Lori Karsch | The Other Side – Song Inspired by Torn Wide Open

Picture of a sunset over floridian waters

A compassionate musical companion for anyone learning to breathe again after loss, guilt, or years of feeling "not enough"

About 'The Other Side'

This song follows the emotional arc woven through Torn Wide Open:
the confusion, the guilt, the long years of feeling unseen… and the profound shift that happens when you finally choose yourself.

Its heartbeat comes from the same place as Lori’s writing:

the moment you come up for air
the moment you stop fighting a war you never deserved
the moment you realize you can step forward, stronger than before

Let this song be part of that moment for you.
