In Episode 22 of the Guitars & Granola Bars podcast, I’m chatting with music therapist William Murray. Bill talks about the challenges of being a male in a female-dominated field, how making the decision to start a family ignited his passion for working in pediatrics, and the rock band he started which is doing some extraordinary things.
