100 Voices: Aine Cahill - On learning to open up: #NowWereTalking

I’ve always found it hard to open up and talk about my feelings. That’s why I started writing music: I was getting rid of the things I didn’t know how to tell others. Bottling up stuff is soI worked with someone recently, who got me into the habit of setting an alarm at the same time every day of the week saying ‘today’s a good day’. It’s a reminder that those little things I’m worrying about aren’t as bad as I let myself believe they are. It sounds silly but it works for me.
