Module 2: : CONFIDENCE. Step Up Your Confidence – Mindsets & Methods

If you’re like any artist I work with you struggle with your confidence. You wrestle with it every day. Just like Adele who said on 60 minutes that she struggles with performance nerves, most great artists do. Whether you are at the beginning or at the top, you get nervous because you care. It’s a part of being great at what you do. But getting your nerves and your mindset under control are a critical component of your success.

Module 4: Step Up Your Game Plan – You are the CEO of YOU, Inc.

The single most common mistake I see across the board is waiting to be discovered. Unfortunately waiting for the “big break” makes artists WAIT! The trick is to realize that success comes from their own efforts, it is not “outside of themselves” or “reliant upon others”. The music industry has changed and you have to change with it. The BIG secret is that you have more power than you think when you know how to build your career and your platform the right way. Having a plan is the key to success in this new paradigm of “direct-connect” from artist direct to fan.
