It’s never too late to do what you love and to help others do the same!

Today I have the wonderful Katy Abbott who is a music composer, and also has an art education brand, The Artists Mentor, with services including one on one coaching, and other course content.

Katy didn’t start getting into music until her 20s, which goes to show that you can achieve anything! She brings a beautiful cross between her education business and her artistry.

We’re going to explore Katy’s journey and how she manages her magical blend of mentoring artists and composing. We're also going to find out how Katy is forensically curious about what makes us tick. She explores our passions through music, and she explores fears and motivations using contemporary musical flavours in traditional musical settings. Amusing the concepts of connection place and humour, Abbott's compositions are performed and published and recorded around the world.

She has done amazing things across Australia, but also over in the UK and Europe and abroad. She's won numerous prestigious awards, including the Boston Metro Opera Gold Prize for Art Song, as well as the Australia Council of the Arts Fellowship Award. She also has five solo albums of her work on ABC Classics, and Move Records, along with many more musical adventures.

I recently went on a business retreat in Uluru and it was absolutely transformative! I want to talk about "all the things" just for fun, but I also will share the lessons I learned from that experience. Uluru was such a magical place in the Northern Territory of Australia.

Sometimes giving ourselves space to simply think can accelerate our business success. I have 5 key takeaways from my trip which I hope may help you also. Enjoy!

Do you struggle being paid on time from your clients? Do you waste hours upon hours and have sleepless nights chasing the dollars owed to you?

A few years back, a client who was very late in paying her class tuition came into the studio. I said to her at reception "Hey there! I noticed you haven't paid your fees. Are you able to fix that up today?" Back then this was an awkward conversation for me.

She responded to my request for payment by saying "I'm so sorry, I'm broke! I've just gotten back from Bali. And I've just bought myself a new car". No joke, she bought herself a black mustang.

She went on to say "I've just spent all my money on this Mustang and this Bali holiday so I am literally broke". At that moment, I just remember being mute. I was actually shocked. I didn't have a response.

Times have changed ALOT since then. Now I have systems in place to get paid on time, every time from my clients. Listen in to episode 34 of 'Business, Arts and All That Jazz'
