Frances Drost on Music, Marriage, and Finding Hope Through the Holidays

In this episode of Set Lusting Bruce, host Jesse Jackson sits down with musician Frances Drost to explore her remarkable journey in music and personal growth. Frances shares insights from her sheltered upbringing in South Central Pennsylvania and the pivotal influences that shaped her musical career, including her supportive husband and a critical moment at a Nashville music conference. The conversation touches on the balance between creative pursuits and long-term marriage, featuring her experiences from a 35-year marriage with someone who has different interests. Frances talks about the evolution of her songwriting and how the COVID-19 pandemic led her to write and self-publish books. She delves into her struggles with holiday grief after the tragic loss of her siblings, which inspired her second book, 'Portraits of White: Hope and Inspiration for Those Who Struggle with the Holidays'. The episode offers hope and strategies to those dealing with similar issues, emphasizing self-discovery and breaking cultural norms. With gratitude for the host and encouragement for listeners, Frances discusses the importance of addressing one's feelings and creative expression during challenging times. 00:00 Welcome to Set Lusting Bruce 00:44 Meet Frances Drost 00:53 Frances' Musical Journey 02:34 Sheltered Upbringing and Musical Influences 04:13 Discovering Secular Music 08:02 Meeting Her Husband 12:34 Finding Her Musical Voice 20:04 Writing and Publishing Books 23:59 Discovering a Theme of Death in Songwriting 24:40 Connecting Grief and Christmas 25:27 A Radical Approach to Christmas 27:54 The Impact of Skipping Christmas 29:21 Siblings as the Forgotten Mourners 33:33 Creating New Holiday Traditions 35:00 Embracing a New Relationship with Christmas 39:24 Sharing the Journey and Offering Hope 44:29 Final Thoughts and Encouragement https://francesdrost.com https://a.co/d/gmNOMgn Learn more about your ad choices.
