Description

Let’s be honest: sometimes what’s holding us back isn’t lack of talent, it’s avoiding the truth.


In this episode, I’m sharing the unfiltered advice I’d give you if I wasn’t afraid of hurting your feelings — because sugar-coating doesn’t create progress.


We’ll talk about:


• Why talent doesn’t guarantee success


• The difference between busy and effective


• How avoiding discomfort is secretly costing you gigs


• The harsh realities of professional musicianship no one talks about


• And what to actually do if you feel stuck right now


This episode is full of hard-won wisdom from years on the road, in studios, and navigating the ever-changing music industry. It’s the truth I wish someone had told me sooner.


💬 Listen in. Get uncomfortable. And grow stronger because of it.
