In today’s world, music serves many purposes beyond just entertainment; it brings people together, fosters community, and, in some cases, becomes a lifeline for those in need. The latest episode of our podcast features Brenda Justice, the Founding President and Chairperson of Power of a Dream, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping those affected by domestic violence. Through her work with both the Power of a Dream and the Akron Symphony Orchestra, Brenda highlights the transformative power of community and music, encapsulating the essence of empathy and activism rooted in passion.
Brenda's journey into the world of music and advocacy began with a love for classical music and a commitment to making a positive impact in her community. She shares how her background in music led her to the Akron Symphony Orchestra, where she coordinates choral activities and brings together various musical genres such as gospel and classical. Her personal experiences have been intertwined with her professional growth, leading her to found Power of a Dream, which aims to empower individuals and advocate against domestic violence. Brenda sheds light on the various challenges that individuals facing domestic violence encounter, explaining the crucial role that awareness, education, and mentorship play in their journey towards recovery and healing.
Through her work, Brenda emphasizes the importance of reaching out to those in need and the responsibility communities have to uplift their members. She draws on her experiences from leading events like their annual gala, fostering connections among individuals who might otherwise feel isolated. Brenda's commitment extends beyond just helping; she aims to create a nurturing environment where individuals can express their dreams and aspirations freely. In our conversation, she provides insights on how the organization started, detailing the serendipitous moments that brought her closer to her mission, from listening to victims' stories to collaborating with legal advisors to advocate for individuals caught in the web of domestic violence.
What’s particularly remarkable is how Brenda connects music to healing. She stresses that music is not only a form of art but a therapeutic tool that can ignite hope and foster self-expression. As she discusses her role at the Akron Symphony Orchestra, Brenda highlights their efforts to create a melting pot of cultures, showcasing how music can transcend differences and unify people under a shared passion for creativity. In this episode, Brenda's story serves as a powerful reminder that anyone can be a beacon of hope, and she challenges listeners to reflect on their passions and consider how they might help others in their community.
The conversation also touches on the importance of personal growth, patience, and empathy in advocacy work. Brenda candidly shares her transition from a private individual to a public speaker and leader within her organization, describing her journey of overcoming fear and embracing her role as a community advocate. The episode instills a sense of urgency for each listener to contribute to positive change, encouraging them to explore their own passions and how those could impact others. Brenda’s empowering journey is not just an inspiration; it is a call to action for everyone to harness their abilities for the greater good.
