Art and Playing at Carnegie Hall
Editor on 
“Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.” —Thomas Merton
-
- • Host of Express Yourself! and uber volunteer, Brigitte Jia, was selected to play in an orchestra at Carnegie Hall. How did she get there? Yes, it is the old saying, “Practice, practice, practice,” Tune in to find out about art, ideas, and more.
- What is art? Do you think of paintings, sculptures, animation, or museums? What about music, dance, acting, cooking, voice, gardening, speaking, writing, or martial arts? Culinary arts and performing arts are definitely forms of art. Hosts Brigitte Jia and Joven Hundal notice the small things influence what we all consider as art. Brigitte also reads from her chapter, The Gift of Art, from the forthcoming book, Be the Star You Are!® for Boomers and Millennials. Joven finds that history and art are connected. Brigitte recounts her phenomenal and unique experiences playing violin with Davies Symphony, touring in the UK and Chicago, playing alongside Ariel Horowitz and Amos Yang, recording for Torchlight, playing at Carnegie Hall, and more exciting artistic adventures.
Appreciate art for what it is: creativity, skill, and expression. Yes, Express Yourself!

Back to School By Cynthia Brian
Editor on 
Teens talk and the world listens every Tuesday NOON PT on the Voice America Kids Network. Produced by StarStyle® Productions, LLC and Cynthia Brian, these young adults know how to rock and express their unique views. Join the fun!
Welcome to back to school! Can you believe that summer is over? Are you ready for a new school year? Hosts Brigitte Jia and Joven Hundal spend an hour with enlightening information to get your best self ready for this educational season. Sports reporter Katie Lyons asks a pertinent question: “What things am I going to do differently this year?” Fortunately she also offers numerous suggestions to make the following year a great one.
First time author, Fayth Thomas shares real life lessons on positive living including how to provide healthy back to school lunches and snacks with her book, Being the Best You! The book inspires readers to do their part to combat a once-uncommon disease that now, according to the CDC, affects more than 208,000 people under 20 years of age. Being the Best You!explores diabetes in a way that is simple for children to understand, as well as inspires children to strive for career paths that make a difference in their local community.
Brigitte gives a list of ways to be artistic and expressive with pencil cases, binders, collages, and more in Art Attack. Art is simply a form of self-expression, and Back to School provides the perfect window of opportunity for us to remind ourselves that, really, anybody can create art.
BIO: Fayth Thomas is an experienced day-care owner. She lives in the Washington, DC, metro area with her kids, her husband, and their pet fish. Before she started writing children’s books, she specialized in teaching children various things: healthy eating, Spanish, gardening, self-defence, and reading. She specializes in writing a line of books that will educate children with fun bedtime stories. http://www.fayththomasauthor.com/

Those who know nothing of foreign languages know nothing of their own.” -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
– Do you speak another language? Is communicating important to you? Host Brigitte Jia leads a lively conversation with reporters Zahra Hasanian, Joven Hundal, and Katie Choo around the topic of the cultural connections of languages. Learning a second language is actually linked to various health benefits. For example, a study a few years back covered by National Geographic concluded that learning and speaking a second language can stave off Alzheimer’s’ and dementia for four more years. Language gives people hope, and it can also snatch away hope, whether for propaganda or poetry. Technology offers another hurdle as our communications are not face to face.
– Employers are looking for people who can not only speak English well, but also have a somewhat diverse knowledge of languages. Whether it’s sign, music, art, or dance, we are surrounded by language. How you communicate will determine how high you bounce in life.

The Gift of Talk By Cynthia Brian
Editor on
Every week, Express Yourself!⢠will bring you a stimulating program based on a chapter from our award winning book Be the Star You Are!® for Teens.Â
âThe human voice is the most beautiful instrument of all, but the most difficult to play.â Are you a talker? Do you know how to communicate effectively?
Veteran reporter of Health Rap, Alex Pawlakos, joins hosts Asya Gonzalez and Brigitte Jia about how important it is to communicate with your doctor. A doctor can correctly diagnose your symptoms, arrive at a conclusion and a course of treatment, but only if you TALK to him or her. In a world where actions speak louder than words, Artist Jenna Rose Simon proves that the healing act of art and the written word can speak volumes when seen through the eyes of those in need of healing. Jennaâs message is that even if you canât change the world, you can help the life of one person.
As an athlete, Reporter of Lion Roar, Katie Lyons considers talking and communicating to be one of the most important components of sports. Communication between athletes and coaches is necessary for improvement, feedback, and strategizing. Talk Back!
Bio: JENNA Rose Simon
After struggling with an eating disorder for ten years, Jenna Rose Simon began to draw concepts that she felt people werenât understanding in her therapy, starting with her first self-portrait. It was then that Jenna discovered, with the help of her therapist, that drawing would help her and potentially others. Jennaâs sketch depicting verbal abuse went viral and was shared more than 300K times on Facebook. Simon continues to impact others through her Instagram account @gentletouchofart where she shares many of her sketches, including concept art and celebrity pieces. jennarosesimon.comÂ

Blooming through the Creative Process by Marie-Helene Tourenne
Editor on 
Marie-Helene Tourenne and her guest Greg Thatcher discuss his path as an artist, and his special relationship with his favorite subject which is trees. Art as a language and the processes involved in the manifestation of a piece of art work will also be discussed. Greg Thachter who has native american ancestry has studied at the University of Victoria, B.C., Canada, B.F.A. with Distinction and University of Saskatchewan, Canada, M.A. in Painting and Drawing. He has been teaching art since 1979.
For him, the direct experience of an artwork is primarily an internal experience, based solely upon our level of consciousness and our mental impressions and past experiences. Experiencing an artwork with openness can provide us with direct contact with our deeper selves and, at times, a beautiful epiphany that reaffirms the divine.
