Keynote Topics

India Arie is a four-time Grammy award-winning singer, songwriter, actress, and record producer. She has sold over 10 million records worldwide.

Her new short film “Welcome Home – Crazy/Sacred Space” was created to help calm the nation and bring focus to wellness, peace, tranquility and calmness during the pandemic. Being a fierce spiritual warrior navigating the shadow side of the music industry is a theme explored throughout this profound conversation.

As someone who shares her soul through her work, Lee and India Arie discuss a wide range of topics that include: breaking through past constructs, the wisdom that comes through pain, and the importance of feeling empowered, aligned and free as an artist.

India Arie | Empowerment Speaker

India gives us a deeper look into her ‘Songversation’ practice, the journey into regaining her sovereignty and the paradigm shift she’s experiencing as a result with her art form. By standing publicly for who she is musically and spiritually, she says, “I like where I am when I remember where I am.”

Born in Denver and later relocating to Atlanta as a teen, India.Arie went from “singing under a tree in the park” to the Grammy Awards stage in five years, earning seven nominations for her 2001 double-platinum debut Acoustic Soul featuring her first hit single “Video.”

That was followed in 2002 by the platinum-selling Voyage to India, 2006’s gold-certified Testimony: Vol. 1, Life & Relationship and its 2009 sequel Testimony: Vol. 2, Love & Politics. But despite 21 Grammy nominations, four Grammys and 10 million albums sold worldwide, something was wrong.

She recently embraced the former by expanding Soulbird, her label imprint, into a multi-faceted company housing her other entrepreneurial endeavors: jewelry, apparel, merchandise, film and TV, music and book publishing. She’s also ready again for fans to hear India.Arie, the singer/songwriter.

“I wasn’t ready until now,” India Arie says. “I love where things are on and offstage. I trusted my intuition through every line and note of every song on this album, following the flow. And the ease of the flow is always a sign that I am in the right place, doing the right thing. And that is all I’ve ever wanted. I created SongVersation from that place.”
