Most jazz pianists aren’t stuck because they’re lazy.

They’re stuck because they’re working very hard on the wrong things.

In this episode, I talk about why putting in more hours doesn’t always lead to better results — and why that gap between effort and progress can feel absolutely crushing. I share personal experiences from my own journey (both in jazz piano and beyond) and explain what’s really happening when you’re practicing consistently but still feel stuck.

Proficient Jazz Pianist (PJP), is the complete step-by-step system for building real jazz piano skills — comping, solo piano, and improvisation — without jumping between random lessons or getting lost in information overload.

If you want a clear, structured path for what to practice and how to turn what you already know into something playable, you can learn more here:
