Sometimes grief finds its way into music and a song is born.

In this honest and moving conversation, Canadian singer, songwriter and musician Rebekah Hawker talks about losing her mother and how that loss has shaped the way she writes, performs and makes music.

At the heart of the conversation is Rebekah’s song "Quit My Habit" —a beautiful exploration of grief and the ways it can manifest in our lives. Rebekah speaks openly about where the song came from, what it revealed about her own grief, and what happens when experiences that can be difficult to put into words find expression through music.

Together, we explore the power of creativity in hard times and the ways music can help us feel, process and share what we are carrying. Rebekah reminds us that art doesn’t take our grief away—but it can give it a voice, a shape, and somewhere to go.

Be sure to give this episode a listen. It's available on all streaming platforms and at: https://what-now.buzzsprout.com
