Flute 360 | Episode 356: "Took a Break? Your Playing Isn't Behind—It's Evolving"

This episode is for the musician returning from a hiatus—short or long. Whether life changed, your energy shifted, or you simply needed space, your playing isn't behind. It's evolving. We talk through comparison, fear, grief, and the gentle curiosity needed to rebuild. Breaks don't erase artistry; they often deepen it.

What We Discuss:

  • Why returning to the flute brings up fear, shame, or comparison
  • How to release old narratives about your "prime"
  • The role of gentleness, curiosity, and presence in rebuilding
  • Why negative thoughts aren't truth—just noise
  • How life experiences enrich your musicianship after a break

Main Takeaway:

A hiatus does not diminish your artistry. You've grown in ways you may not see yet—and that growth will show up in your sound, your expression, and your interpretation.
