EconomyBeat Podcast #10: Odd Job- Sound Healer
February 15, 2010roman Comments Off
In this episode of EconomyBeat, we have stories from people who have a very specific niche jobs, which is often a good game plan in tough times. Do something you love and something unique, and you’re probably better off than most of us. The person you will hear from in this story is KellyAnne, and she’s a sound healer. But I also want to highlight the person you won’t hear, the producer Evan Roberts. He has also found an interesting niche vocation. Evan’s company Audio Heirlooms creates custom made, intimate, NPR-style audio portraits for private individuals and businesses. Families pay him to chronicle a birth or a wedding so their story is preserved. It’s pretty brilliant and, it turns out, very successful. Anyway, so this piece is not an Audio Heirloom, it’s actually from another series Evan made for the website SFist about San Francisco Odd Jobs. And it’s amazing, and not because it’s about a sound healing, I generally don’t truck with any of that stuff, but this piece is so great because listening to KellyAnne do her sound healing will chill you out. So be prepared to relax into this one.
