Today's episode is part of a three-way podcast takeover, featuring myself, Nicola Cantan (of Vibrant Music Teaching), and Tim Topham (of Integrated Music Teaching).

We are all tackling the question of, "What three things you would change right now if you could?" and - let me tell you - our answers are ALL distinct and thought-provoking. You'll want to listen to all three podcasts, because they'll give you plenty things to ponder all summer long.

Catch MY three responses on Tim's show, The Integrated Music Teaching Podcast. You can find HIS responses on Nicola's show, The Vibrant Music Teaching Podcast. That means you'll find Nicola featured here today on the Beyond Measure Podcast.

Phew! SO MUCH FUN.
