the key to all healing is awareness? And the fact that our subconscious mind controls 90-95% of our thoughts and behaviors, means that we need to build our awareness in order to respond consciously. Our subconscious mind begins to form from the time we are born until we are about 7 or 8 years old. So basically, everything...

Weekly Newsletter 3.13.25 Why Co-Writing Works So Well! (Trust me, been there, done that!) Hi Reader, For a long time, I wrote all of my songs on my own. When I first started writing as a teenager, it was difficult for me to share my songs with anyone—except for my guitar teacher, who not only taught me how to write songs but was also my biggest cheerleader. My songs were so personal that sharing them felt like revealing a page from my diary. I had to build up the courage to even play them...
