Are you waiting until you’re “perfect” before you go for it? In this episode, I dive into the real reason perfection holds musicians back — and why courage is the thing that moves your career forward.
I’ll share my own stories of saying yes when I didn’t feel ready, the lessons I learned from failure, and why the moments I was most scared often became the ones that changed my career the most.
🎧 What you’ll learn in this episode:
• Why perfectionism is secretly self-sabotage
• How courage creates growth (and opportunities)
• Practical ways to step out of your comfort zone
