Their most recent LP, Monet’s Garden, released in May 2021 and was created after a lifelong love affair with the work of the famed French impressionist painter, Claude Monet. Dudley also is author of several books, including her most recent: A Year of Guided Meditations: 52 Weekly Affirmations.

In today’s episode, Dudley shares her journey finding her place in the world, discovering her passions, and developing her personal dreams. For years Dudley was on a quest of personal discovery. From facing depression in college to traveling the country in search of inspiration and meaning, if there’s anything her life and travels have taught her it’s this, that we’re all on a quest of understanding and discovery, and that while life is full of joy, it’s also full of struggle and challenge. She met her partner Dean in New York, and together they’ve explored the field of music. Starting from scratch to create musical experiences that could touch everyone around the world, Dudley has found great joy in music. As Dudley shares, part of the joy of exploring life has informed her music with Dean, and their dreams. Today, Dudley is dreaming of a better life for everyone in the world, and how we can help create it.
