ATTENTION Parents of Young Children, Educators & Child Therapists:

ANXIETY FROG is silly, loud, and impossible to ignore—just like anxiety itself. But with Gwendolyn’s guidance, it becomes a movement anthem that helps kids recognize their anxious energy and channel it through their bodies until they can breathe, laugh, and settle again.

This isn’t a quiet lullaby.
This is emotional regulation—with a beat.

Bird & Feather was written to remind you:
Safe spaces aren’t just for lovers.
They’re for you. When the world is too much—
Light a candle. Wrap a blanket around your shoulders.
Put this song on. And come home to yourself.

Bird & Feather is a smooth, expressive jazz instrumental that invites the listener into a space of quiet reflection and effortless motion. Co-written by Jeff Gold and Shanna Forrestall, this piece flows like a river beneath wings—melodic, soulful, and alive.

Sometimes love is loud. But the kind we wrote about in Bird & Feather?
It’s steady. It shows up in the silence. In the arms that stay. The voice that says: Lay down. I’ve got you. This is a song for the ones who hold us when the world feels too big.
