This time we're diving deep into the world of the human voice. Its science, its art, and the incredible passion that fuels its mastery!

Join me as I sit down with the wonderful Lisa Popeil, a truly legendary vocal coach, pioneering researcher, and an artist whose understanding of voice blew me away. My own path crossed with Lisa's years ago for a single vocal lesson, and the impression she left was so massive, I knew that a longer conversation was inevitable.

What followed was an exploration of her life dedicated to "Voice, Exploration, and Passion." Lisa shares her winding journey from profound early philosophical insights , navigating the music industry, becoming a globally respected authority in vocal science, and finding her ultimate calling in teaching. We get into the mechanics, the myths, and the magic.

Honestly, this one’s a wild ride into a world you might think that you know, but will be fascinated by either way. Y'all ready? Let's go exploring!

In this episode, we’re talking coffee and Los Angeles, among many, many other things.

Join me as I sit down with THE Chuck Herrera, owner and mastermind behind GoodPeople Coffee Co, nestled in the heart of West L.A.. His path was not so straight-forward, and that’s just the way of things for more people than not.

What started as early-morning “coffee talk” became an ongoing conversation which I felt the need to capture, and in this conversation, Chuck shares the winding path that brought him to this moment: a story of growth, self-reflection, and learning to find peace in presence.

Y’all are NOT ready for this one, so buckle up!

In this episode of No More Strangers, Keiana Richàrd-Bartolome joins J.T. Erickson to explore the intersections of performance, identity, and presence. As a director, actor, teacher, and mother, Keiana brings a layered perspective to what it means to be “in the room”, whether on stage, in the classroom, or at home.

Together, they talk about the evolving nature of identity, the balance between creative ambition and family life, and the quiet strength required to trust your voice when it doesn’t always feel welcome. It’s a conversation about alignment, doubt, and choosing to show up anyway.
