This week on Music Is My Mantra, I’m talking about saying yes—even when it feels awkward. Recorded right from my car (because life is busy!), this solo episode is all about how showing up, even solo, leads to genuine connection and surprising opportunities.
From running into friends at local shows to landing three gigs in 24 hours without sending a single cold email—this one’s proof that community and play open doors you didn’t even know were there.
If you’ve ever hesitated to go to something alone, felt stuck in the “no’s,” or wanted to invite more magic into your creative life—this one’s for you. 💫
