Tim Ringgold - Adversity Is The Instructor

Imagine surviving the murder of your 5 friends and facing addiction head-on, only to realize these hardships were preparing you for an even greater adversity. 

My guest Tim Ringgold is a TEDx speaker, author, and owner of Sonic Divinity Music therapy.  Having studied the healing elements of music in preterm and childbirth experiences, pain management and addictions, Tim’s passion for music turned out to be one of the greatest gifts he could give his child.

Tim understands the gifts and the complexities of parenting a child with a severe disability, what it means to find hope, lose hope and feel helpless.  Pulling out his secret weapon that is proven to reduce stress, diminish the experience of pain, and help cultivate resilience, Tim found a way to connect with his daughter Bella preterm, during childbirth and in her final days. 

Tim would suggest, “when we have a human experience with music, we realize we are not alone”.  Join us for this episode to discover how Tim and his wife walked through this season of their lives and the resilience practices that helped them heal after loss.
