Thanks for sticking with me through this 5 day challenge! Today, we recapped a bit about the three pillars of Time, Money, and Joy that are available for us to adjust all the time, within our portfolio careers. I hope you've been able to take a little bit of agency around these pillars this week! Here’s my question - NOW WHAT? What are you going to do with the time you’ve created, the income you’ve improved, the space you’ve opened up by saying NO? What is the project you really want to see in the world? Is it an artistic project? An educational one? Is there a new income stream you want to build for yourself? Because it is UP TO YOU. ​ Today I opened early enrollment for the Happiest Musician Accelerator, a three month program that helps musicians to uncap their income and thrive in their creative career.​ I invite you to book a call with me so we can chat about what is going on in your life, what you hope to create, and whether the program is a good fit for you. In my experience, I’ve found that this d

I'm sharing my live challenge with you this week! Listen along to snippets of our daily live sessions: Seeking Work Life Balance for the Working Living Musician!  Today we talked about how hard it can be for us, as musicians, to make our livings and how we all do a million things both artistic and non-. The OPPORTUNITY I see here is that because we are doing so many things, because all of those things are within our power to start and stop, we can CHOOSE to optimize our portfolio to create the life we want, with our own mix of creativity, artistry, financial ease, rest...

I'm offering a FREE Five Day Challenge starting March 25. Seeking Work-Life Balance, for the WORKING, LIVING Musician. We'll meet on zoom (or you'll enjoy the replay) every day to look at how you could intentionally rebalance your pillars of MONEY, TIME, and JOY and thrive in your creative career! Register here   Today you'll hear my interview with Brendan Slocumb, whose life was changed by the books he wrote during the pandemic!  I read the Violin Conspiracy a year or so ago, on the recommendation of a non-musical friend. When your thriller, based in the world of classical music, is picked up and enjoyed by people outside of our insular little world, and when it has something really important to say about money and family and race and music and about the world we live in now - that is something we should all be paying attention to!    Brendan Nicholaus Slocumb was raised in Fayetteville, North Carolina. He is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a degree in mu

I love performing, but when it comes in a surge like it has this week, it reminds me that the cap exists. This is beyond the maximum amount of time I can spend playing in orchestras.

It's incredible to speak with Helen Cha-Pyo because she is so filled with joy and wisdom.  Her optimism about the next generation of humans is inspiring, as is her mission and story. This is a feel-good episode if I've ever recorded one!  What is YOUR artistic mission statement? You'll want to lean into this question as you listen to Helen's story! Helen H. Cha-Pyo, the current Artistic Director and Principal Conductor of the Wharton Institute for the Performing Arts, leads an organization that serves nearly 2,000 students from 12 New Jersey counties. Her impactful leadership spans across four key programs: the Wharton Performing Arts School, New Jersey Youth Symphony, New Jersey Youth Chorus, and the Paterson Music Project. In her role as the Principal Conductor of the New Jersey Youth Symphony (NJYS), she has led tours to Italy and France, championing the performance of works by women and BIPOC composers, effectively amplifying the voices of underrepresented composers.

Ian Campbell is a composer, pianist, teacher and partimenti expert and teacher.  Partimenti is one of the most efficient tools ever developed for teaching music creatively, but was discarded and has almost been lost. Ian first encountered partimenti studying in Paris, France with disciples of Nadia Boulanger and has been learning, practicing, and teaching partimenti for more than 10 years.  WHY didn't I know anything about this? I'm DELIGHTED to have had this conversation. I feel smarter already...   Visit Ian's website, Instagram, or Facebook, or sign up for his newsletter.    Thanks for joining me on Crushing Classical!  Theme music and audio editing by DreamVance.

Dr. Tonya Lawson is a musician, blogger, and SEO specialist whose mission is to empower musicians and other creatives to build out passive income streams so they have the financial freedom to live the life they want to live.  She works part time at Middle Tennessee State University, runs a private music studio of 50+ students, has 3 blogs, and through her membership, helps musicians get their websites found on google so they can book more gigs, get more students, and earn passive income along the way! We talked about  1. Why musicians should be diversifying their income and how to set up passive income streams without sacrificing your music career.  2. How to use a blog to bring new people to your website (without having to constantly promote it on social media). 3. How to add additional monetization to your private studio with affiliate income. And this was SOO deliciously geeky for me. I loved our conversation and I know you will too!  Find Tonya at her website, instagram, or Youtube.  Sign up for her free
