Meet Hope Easton

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Hope Easton. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Hope below.

Hope , thanks so much for taking the time to share your insights and lessons with us today. We’re particularly interested in hearing about how you became such a resilient person. Where do you get your resilience from?
Well being born with the name Hope, I am forced to spring eternally.

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
Well I have to say I have my hands in many baskets musically! My number one heart throb is writing, recording and performing my own songs!! I also play cello for many different groups and musiciians/artists. Which is great, because I love a little challenge and it adds to what I do with my own music. I have a new tune that has yet to be released and Im so excited. Still undecided whether I will make a video or just put up a photo. Probably the latter.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
Discipline, will and buoyancy. If you want to create something you have to work on it , like a muscle and going to the gym.
If you really have to make or create something you just do it. okay Nike slogan, but Nike is Greek means Win. So just do the work. practice and discipline.
It is always good to let go and allow the process to happen. Lighten up, have hope and keep on keeping on.
Oh some of the slang of today is kind of fun!

Before we go, maybe you can tell us a bit about your parents and what you feel was the most impactful thing they did for you?
Well probably my Mother asking me if I wanted to play cello. I was the 4th of 4 kids and everyone played an instrument. So I didnt care really I just wanted any instrument to join the syblings on Saturdays and studying music. And when my Mother , Sheila Tarshis, and her Father, David Tarshis nought the Italian instrument I perform today. It is a Landolphi 1776 And my Dad, Dr Allan Easton sending me to New England Conservatory was very important.
