LISTEN WITH YOUR HEART
“Breathe” looks back on a moment where Sweeney found peace in the middle of a panic.
While wandering through Manhattan, she found herself in a state of spiralling anxiety.
“I was walking through all the hustle and bustle happening in the streets, and then it hit me. I was having a panic attack! I realized it was because I was on my damn phone, missing the true experience of the city. So, I put my phone away and took a deep breath. That simple act of breathing helped to slow things down and give me a chance to truly appreciate what I was experiencing. This song is a reminder to take a moment to be present in whatever moment you’re in.”
Your will be done
“Your Will Be Done is a song that represents the emotion around being a single woman in your 30's, having big dreams, a big calling, a big work ethic, and trusting all along that your desires will be filled by someone bigger than you.”
Believing in Love
"Believing In Love is a story about the 'honeymoon phase' passing and deciding if this is THE relationship important enough to fight for. Even on the hard days, there is nothing that will make you stop believing in the love you are worthy of.
