Flute 360 | Episode 332: "Is It the Universe…or God? Rethinking the Creative Process as a Flutist" In this solo episode, Dr. Heidi Kay Begay invites you into a vulnerable, soulful conversation about creativity, faith, and what it truly means to be a modern-day artist. Inspired by the Flute 360 Accelerator's June book club selection, The Creative Act by Rick Rubin, Heidi reflects on how the book reshaped her understanding of artistry — and how viewing “the Source” through a faith-based lens revealed a deeper truth: that we are co-creators with God. This is not just a book review. It's a gentle nudge for any flutist who's been questioning their identity, comparing their path to others, or wondering whether their art still matters in a season of change or healing. Whether you're playing, podcasting, composing, writing, or resting — this episode will remind you that your creativity is still valid. Still sacred. And still very much needed. Main Points: Why redefining “the Source” as God can ground and deepen your creative process The lie that says “If I'm not performing, I'm not creating” — and how to rewrite that story What it means to be a flutist in a season of injury, recovery, or transformation How to release comparison and show up in your own artistic lane with joy and freedom Why your artistry counts — even if it looks different than it used to How the Flute 360 Accelerator creates a space for flutists to reflect, grow, and connect Resources: Book: The Creative Act by Rick Rubin Join the Flute 360 Accelerator Program: Click Here to Enroll – Tier 1, 2, or 3 Subscribe + Review: If you loved this conversation, please subscribe and leave a review.

Flute 360 | Episode 331: "Create More, People-Please Less with Melvine Naliaka" Have you ever felt like you're saying “yes” to everyone else but “no” to yourself? Maybe you've tried juggling too many roles—educator, performer, entrepreneur—and are left feeling stretched thin and stuck in burnout. Or maybe you're craving permission to finally choose you and prioritize your creativity, but you're unsure how to say “no” without guilt. If any of that resonates, this episode was made for you. In today's heartfelt conversation, Dr. Heidi Kay Begay sits down with Nairobi-based flutist, educator, and entrepreneur Melvine Naliaka, whose story of self-discovery, faith, and resilience will inspire you deeply. Mel opens up about what it means to create space for what matters most, and how she overcame the fear of being seen as “selfish” for putting up boundaries. You'll hear her journey of teaching flute in Kenya, starting a student recorder orchestra, launching a secondhand book business, and learning how to protect her energy—all while staying true to her artistic voice. This episode is a love letter to anyone learning to say “no,” create unapologetically, and live fully aligned with their calling. Main Points: Mel's flute journey: self-taught beginnings and the courage to keep showing up Why people-pleasing leads to burnout—and how to recover from it The importance of saying “no” to others so you can say “yes” to your purpose How to juggle a full-time teaching job with a creative side business What it looks like to build your own artistic path with limited resources The surprising ways business skills can feed your growth as a musician Why relatability and imperfection are powerful tools for connection How to balance faith, boundaries, and kindness as a modern creative Don't Miss the June 28th Flute 360 Live Session!

"In my area of North America, train journeys are relatively rare. Taking a train feels like a special occasion because I only have the opportunity when I'm far from home. I've always enjoyed the exploratory feel of train rides: a train journey feels almost like stolen time, where normal responsibilities are paused and you are given freedom to simply be, if you choose. "I was inspired by the F#-A train horn to create a harmonic home base of the broad key of B (be). Flute and alto flute depicts both the rhythmic train engine (with a nod to Steve Reich's ‘Different Trains') and the melodic way fragments of thoughts and ideas drift in and out when in a meditative state." Trains in Palo Alto reimagined by Margaret Fischer.

Main Points: How faith, food, and friendship sustain us through life's hardest seasons. The connection between energy and your environment: food, people, habits. Caregiving, grief, and the supernatural peace that only God can give. What it really means to steward your body as a temple. Letting go of performance perfectionism and embracing presence in your playing. Redefining success beyond the degree, job title, or performance. Using your music and teaching as a vehicle for ministry and healing. The daily decision to live intentionally—one minute, one rehearsal, one lesson at a time.
