Her Song Journeys

Andrea Belita

Season 2 is Her Song Journeys from Andrea Belita which is the stories that built the songs she wrote. She is a singer/songwriter/producer and is passionate about moving from insecurity to confidence because she had to do that for herself. She grew up without electricity, without walls in their makeshift home in Idaho, and she has created a life she loves and thrives in. After 14 years of dating, terrified of repeating her parent's male-dominated relationship, she found the love of her life after reading, learning, and practicing healthy relationships. She grew up in an extreme Mormon household and has since found joy in spirituality instead of religion. Recently, psychedelic experiences have been healing the family she grew up in with five of the 9 family members having psychedelic therapy and overcoming blocks they previously were not able to release. Hopefully, you can relate to the realness you will find in these raw experiences.

Season 1 is about athletic, adventurous women that Andrea interviewed while building her product and company Swet Seat. Swet Seat sold in 2022, so if you still need a seat cover, head over to swetseat.com to support the new owner.

Ep 11: Amanda Weishar - RV Life With Her Kids For a Year
Amanda is an attorney turned stay-at-home mom who is adventurous all the way. If she had her way, she'd live in a tiny home on a piece of land, but in the meantime she's doing all she can to provide the experiences that her heart desires and that helps shape her kids. She and her husband sold their home and headed out on the road for a year. Brave and adventurous with zero RV experience in the past, they didn't even use YouTube to figure out how to reverse a truck with an RV. They just figured it out. With challenges along the way, they made lemonade out of lemons. They took this year to homeschool and enjoy time together. It came to an end when her husband needed to go back into the office to work. Although the hope had been to stay out for 2 to 3 years, they adapted and are back to normal life, but with a different perspective. She even tells about the costs associated with this endeavor. You'll get the whole scoop. With a kindergartner and first-grader, she sent her kids off to school this year. Now that her kids are back at home because of COVID19, she's loving it and reconsidering the idea of homeschooling. On top of that, she had been training for her first marathon and it got canceled because of COVID19. She planned her own and ran it anyway. You will love my conversation with Amanda. She's an inspiring friend and person. Subscribe to this podcast so you can get a new episode every week. Share this with a friend. Thank you for listening!

Ep 10: Andrea McKee - What it's Like to Write Songs
How Andrea went from no background growing up in music to writing songs, recording an album, and going on tour. I'm your host and I consider myself a very creative person. I've always loved to sing and did choirs in high school along with church choirs. I did a few solos, but my confidence grew in college. Songwriting became something that I fell in love with in college after a few experiences that led up to it. After my freshman college roommate, Tracy was killed in a car accident, I became intent on carrying out her songwriting legacy. She inspired me with her love of guitar and songwriting, so I took a guitar class. That particular method of guitar playing didn't resonate well with me, so I put the guitar down for a couple of years. I picked it back up when I started a bluegrass band for a talent show and it was history from there. I bought my own guitar, wrote my first song, and now I've written over 100 songs. I went on a house concert tour with my 6 month old after producing a 7 song album. You'll hear a few of those songs on this episode. You can find my music by Googling Andrea Belita. You can find my album anywhere you listen on Spotify, Apple, Google, Amazon, YouTube, etc. Watch my two music videos I'm Yours and Going Dancing. I've also written a few kid's songs for The Leader in Me and Be Proactive has 145K views on YouTube with hundreds of kids across the country performing my songs for their schoolwide leadership programs.
