Ep 21: The Power and Pitfalls of Nostalgia Through Music
Manage episode 509064828 series 3664995
Nostalgia is powerful — especially when it’s tied to music. A single song can transport us back to a high school dance, a summer road trip, or a moment of heartbreak and healing. Music reminds us of who we were, what we’ve survived, and the dreams we once carried. But there’s also a darker side: nostalgia can trap us in the past, idealize “the good old days,” or leave us longing for a version of ourselves that no longer exists.
In this episode, we explore both the beauty and the pitfalls of musical nostalgia. From Candlebox and Cyndi Lauper to grunge anthems and summer mixtapes, I’ll share personal stories and lessons about how music can anchor our identity, connect us to others, and remind us of our resilience — if we use it the right way.
👉 Homework: This week, play a song from your past and let it remind you not of what you’ve lost — but of how strong and bold you’ve always been.
