From Finance Bro to Full-Time Musician: Owning Your Story in Dating

Update: 2025-09-18

Description

I’m joined by musician Brett Altman, who recently left his finance career of 9 years to finally pursue music full-time and discovered that owning your story can completely change the way you date. We get into why you should never shrink yourself for someone who sees parts of you as a red flag, how to actually meet people IRL (yes, even at a bar), and what it takes to make a friends-with-benefits situation successful. Brett shares his journey from Hoboken “finance bro” to musician, and how his viral track Pretty Long Island Girls is sparking real conversations about love, dating, and connection outside the apps. @brettaltmanmusic
