Sasha's story is the kind that feels almost made-up, except it’s entirely real. She began writing music at the age of just ten years old, driven by a quiet determination and a natural gift for melody and lyrics. Her big break came in the most unexpected of ways: through a Reddit post that went viral when she was only 18. In the comments, she casually dropped a link to her SoundCloud… and the rest is history. Soon after, the very same music executives who discovered Bruno Mars came calling.
From there, Sasha moved to Los Angeles and began carving out a name for herself, not just as a recording artist, but as a songwriting powerhouse. She’s penned hits for some of the biggest names in pop, including Dua Lipa, Charli XCX, and Camila Cabello. And when she steps into the spotlight herself, her music is raw, introspective, and unflinchingly honest, earning her a devoted following and critical acclaim.
But behind the music is a family, a foundation, and a mother who helped nurture her creative spark from the beginning.
In this episode, Noreen joins us to talk about Sasha’s early years, the surprising road to success, and what it's like to watch your child find their voice—and share it with the world. Plus find out the interesting thing the mother/daughter duo love to spend time together these days!
