Episode 65

Greetings friends and welcome to this week’s episode!

For this podcast, I wanted to dive into an issue that rarely gets addressed for artists and musicians and that is how to pursue your passion for music as a parent.

Let’s face it, being a parent is challenging. Not only is a lot of your time dedicated to raising a child (children) but it can also take up a lot of your energy. Especially the little ones!

I myself am a parent and have dealt with many of these challenges when it comes to learning how to stay productive and creative in music whilst staying active in your children’s lives.

Just because you are a parent doesn’t mean you have any less reason to pursue music as your passion. It is still very much a reality for you, especially in this day and age.

You may not have the same freedoms you once had before kids but that’s not a bad thing. Arranging your life and setting up new habits to keep music in the forefront for you is very achievable.

In This Podcast You Will Learn:

1). Why becoming a parent can be traditionally perceived as a “show stopper” when it comes to pursuing your passion for music and why this isn’t true.

2). Why your most important asset as a parent still pursuing music will be time management and scheduling.

3).How using the technologies of today (skype, file sharing etc) make it possible for you to still stay creative and productive towards growing interest in your music and collaborating with other people.

4). Why remembering your reasons for pursuing music in the first place will help you push through during challenging times and knowing that it is still very much a possibility for you to create and pursue music as a parent.

Thanks again for joining me on this week’s episode. If you are a parent or are “soon to be” one, then I hope you found this week’s episode valuable.

As mentioned before, becoming a parent doesn’t mean that you have to put your career on hold. There are plenty of ways to still pursue music just like everyone else.

The trick is knowing how to adjust your life to being both an amazing parent and a passionate artist at the same time.

Til Next time, peace n love!

Mike
