Description

🎧 This one’s a wake-up call. In this episode, I’m breaking down the sneaky ways we self-sabotage in our music careers — and how to stop.


From fear disguised as logic to procrastination dressed up as “research,” this is a raw, real talk on the hard truths most musicians avoid. If you’ve ever said:


👉 “There’s no work out there”


👉 “I’m just not ready yet”


👉 “I’ll focus on this after [insert excuse here]”


...then this episode is a must-listen.


Inside, we’ll talk about:


🔥 Why confirmation bias is stalling your career


🔥 How to build confidence without fake hype


🔥 Using jam nights, content, and community on purpose


🔥 Why perfectionism is the enemy of progress


🔥 How to replace passive hope with meaningful action


🎯 You’ll leave with honest strategies to stop unintentionally killing your own momentum — and a reminder that you're capable of so much more.
