Most of you may have noticed that since the end of the Spring college semester, I’ve been on a brief hiatus. I have still have many plans for many episodes. Please reach out if you have anything specific you would like me to address as we start back up. In the meantime, I have been actively going to everyone’s concerts and Scrolling through all of the many online musical influencers to try to pick up some trends. One thing I might press is just a financial side of things that maybe we don’t talk about as clearly. A future podcast that I have brewing in my head would be to discuss my own finances and how I navigate them. Another is looking at the variety of options for careers we choose with our musical backgrounds. There really isn’t a linear path for success. I have been struck recently but the folks I have known in my area and how they have navigated the workplace. Thanks again for coming to the site and listening. I look forward to publishing again soon.
This relates to the post of from earlier. Lux Life has awarded intentional musicianship some awards https://lux-life.digital/winners/intentional-musicianship-llc/ for the year. I didn’t pay a penny for them, I did them in part just to see how some of these things work. What do you all think?
For the folks asking themselves, where did Episode 38, What is this degree for, Go. It is being published two weeks today on January 14th. Episode 37 released today and I inadvertently scheduled to publish in January 2025 not January 2026. Please reach out and I will send it to you if you want to listen now and if what you downloaded or expected to listen to will not play.
There is a good story to this for a future podcast episode but the fun side of this is that LuxLife magazine Creative & Visual Arts Awards 2025 has presented Intentional Musicianship with the Best Music Education Support & Performance Development 2025 LUXlife Music Industry Mentorship & Professional Growth Excellence Award 2025
We didn’t pay for it or seek it out, so we will take it. They announce and will place us on there website in February…they are a for profit company that offers upsells for these awards…oh my… sounds like a few other lists and competitions that you pay to be a part of… everyone is trying to stand out and take your money to help you? One reason I started this business was to stay in the game and experience things like this…
