Talk It Out with Jodi Leib

At Coachella, I sat down in
the desert day with my girly-girl Sterling Mire, chanteuse
extraordinaire... a glamorous and gifted, sassy and intelligent woman
with only one word coming to mind to enlighten it all - wicked!
Jodi: Hi Sterling. Sterling: Hi Jodi. Jodi: Where does your character come from? Sterling: My character comes from when I got really present to when magic was happening in my life and I started looking at all those magical moments, I looked at what were the ingredients there. That's when I saw that the catalyst or the cause came from who I was being at that time. Jodi: Who were you being then and who are you being now? Sterling: The difference between then and now was when the magic happened in the past it wasn't necessarily a conscious choice it was an accident. Now, because of my awareness I have a choice and it's something that everyone has a choice about if they awake themselves to it...in other words, we all have a say in our destiny. Jodi: How did you come to your awakening? Sterling: By wanting more magic in my life. Jodi: What are you choosing to create? Sterling: Full self expression, freedom, liberation from the past, through the transformation of music. That's my vehicle of choice for that destination. |
Jodi: You are so
brilliant. How would you describe your self expression?
Sterling: Transcending any worldly limitations at the same time embracing my humanness and the limitations of the physical body. Jodi: Your name Sterling is very self-reflective - why or how did you choose that name?Sterling: I don't know if I want to answer that question. Jodi: Why not? Sterling: Because it's very in-depth. Jodi: Who or what do you attribute your spiritual awareness to? Sterling: The everything or nothing that exists simultaneously. Jodi: If you could accomplish anything in this world, what would it be? Sterling: Liberating everyone on this world from their limitations and the prisons, being that the only real prison is the one that exists within themselves. Jodi: Does this one go to eleven? Sterling: Always and beyond. Jodi: Thank you, Sterling and good luck at your show. Sterling Mire performs in Los Angeles.
