Growing up in a conservative, fundamentalist home, music was Lyndie Walker’s only doorway to self-expression. Today, she shares how her most powerful transformation didn’t begin with a business plan… but with the moment she was ready to become the person she really was all along.
Today, Lyndie is the founder of ToneWorks, a thriving music therapy practice born from sheer necessity when no traditional job existed for the work she felt called to do. What began as two young therapists carving out space in an industry that didn’t quite “get it” has grown into a powerful, purpose-driven organization redefining what connection and healing look like.
In this episode of REWARD: The Podcast of The Trust, host Ali Brown sits down with Lyndie for a soul-forward conversation about reinvention, womanhood, and the sacred unraveling that happens when your personal and professional lives evolve at the same time. They dive into the realities of female entrepreneurship, navigating divorce, rebuilding identity, and the life-changing importance of surrounding yourself with a community where you don’t have to carry it all alone.
This is a heartfelt, deeply personal episode about choosing truth, honoring your own becoming, and building a business – and a life – that finally feels like home.
On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:
• How Lyndie’s restrictive upbringing sparked her passion for connection, community, and creative expression• The origin story of ToneWorks and how she transformed a lack of industry opportunities into a thriving business for the neurodiverse community• The real challenges women face as founders — and how Lyndie rebuilt her identity through major personal transformation (we loved this part)• Why a supportive, aligned community like The Trust was pivotal for Lyndie to stop ‘shrinking her dreams just to be relatable’• AND Lyndie’s powerful realization that success isn’t external but the inner freedom to love who you’ve become.
