Woman''s music is her therapy
Warren musician hopes to give encouragement to other abuse victims

Eyes of an Angel
Kristin Glasgow''s CD, "Eyes of an Angel," was written to inspire women to be strong enough to leave violent relationships. The CD is on sale at local music shops, at the Music Achievers Conservatory in Sterling Heights, or online at https://www.tradebit.com. A portion of proceeds from the sales will benefit Turning Point.
STERLING HEIGHTS -- It seems like not long ago, Kristin Glasgow was a nine-year-old starting out on her first piano lesson at Vanessa Chasney''s Sterling Heights home.
But now that Glasgow has released her first CD, one that deals with her struggle and escape from an abusive marriage, Chasney said she remembers seeing that determination early in her former student/now assistant teacher''s life.
"We knew (Glasgow) was talented and (the CD project) has really inspired her and others, too," said Chasney, who runs the Music Achievers Conservatory in Sterling Heights. "If anything was to ever happen to me, she can run my school. ... No one has been as dedicated as Kristin."
Glasgow, who had her last visit with her counselor two months ago at a domestic abuse shelter in Mount Clemens, now considers herself a survivor. And she shares that story in her recently released CD, "Eyes of an Angel."
"It''s all such a blur," said Glasgow, 24, who lives in Warren. "I mean, the CD is done and I did my first concert already and I have another one coming. It''s just amazing."
After suffering through a five-year abusive relationship, which included a 3 1/2 month marriage, Glasgow found the strength to leave her husband, she said. Glasgow said she found solace in three things: her family, her counselor at Turning Point, and her music.
Her CD, which was released earlier this year, has several songs -- including "Freedom," "Strong," and "Now and Forever," -- encouraging women to have faith in themselves.
The project preceded Glasgow''s marriage, she said. Glasgow was approached by music writer and producer Rich Vogellehner, who was looking for a lyricist and female singer. Glasgow took on the project, but said her fiance at the time kept her from committing to it.
"Even when they were engaged, it was hard to work because she had excuse after excuse as to why she couldn''t make it," Vogellehner said.
But after filing for divorce, and retreating to her parents'' home in northern Michigan, Glasgow said music became her therapy. Vogellehner would send her instrumental CDs in the mail and Glasgow said she would sit in her room and just write for hours.
"I think God guided me; everything just flowed," she said. "Once I left him, I had all this free time. Music was my focus and I was finally able to finish the CD."
Glasgow soon after returned to the area, began recording her CD and resumed her teaching position at the Music Achievers Conservatory in Sterling Heights. Glasgow also teaches at a Montessori in Mount Clemens. But she hopes to create an organization to help women escape abusive relationships and give them resources to rebuild their lives, she said.
"I really believe this is my calling," she said. "I had to go through the good, the bad and the ugly to get here."
Glasgow has dedicated a portion of the proceeds from her CD sales to Turning Point. She also had given a copy of the CD to her counselor, who listened to it and bought 22 more to pass out to other counselors and victims, Glasgow said.
The music would definitely help inspire women that are victims of domestic abuse, according to Turning Point officials.
"It''s really encouraging and cathartic when people find out there are women who have gone through similar experiences," said Jenny Schultz, director of community development. "That''s a main tactic for (abusers), to isolate the women and make them feel like nobody cares.
"When the women find out that they''re not alone and people believe them, it''s empowering."
