The Music in Me

Teri R

🎶 Welcome to The Music in Me, a podcast where music isn’t just something you hear—it’s something you feel.

Hi, I’m Teri, your host and fellow music lover. From the moment I first heard a melody, music has been my greatest passion. It’s the soundtrack to my life, and I believe it’s the soundtrack to yours too. Whether it’s a song that makes you dance, a Broadway musical that leaves you in awe, or an anthem that inspires change, music has the power to connect us in ways words alone never could.

On this podcast, we explore it all—chart-topping hits, hidden gems, iconic Broadway shows, and the incredible stories behind the music. I’m here to share my love of all genres and dive into how music shapes our lives, brings us joy, and reminds us we’re not alone.

Every episode is packed with rhythm, heart, and discovery. Whether we’re breaking down wedding dance favorites, celebrating musicals like Mean Girls or Bonnie and Clyde, or exploring anthems of freedom and resilience, there’s always something new to learn and love.

If you’re as passionate about music as I am—or if you’re just curious about the songs and stories that inspire us—then join me for a journey through The Music in Me. Together, we’ll celebrate the beats that bring us together and keep us moving forward.

From my earliest childhood memories to the music that filled my school years, I’m revisiting some of the artists and songs that helped create the soundtrack of my life. We’re going back to the 80s and 90s for Michael Jackson, Tiffany, Debbie Gibson, Bon Jovi, boy bands, girl groups, 90s country, powerhouse women like Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, and Britney Spears, plus some unforgettable songs from movies and musicals. And, of course, I have a few honorable mentions because there are WAY too many artists I loved to fit into one episode! These aren't necessarily the greatest songs ever recorded, they're the songs that bring back memories, moments, feelings, and different versions of me throughout the years. I'll laugh, I'll reminisce, and I may even embarrass myself a little as I look back at the music I grew up with and the songs that still make me want to sing along today! And I'm saving one very special song for the end—one by an artist who has held a special place in my heart for basically my entire life.

I love to sing, but there’s just one problem—I’m way too shy to sing karaoke in front of strangers! In this episode of The Music in Me, I’m talking about some of the most popular karaoke songs and what makes them so much fun to sing, from “Sweet Caroline” and “Don’t Stop Believin’” to “Livin’ on a Prayer,” “Dancing Queen,” “Shallow,” “Mr. Brightside,” and more. Then I’m getting personal and sharing some of my own favorite karaoke songs, including Broadway favorites, Disney songs, powerhouse vocals from Whitney Houston, Adele, P!nk, Sia, Frank Sinatra, and three of my favorite Alicia Keys songs. Some of these songs have special memories attached to them, some I used to sing over and over on my old karaoke machine, and others became favorites from singing them in my bedroom or car while pretending I was the original artist.

The Many Faces of Fatherhood in Musical Theater
In this Father’s Day episode of The Music in Me, I’m diving into the powerful, emotional, and sometimes unexpected ways musical theater portrays fathers and father figures. After doing a Mother’s Day episode celebrating moms in musicals, I knew I wanted to continue the tradition and shine a light on dads this time around. In this episode, I explore songs that show the many sides of fatherhood—fathers dreaming about the future, fathers trying to connect with their children, fathers who aren’t perfect, fathers who sacrifice everything, and the quiet beauty of watching children grow up. Some of these songs are longtime favorites of mine, and others were brand new discoveries I found while researching this episode, and I honestly fell in love with them. From classics like Les Misérables and Fiddler on the Roof to modern favorites like Hamilton, Dear Evan Hansen, and Ragtime, each song adds a different layer to what it means to be a father or father figure. This episode is heartfelt, reflective, and deeply personal as I also take a moment to celebrate the important father figures in my own life. Whether you're celebrating, remembering, or simply reflecting this Father’s Day, I hope these songs from musical theater resonate with you as much as they did with me. SONGS MENTIONED… · Soliloquy from Carousel · Dear Theodosia from Hamilton · Wheels of a Dream from Ragtime · To Break in a Glove from Dear Evan Hansen · Hey Kid from If/Then · Daddy Knows Best from SpongeBob SquarePants: The Musical · Not My Father’s Son from Kinky Boots · Like Father, Like Son from Aida · Dead Man’s Boots from The Last Ship · Bring Him Home from Les Misérables · You’re Daddy’s Son from Ragtime · No Matter What from Beauty and the Beast · Something Was Missing from Annie · Sunrise, Sunset from Fiddler on the Roof What did you think of this episode?

Jonathan Larson: The Dreamer Who Changed Broadway
In this episode of The Music in Me, I’m diving into the inspiring and heartbreaking story of Jonathan Larson, the visionary composer who changed Broadway forever. After recently watching Tick, Tick… Boom! on Netflix, I was reminded just how powerful Larson’s story is—and it also brought back memories of how much Rent means to me personally, since it was the very first Broadway show I ever saw. I explore Larson’s journey as a struggling artist in New York who dreamed of bringing rock music and real-life stories to the Broadway stage. I talk about the autobiographical musical Tick, Tick… Boom! and how it captures the fear, passion, and pressure that come with chasing a creative dream. Then I dive into Rent, the groundbreaking musical that would go on to transform Broadway with its raw storytelling, unforgettable songs, and themes of love, friendship, and chosen family. I also reflect on the tragedy of Jonathan Larson’s sudden death at just 35 years old—right before Rent opened—and the incredible legacy he left behind. From influencing modern musicals to inspiring artists everywhere, Larson’s impact is still being felt today. This episode is about passion, perseverance, and the power of creating something meaningful. What did you think of this episode?

“Brave” by Sara Bareilles: A Song Analysis
In this episode, I dive deep into one of the most empowering songs of my life: “Brave” by Sara Bareilles. This song didn’t just inspire me — it helped transform me. I’m sharing how it pushed me out of my insecurity, helped me find my voice, and even gave me the courage to handle a very uncomfortable work conversation (thank you, Sara!). Join me for a heartfelt, funny, and honest look at the lyrics, the message, and the impact this anthem had on my own journey toward confidence and self-expression. If you’ve ever needed a little push to speak up or step into who you really are, this episode is for you. Sara Bareilles - Brave (Official Video) What did you think of this episode?
