“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “New Beginning Beats (2026)”!

Hi, everyone!

Happy New Year!

Whether you celebrate New Year’s or went to bed early, the turning to the new page of the calendar does bring with it the turning to new pages of all sorts of chapters. Many deadlines happen at the end of the year. Many projects don’t begin until the start of the year. These can be outside decisions outside of our control, but they can also be convenient time markers for our own decisions.

All these endings and beginnings also make it a prime time to take some of our own steps. We can start anew anytime we want, even if it’s just step by step… those steps add up!

So let’s motivate ourselves to take that step as we step to the beat into the new year to a batch of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “New Beginning Beats (2024)”!

Hi, everyone!

New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day are both symbolically and literally times when we start anew. Sometimes by our own choice. Sometimes by the choices of people around us who decide that date is as good a date as any. Whether it’s thrust upon you or you chose to begin a new chapter, either way towards the end of January… that’s when it can start to turn. Maybe there’s more of a learning curve than you’re used to. Maybe you’re not getting the results you hoped for. Maybe, for whatever reason, you’re just getting sick of it.

Whether you’re excited, venting, or just want to reignite that spark inside you, we’ve got tunes for you, as we jam to a batch of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Curious Choruses (2022)”!

Hi, everyone!

I wondered for a while what to make the theme for this week. We’re in the middle of summer, but the “big” summer holidays have ended, and many of us are already planning for what’s coming up in the fall or beyond. What we do now is up to us… so what to do?

Maybe you’re waiting for something. Maybe you’re working toward something. Maybe you took a risk. Maybe you’re going for something that is, in one way or another, a big question mark.

Then I realized… the question is the answer!

Hear me out on this.

Wonder no longer, as we jam to a cavalcade of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Marvelous Motivational Melodies (2022)”!

Hi, everyone!

We’ve all had times when we’ve decided to pursue a new goal, forge a new path, or just leave something that’s not making us happy, not helping us, or holding us back. Some people use New Year’s resolutions, the start of a new month, the start of a new season, their birthdays, or any other sort of momentous milestone as a symbolic “starting line” for turning the page.

But you don’t need any sort of special occasion to start writing a new chapter in our lives. But, if you need a jam session, you’re in luck, because we’re about to jam to a magnificent mix of…
