Ep 87: Your Playlist is Trying to Tell You Something with Molly Lord
Have you ever cried to a song and wondered why? Or felt completely transformed after hearing just a few chords? In this conversation with the brilliant and hilarious Molly Lord, we explore how music taps into the deepest parts of who we are.
Molly is the creator of Tuned In Productions and author of Holy Dirt, a memoir about walking 500 miles across Spain’s Camino de Santiago. She shares how our playlists are shaped by the archetypes running our internal show, why a single song can shift our entire state of being, and what it means to use music as medicine.
Topics Covered:
- What your playlist reveals about your inner world.
- How to use music to shift your emotional state.
- The surprising role of archetypes in song choice.
- The moment Molly realized music was more than entertainment.
- How music followed her, even when she tried to leave it behind.
- The three songs on Molly’s life soundtrack.
- Why transitions (like coming home from work) need their own soundtrack.
- What happens when we walk toward something that scares us.
Here are some actions you can take, whether you have 5 minutes or 50:
- If you have 5 minutes, and you want access to the interviews that Molly talked about gifting you during the episode, all you have to do is send an email to mollyalord@gmail.com and mention you heard this on my podcast, and she will send them over!
- If you have 50 minutes, create a playlist that you could use to switch archetypes. Think of the songs that get you out of a funk and immediately make you want to dance or bop around the kitchen. Think feel-good music that makes you smile and puts you in a lighter mood.
