Have you ever encountered trolls and critics? In this day and age, anyone who puts anything of themselves out there can get criticized and receive negative comments. Even artists.  

This episode is inspired by one such troll. This is a response to a troll who said, “You have an ugly voice.”  

Negative comments aren’t about you. It’s a reflection of the person spreading negativity. 

Everyone who’s ever done anything significant has faced criticism. You can’t change that. The only thing you can do is decide whether you’ll let them affect you. Will you? 

“You have to love your voice, your style, and your art as it’s developing, as you’re uncovering it, as it is growing.” - Miriam Schulman 

In this short episode, these are the three points I want to leave you with: 

• Marketing and mindset trump talent every time. 

• Stay true to the authentic you. 

• Find your voice, own, and express it. 

“Some people will find fault with you no matter what you do. But if they hate you for your uniqueness, at least they’re hating you for the right reasons.” - Miriam Schulman
