Jacqueline Paolino Gadigian’s Music is Reimagining Healing and Advocacy, One Note at a Time

 Jacqueline Paolino Gadigian—artist, advocate, and founder of Serenity Music Org—is harnessing the power of music to transform women's health, mental wellness, and the environments in which we heal. Known professionally as Shira Lucé, Jacqueline blends artistry with purpose, creating sonic experiences that not only soothe but shift the way we care for ourselves and each other.

With a background in music, nonprofit leadership, and cultural advocacy, Jacqueline has spent over a decade building projects at the intersection of creativity and impact. Her most ambitious initiative to date is the WOMB Music Project, a groundbreaking, multi-artist album designed to support women through key hormonal life stages—especially the postpartum period. Featuring global voices and tuned to 432 Hz, the project merges ambient soundscapes, ancestral rhythms, and intentional storytelling to offer a new kind of care: one rooted in sound, science, and spirit.

The project is deeply personal. After experiencing postpartum depression and navigating the physical and emotional complexity of C-section recovery, Jacqueline turned to music as medicine. What emerged was not only her own healing, but a renewed calling to reimagine the “set and setting” of women’s health experiences—beginning with birth.

Jacqueline is currently curating and executive producing the WOMB Music Project alongside an international roster of composers, vocalists, and sound healers, with the goal of bringing this music into hospitals, wellness centers, and homes around the world. It is the flagship offering of Serenity Music Org, a nonprofit music label she founded to bridge therapeutic music with healthcare, social justice, and storytelling.

As an artist, Jacqueline continues to evolve. Under the name Shira Lucé, she has released intimate, cinematic songs capturing the liminal space between maiden and mother—songs of longing, release, and rebirth. Now, as she steps into her DJ era under the new moniker WOMBRA, Jacquelineis preparing to release a body of work that explores the sensuality, grief, joy, and transformation of motherhood through a dancefloor-ready, disco-inflected lens.

At the heart of all her work is a guiding belief:

“I believe that all women have the divine power to create—children, art, community, peace, or otherwise. The womb is the sacred energy center for creation, and in helping women and mothers heal the womb, we are healing all that women create, which has a ripple effect throughout humanity and the world.”

“I’m just trying to make the world a little better for my daughters,” she adds. “And I know that starts with my own healing—being brave enough to listen inward, and then bold enough to share it out loud.”

Through music, advocacy, and her own embodied transformation, Jacqueline is helping shape a future where women’s health is met with reverence, creativity, and sound that truly heals.
