  • From Opera to Entrepreneur: Gwendolyn Kuhlman tells her story

    After moving back to the US, I began to realize that performing opera wasn't the whole story for me and that trying to "make it" in opera was having me put my whole life on hold.

    So I got pregnant.

    Becoming a mother opened up the way I express myself publicly in a massive way. Soon after my son was born, I started writing poetry on Instagram. You can read more about that journey here. I've become a firm believer in the way that the act of creating shapes us into people with purpose and power.

    Power to create more. Power because we realize that we matter. And that begins to answer the big questions that arise when, for example, you left a career you'd been pursuing your whole life. In LA and Oakland, I was struck by the desperation of inequality in my home country. Especially when it came to housing.

    I began wondering how I can use my skillset from the opera and concert stage to have any impact on this crisis. I found my answer in The Winter's Journey Project. You can learn more about it and how it is still growing here.
