Inspiring Youth went on location with a young musician to find out what it’s like to be in a studio environment and this was an extra special young musician because it was my Granddaughter. Here is what happened!
I was really just trying to spend time with my Granddaughter. It was her fourteenth birthday and I wanted to do something special with her. She has taught herself to play piano, guitar, and other instruments. As the owner of an internet radio station I know a lot of musicians and called on my friend Greg Zaluski of the Greg Zaluski Band. He graciously said yes and it was on. My Wife, Mother, and Neveah (My Granddaughter) headed out for lunch at Harveys (My Mums idea) and then down to Greg’s studio in Brantford Ontario. Greg and his wife Tina went above and beyond even buying Nevaeh a birthday cake.

Nevaeh got a guitar lesson with Greg and then we did the interviews for the television show. They even had me jam with them on the drums although I won’t be joining the band anytime soon. We had a great interview and you can see part of the show here.
So there you have it, Show 7 of Season 8 and special time with my Granddaughter. A big thank you to Greg Zaluski and his wife Tina for all of your help making this happen. If you are a young musician I hope you get some inspiration to continue your career.

Inspiring Youth is meant to be just that inspiring! I recently interviewed a young kart racer that at the young age of nine years old has already gained sponsor recognition, dozens of awards, and a name in the competitive sport all due to a passion for racing.
Nate Stockwell became interested in racing through interest from his Father. He began racing on a homemade simulator and found he had an eye for driving and winning. Since then he has spent countless hours improving his skills and now is competing on some of the toughest tracks in North America.
What inspired me most about this episode was that a passion for what you do can take you a long way. I have found in my own life that passion takes you through the downside of starting and learning skills and if you get good enough you will succeed. Follow those dreams and you too will get there, Nate did!

Journaling is a great way to be more creative! I was never a journaling type of person however I always kept notebooks and sketchbooks of ideas for cartoons, business, and more. Journaling is more than just writing down ideas, but writing down your thoughts, dreams, goals, or other personal thoughts that may interest you.
Many women and girls have been doing this for decades in the form of diaries so this may be secondary information for them but for many men this isn’t normal activity. There are many benefits to journaling such as the process of writing itself, getting ideas out on paper, and a fun way of retaining your thoughts on paper which may turn into creative projects down the road. To give you an idea Taylor Swift is a prolific journal writer and look at the catalogue of songs and career she has created. I created a short video below for you on my thoughts on journaling.
So pick up a pen, get your favourite notebook and start writing. You may be surprised at what it does for your creativity.
