Jessica Browning is an American singer songwriter harpist, who has spent the last 5 years living on her sailboat with her husband, baby boy, and three harps traveling the world while sharing her journey of healing and hope through music. Alongside performing across the globe, she is also a motivational speaker, giving talks on how we can use music and embodiment practices to regulate our nervous systems and come back into our bodies. As she prepared for her speaking tour at various universities in the United States, she decided to go back to graduate school and study music therapy, with special interest in the journey toward healing from trauma.
