Flute 360 | Episode 360: "Closing a Creative Chapter with Intention—A Flute 360 Reflection" This episode marks a meaningful milestone: Episode 360 and seven+ years of Flute 360 podcasting. In this special conversation, I'm joined by my husband, Eric Jay Begay—producer, audio editor, and creative partner—as we reflect on what this journey has meant and why the podcast production itself is coming to a professional pause. Together, we talk about something musicians and creatives rarely discuss: how to discern when a creative chapter is ready to pause, shift, or close with intention. Whether it's an album, a studio, a long-running project, or a season of life, knowing when to pause is a skill—and often an act of wisdom and faith. This conversation is filled with gratitude. Gratitude for our listeners, past sponsors, incredible guests, clients, and the community that has grown alongside this show over the past seven years. It's a celebration of what has been built, not a goodbye. And to be absolutely clear: Flute 360 the business is not ending. Coaching, lessons, the Accelerator, and all other offerings are very much alive and continuing. This is simply a pause in podcast production as we listen for what's next—both within Flute 360 and across our other creative and business endeavors. What We Discuss: What it means to close a creative chapter with intention Lessons learned from seven+ years and 360+ podcast episodes Gratitude for the Flute 360 community, guests, and sponsors Why intentional pauses can lead to deeper alignment and growth Navigating creative pivots with clarity instead of urgency Main Takeaway: Closing or pausing a creative chapter doesn't erase its impact. When done with intention, it honors the work, the growth, and the people who walked the journey with you—and it makes space for what comes next. Follow Heidi! Follow Flute 360 via TikTok!

Flute 360 | Episode 359: "How to Start a Nonprofit Music Organization—Lessons from Dr. Susan Fain" Have you ever felt called to serve your community through music—but weren't sure where to begin? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Susan Fain to talk about what it actually takes to build a nonprofit music organization from the ground up. Dr. Fain shares her journey in Fort Worth, Texas—where she helped create a nonprofit ensemble for medically practicing musicians who still longed for meaningful artistic connection. Together, we explore the realities of nonprofit leadership, community-building, collaboration, and sustaining a mission that brings people together through music. If you've ever wondered whether it's possible to merge artistry, service, and leadership—this conversation will give you insight, encouragement, and practical ideas. What We Discuss: Dr. Susan Fain's path to launching a nonprofit music organization Building community among medically practicing musicians Lessons learned from starting and growing a nonprofit How local partnerships and family support made the work possible Creating meaningful musical experiences outside traditional institutions Why community-centered music-making matters now more than ever Main Takeaway: Starting a nonprofit music organization doesn't begin with perfection—it begins with vision, collaboration, and a willingness to serve. When musicians lead with purpose and community in mind, music becomes a powerful force for connection and healing. Join Us Live: Flute 360 Accelerator on December 20, 2025 If this episode sparks ideas about leadership, community impact, or creating meaningful musical work beyond the traditional path, I'd love to invite you to our next Flute 360 Accelerator session: Saturday, December 20, 2025 from 11 AM–1 PM CT (Chicago, IL, USA) Inside the Accelerator, we unpack projects like this together—ideas, questions, next steps, and sustainable ways to bring your vision to life.

Flute 360 | Episode 358: "Before the Big 360—An Honest Reflection on Calling, Career, and Identity" As Flute 360 approaches a major milestone—360 episodes and seven years on the mic—this solo episode serves as a quiet, heartfelt pause. In Episode 358, Heidi reflects on the journey behind the podcast: the faith, questions, pivots, risks, and relationships that shaped Flute 360 into more than just a show. This episode is not about announcements or strategies—it's about meaning. With honesty and vulnerability, Heidi shares how calling, career, and identity have evolved over decades in music education, performance, entrepreneurship, and seasons of uncertainty. She speaks directly to musicians who have felt boxed into narrow definitions of success, wrestled with comparison, or questioned whether expanding beyond traditional paths means they somehow "failed." This conversation is an invitation back home—to your artistic identity, to community instead of isolation, and to remembering why you were called to music in the first place. It's a grounding moment before Episode 360, and a reminder that growth, faith, and evolution often happen quietly before they're visible. Main Points: Reflecting on seven years of Flute 360 and what this milestone represents Why separating faith, identity, and teaching was never possible for Heidi Redefining success beyond narrow, traditional music career paths Addressing scarcity mindset, comparison culture, and the "top 1%" myth Why pivoting, expanding, or building your own lane does not mean you failed The importance of community, relationships, and shared stories in music Offering a "way back home" to artistry, purpose, and identity Join the Conversation Inside the Flute 360 Accelerator The next live session will take place on: Saturday, December 20, 2025 from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM Central Time.

Flute 360 | Episode 357: "When Teaching Styles Clash—Handling Music Teacher Conflict Without the Drama" Conflicts between music colleagues are more common than we like to admit — and they can show up in band halls, studios, shared programs, and co-teaching situations. In this episode, Dr. Heidi Kay Begay draws from nearly two decades of experience as a professional flutist and music educator to explore how music teachers can navigate these moments with clarity, kindness, and professionalism. From differing teaching methods and pedagogy to shared student populations and communication breakdowns, Heidi walks through real-life examples and offers grounded guidance for addressing conflict without escalating tension or creating confusion for students. This conversation centers on empathy, clear communication, and keeping student growth at the heart of every professional decision. If you've ever felt unsure how to approach a colleague conversation — or worried about maintaining professionalism when teaching styles differ — this episode offers practical perspective and reassurance. Main Points Discussed: The importance of leading with empathy rather than defensiveness How to listen for tone, body language, and context in difficult conversations Navigating shared studios, co-teaching situations, and overlapping student populations Addressing issues directly instead of avoiding uncomfortable conversations Preventing student confusion when multiple instructors are involved How foundational professional relationships support long-term collaboration Why collaboration matters more than competition in music education Key Takeaways: Conflict does not mean failure; it can be an opportunity for growth Clear, kind communication builds trust and respect Students benefit most when educators are aligned, even with different approaches Professionalism and empathy create healthier teaching environments Putting student success first helps resolve even difficult situations Join the Conversation Inside the Flute 360 Accelerator Many of the scenarios discussed in this episode come directly from coaching conversations inside the Flute 360 Accelerator. The next live session will take place on: Saturday, December 20, 2025 from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM Central Time Bring your real-life studio questions, band hall challenges, and professional goals. This session is designed to help you gain clarity, confidence, and practical next steps for your teaching and career.

Flute 360 | Episode 356: "Took a Break? Your Playing Isn't Behind—It's Evolving" This episode is for the musician returning from a hiatus—short or long. Whether life changed, your energy shifted, or you simply needed space, your playing isn't behind. It's evolving. We talk through comparison, fear, grief, and the gentle curiosity needed to rebuild. Breaks don't erase artistry; they often deepen it. What We Discuss: • Why returning to the flute brings up fear, shame, or comparison • How to release old narratives about your "prime" • The role of gentleness, curiosity, and presence in rebuilding • Why negative thoughts aren't truth—just noise • How life experiences enrich your musicianship after a break Main Takeaway: A hiatus does not diminish your artistry. You've grown in ways you may not see yet—and that growth will show up in your sound, your expression, and your interpretation. Join Us Live – December 20, 2025: If you're easing back into playing and want encouragement, community, and tangible next steps, join me inside the Flute 360 Accelerator on Saturday, December 20th, 2025 from 11 AM–1 PM CT. Let's connect you back to the flute – together!

Flute 360 | Episode 355: "Your Spoken Voice Is Your Flute Voice—Here's How to Reunite Them" If you feel disconnected from your playing—unsure, hesitant, or muted—this episode uncovers why. Often, the break isn't just musical; it's between your spoken voice and your flute voice. We revisit early musical memories, confidence wounds, comparison culture, and the pressures that disconnect musicians from their natural expressive centers. You'll learn how your everyday voice can guide you back to authenticity in your artistry. What We Discuss: • How comparison and grading environments could fracture artistic confidence • The moment your spoken and flute voices drifted apart • How past teachers and early musical memories shaped your expression • Why reclaiming your spoken voice repairs your musical voice • Practical ways to bring conversational ease into your playing Main Takeaway: Your flute voice is simply your spoken voice expressed through another medium. When the two reunite, confidence rises, anxiety softens, and your playing becomes more honest, grounded, and you. Join Us Live – December 20, 2025: If this episode stirred something in you, and you want a safe place to reconnect with your artistic voice, join our next Flute 360 Accelerator session on Saturday, December 20th, 2025 from 11 AM–1 PM CT. It's a supportive space to explore expression, identity, and confidence with fellow musicians.

Flute 360 | Episode 354: "Stop Waiting for Perfect Conditions—Practice Without the Flute on Your Face" If you've ever told yourself "I don't have time to practice," this episode will free you. We look at why waiting for the perfect moment keeps musicians stuck—and why some of your most meaningful practice can happen away from the flute. Using the score, your voice, visualization, analysis, listening, and intentional micro-practice, you can move your artistry forward even on the busiest days. What We Discuss: • Why perfectionism keeps you from practicing at all • How to redefine what "counts" as practice • Simple ways to practice without the flute on your face • How 5–10 focused minutes can outshine an hour of distracted work • Creative solutions for practicing inside a busy, very human life Main Takeaway: High-quality, intentional practice doesn't require the perfect setting. You can grow your artistry in the margins of your life—one mindful minute at a time. Join Us Live – December 20, 2025: If you want support creating a practice routine that works with your real life—not against it—come join our next Flute 360 Accelerator session on Saturday, December 20th, 2025 from 11 AM–1 PM CT (Chicago, USA).

Flute 360 | Episode 353: "The Baby Metaphor That Will Change How You Practice Forever" If you've ever played all the "right" notes yet still felt disconnected from your musical expression, this episode will change how you practice forever. In E353, I share a simple baby metaphor that has transformed the way my clients build emotional connection and artistic intention from the very first practice session. Most musicians try to "add expression later," but that approach actually keeps the music from feeling alive. This episode gives you a new way to weave expression, story, and heart into your playing from day one—so your performances feel more honest, more expressive, and fully you. What We Discuss: Why technically strong musicians still feel stuck or emotionally flat How academic training (and jury sheets) could shape our artistic habits The baby metaphor that helps you nurture expression from the beginning Why emotional connection can't be saved for "later" in the process How your life experiences influence colors, vibrato, and phrasing A simple mindset shift to build a deeper relationship with your repertoire Main Takeaway: Expression isn't something you sprinkle on top once the technique is done—it's part of the musical DNA. When you nurture your piece from the very beginning, the final performance becomes more convincing, more expressive, and more you.

Flute 360 | Episode 352: "Stop Shrinking—How to Take Up Healthy Artistic Space as a Musician" If you've ever felt yourself shrinking—apologizing for your sound, playing small in rehearsal, or holding back your musical voice—this episode is for you. Today, we explore why so many musicians collapse inward (mentally, emotionally, and physically) and how to reclaim the healthy artistic space you were designed to inhabit. Across all ages and stages—middle schoolers, college musicians, adult hobbyists, professionals—this pattern appears: talented artists who know what they're capable of internally but feel unable to express it externally. In this conversation, I walk you through the deeper causes behind shrinking behavior and how past comments, environments, or relationships may have taught you to retreat rather than rise. We talk about understanding your worth, advocating for yourself, releasing toxic narratives, and learning to stand in a posture—physically and emotionally—that supports confident, resonant playing. This work is not just about tone or technique; it's about identity, healing, and showing up with presence and intention in your artistry. This episode invites you to notice where you've made yourself small, question the origins of those patterns, and begin stepping forward with courage, clarity, and joy. What We Discuss: Why musicians across all ages tend to shrink in certain environments How authority figures and educational settings shape artistic confidence The difference between healthy respect and unhealthy silence Physical collapse vs. mental retreat, and how the body reveals fear How past comments and old narratives get stored in the lungs and breath Why embodied confidence is essential for expressive, resonant playing How reclaiming artistic space restores joy in practicing and performing A framework for identifying where and why you're minimizing yourself Ways to release old stories so your authentic musical voice can emerge Main Takeaway: You are designed to take up healthy artistic space. When you stand in your God-given identity—emotionally, physically, spiritually—your artistry expands. Your breath frees. Your sound opens. Your presence shifts. And the music you share becomes a reflection of the truth of who you are, not who past voices told you to be.

In this episode, Jason Ingber sits down with comedian Menachem Kashanian, an Iranian-Jewish storyteller with one of the most shocking true experiences you'll ever hear. Menachem reveals how a supposed Netflix casting call for the show Tehran led him into a covert Israeli operation designed to rescue 500 Jewish refugees trapped in Syria. What began as a mysterious Facebook message turned into a month of tactical training, a new identity, and a mission known internally as "Free the Flute." He explains how he was trained to pose as an introverted Armenian musician, learned to play the nay (Middle Eastern flute), infiltrated a Syrian orchestra, and used music to gather intelligence inside refugee camps, ultimately helping save hundreds of lives. Menachem also shares hilarious and unbelievable stories from his personal life, including: • His eccentric billionaire uncle Darush, a dominant figure in Beverly Hills real estate • Wild encounters with Kris Jenner, the Kardashians, and Erewhon staff • The creation of his prank series Old Blood (Hun Parol) • His docuseries Know Before Who You Stand • His friendship with Floyd Mayweather, who quietly supports Jewish communities • A chilling conversation with Mika Kubi, the woman who interrogated Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar for 180+ hours This episode blends comedy, Middle Eastern culture, real-life spy operations, and powerful Jewish storytelling, all through Menachem's unique, unfiltered voice.

Németh Gábor hegedűművész, az Anima Musicae Kamarazenekar kiválóságával a Für Anima című est apropóján beszélgetünk.November 30-án, vasárnap 19.00 órakor a Nádor Teremben kortárs magyar zeneszerzők egyedi hangjai szólalnak meg, ahol a fiatal alkotók friss energiája és a tapasztalt mesterek kiforrott zenei világa találkozik. A koncerten Dukay Barnabás, Varga Judit, Lázár Dániel és Mester Dávid művei csendülnek fel, a karmesteri pultnál pedig Horváth Balázs és Dukay Barnabás áll. Az Anima Musicae 2010-ben alakult, és azóta több mint száz magyar mű bemutatását vállalta. A zenekar számára a kortárs zene nem pusztán előadás, hanem közös gondolkodás: személyes párbeszédek, inspiráló együttműködések és új zenei utak felfedezése. A Für Anima sorozat 2015-ben indult, és mára a hazai zenei élet meghatározó kezdeményezésévé vált, amelyért az együttes Artisjus-díjat is kapott. A koncertprogram a kortárs zene sokszínűségét mutatja be: a klasszikus forma finom újragondolásától a merész hangzáskísérletekig minden darab más-más zenei világot tár a hallgatók elé. A művek között helyet kap Varga Judit Black and White című kompozíciója, Dukay Barnabás Áthaladva határokon, erdőkön, mezőkön, havasokon az Égi Magasokba című darabja, valamint Mester Dávid Suite Antique és Concerto for Flute című művei, utóbbi szólistája Győri Noémi fuvolaművész. Az est különlegessége, hogy a zenekar minden évben kizárólag számára írt új magyar műveket mutat be, ezzel támogatva a fiatal zeneszerzőket és biztosítva a kortárs zene folyamatos jelenlétét. Az Anima Musicae missziója, hogy a klasszikus gyökerekből kiindulva új zenei nyelveket fedezzen fel, és közel hozza a közönséghez a kortárs alkotásokat.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S. Miller András az egyik oldalon, a másikon pedig a térség kiemelkedő színházi kulturális, zenei szcena résztvevői Egy óra Budapest és Pest megye aktuális kult történeteivel.

This week (Thanksgiving in the US), I'm sharing something simple and soothing . . . a Gratitude Ritual you can do anywhere. It's a short practice that invites a bit of reflection, a few slow breaths, and calls you deeper with about five minutes of raven drone flute to help your whole system settle. Inside, we'll name a past gift, a present support, and a future blessing. If you have the Stones Speak Oracle, you can weave it in; if not, a few small objects work just as well. What you'll experience: - a short, guided gratitude ceremony - an invitation to work with 3 self-selected Crystal/Stone allies. - optional oracle integration for those with the Stones Speak Oracle - 5 minutes of live raven drone flute to soothe your nervous system If you'd like to carry it through the week, choose one word from your ritual (gratitude, ease, courage, etc.) and let that be your anchor.

Sports Daily Full Show 17 November 2025

In this episode of The Black Lincoln Collective Podcast, the crew launches straight into a spirited — and predictably chaotic — debate about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. From arguing over which artists deserve a spot to joking about their own BLC Hall of Fame nomination process, Parker, Fred, and Allan turn music history into comedic fuel. Their riffing includes everything from Prince shoutouts to the logic-defying idea that the Hall might benefit from their personal brand of democracy — or lack thereof. Once they've finished disrupting the music industry, the trio pivots into tech news, where they try (and fail) to make sense of modern AI, glitches, and digital chaos. With lines about unexpected problems “probably being AI's fault,” they unravel the mysteries of the tech world using the only method they trust: complete skepticism and even more complete confusion. The episode eventually spirals into a discussion about health foods, which they approach with the same scientific rigor they apply to everything else — none. They question wellness trends, laugh about suspiciously marketed “healthy” snacks, and explore whether anyone actually knows what they're eating. The deeper they go, the more it becomes clear: health food might be the biggest scam of all, right behind canned yams and Hall of Fame voting. Anchoring it all is the absurd and perfectly fitting title, “Jazz Flute and the Turkey Time Machine.” Like always, the conversation zigzags through culture, nonsense, and accidental insight, delivering the signature BLC blend of sharp wit, random tangents, and proudly unfiltered humor. Whether you came for the music commentary, tech confusion, or health food skepticism, this episode serves up a full plate of Collective-style comedy — unpredictable, unpolished, and undeniably fun #blcpodcast #podcastingforthepeople #funny #podcast #greenvillesc #scpodcast #yeahthatgreenville Listen at: https://americasfavoritepodcast.com Tweet the Show: https://twitter.com/blcworld Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/blcpodcast/ Check us out on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/blcpodcast/ Buy Fred and Allan Beer: https://www.patreon.com/blcworld

Flute 360 | Episode 351: "Vision Beyond Sight with Liz Hargest" In today's episode, Heidi sits down with longtime student, colleague, and dear friend Liz Hargest to explore what it truly means to cultivate artistry, perseverance, and purpose beyond physical sight. Liz, who has been blind since infancy, shares how she learned flute through Braille music, how she approaches memorization, and how she continues to grow as a musician and teacher well into her 70s.

Whether you are navigating obstacles in your own musical journey or simply seeking a renewed sense of clarity and hope, this conversation will meet you where you are. Main Points: Liz's early story and how blindness shaped her approach to learning and independence How Braille music works, how it is formatted, and what it takes to learn repertoire through touch The true purpose of memorization and how it deepens musical expression How patience, long-term memory, and daily habits strengthen artistic growth What Liz's brain injury taught her about teaching, gratitude, and valuing each day Suzuki philosophy and why listening-based learning creates stronger, more intuitive musicians The importance of teaching the whole child—not just the instrument How perseverance, faith, and purpose continue to shape Liz's artistry and life Call to Action: Join us for the next Flute 360 Accelerator LIVE session on Saturday, November 22, 2025 from 11 AM–1 PM CT.

Like you're practicing, posting, teaching, scrolling… and yet something inside still feels off? In this week's episode, we're pressing pause on the noise to talk about how slowing down and tuning into God's voice can reignite your artistry from the inside out. I get it—you're juggling your flute students, auditions, business goals, and maybe even burnout. But what if the next level of your music career doesn't come from doing more—but from being still? In this conversation, I share how I learned to stop consuming endless content (hello, doom scrolling) and start creating from a place of peace, focus, and faith. Together, we'll talk about how to: Reconnect to your artistry through stillness and prayer Recognize when you're overconsuming instead of creating Find clarity and focus by "plugging into" God's direction Let go of frantic productivity and embrace purpose-driven creativity So pour a cup of tea, find a quiet corner, and come sit with me.

Flute 360 | Episode 348: "Movement Is Healing – How Flutists Can Break Free from Stagnation and Step Into Clarity" Have you ever felt stuck in your music career? Like you're waiting for the perfect sign from God before making your next move? In this heartfelt solo episode, Dr. Heidi Kay Begay shares a vulnerable, faith-centered reflection on how movement—both physical and spiritual—can lead to deep healing and renewed clarity. From overcoming a life-changing neck injury to navigating a season of career uncertainty, Heidi unpacks the power of taking small, faithful steps forward. Drawing from Isaiah 40:31, she reminds us that waiting on the Lord isn't about standing still—it's about trusting while moving. If you're a flutist, teacher, or creative who feels paralyzed in decision-making, this episode will encourage you to breathe, move, and watch how God meets you along the way. Main Points: Movement as a pathway to physical, emotional, and career healing How waiting on the Lord can be active faith, not passive idleness The difference between obedience and stagnation Why clarity comes after you move—not before Real examples from Heidi's neck-injury recovery and career pivots How to align your free will with God's direction Scripture Highlight: "But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint."

"The number changes, but as of the writing of this description, only 1883 songs have topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart including all its earlier versions. This week back in 1990, the first rap song topped the chart. That got me wondering how many other firsts and other interesting facts surround the top spot. Here is a list."

Abirami Iyer shares her profound journey from childhood trauma to becoming a breast cancer survivor and advocate. She discusses the challenges she faced, including her mother's struggles with domestic violence, her own diagnosis of invasive lobular carcinoma, and the emotional and physical toll of treatment. Abirami emphasizes the importance of mental health, community support, and self-advocacy in her healing process. She also highlights her upcoming participation in the Mrs. Universe pageant as a platform to raise awareness about breast cancer and domestic violence. When faced with a life-altering diagnosis like cancer, it'seasy to feel like the world is falling apart, and that all of a sudden, your dreams are out of your reach. But Abirami Iyer chose to rise above it.Just around her 40th birthday, Abirami was diagnosed withbreast cancer. Her treatment journey lasted more than two years, filled with both physical and emotional pain. But instead of letting the experience break her, she found a way to grow through it. She used that chapter of her life not only to heal herself, but to guide and support others walking the same difficult road.Abirami is a full-time employee at Microsoft, a wife, andthe mother of two kids. Despite such a full life, she still makes time to uplift and empower others. Through Facebook support groups like Breast Cancer Survivors and Warriors and Washington Breast Cancer Survivors, she helps survivors feel seen, heard, and supported.She also advocates for organizations like DiepCFoundation.org, helping patients navigate one of the toughest battles of their lives. And by collaborating with the Flute ‘n Feather Dance Company, she raises funds to support early breast cancer diagnosis in rural India.But there's still more: Beyond all this, Abirami finds timeto organize confidence-building photoshoots to help survivors rediscover their strength and beauty.She leads “Breast Cancer Awareness Talks and Campaigns” at Microsoft, and has also raised funds for the National Breast Cancer Association by placing Group 2nd on FabOver40. Abirami has been honored with many awards and titles thatcelebrate her confidence and compassion. These aren't just pageant wins — they're platforms she uses to raise awareness, encourage self-love, and inspirehope in other survivors. When sharing the news that she had been awarded the title Mrs. Elite Universe America, she said that her butterfly-themed dress honored the pink ribbons in which she had written the names of the survivors she has met.“It was a walk of honor and I proudly carried theirmessage with me to spread positivity… in humanity,” she says.Get In Touch with Abi:
