Making It with Chris G.

What does it really take to build a sustainable music career as a woman — from college to touring to thriving as a creative entrepreneur?

In this live AMA session turned podcast episode, Chris Goyzueta sits down with Bree Noble — musician, founder of the Female Musician Academy, host of the Profitable Musician Podcast, and long-time champion for women in music — for a real, no-fluff conversation about what it takes to create a lasting career that supports your life, not just your streams.

🎧 In this episode, we explore:

• Bree’s journey from corporate finance to touring artist to full-time educator

• Why women are crushing it in classrooms — but still underrepresented on stage and in studios

• How Bree found her niche performing for moms and church groups (while parenting herself)

• The “shadow career” trap — and how to know when it’s time to leap

• Why artists need to stop relying on labels and build like businesses

• The truth about social media consistency, email marketing, and fan relationships

• What real allyship looks like for men in the industry

• Bree’s advice for young women designing a music career that works for them

Whether you're a student, indie artist, or music industry pro, this conversation will leave you inspired, informed, and ready to build a career that lasts.
