226 Stuck or Soaring? What Musicians Gain When They Bet on Themselves

May 19, 2025

In this episode, I explore one of the most important (and most avoided) questions musicians face: Is investing in yourself really worth it?

You'll hear:

• How to tell the difference between an expense and an investment
• The hidden cost of staying stuck
• Why self-investment often leads to faster, deeper growth
• Real stories from clients who hesitated and what changed when they said yes
• The mindset shift that helps musicians build lasting progress

If you’ve been feeling like you’re doing everything you can but still not moving forward, this episode offers a fresh perspective and a path toward momentum.

Enrollment is now open for The Music Mastery Experience, my signature yearlong coaching program.
