In this episode of openARTed, I sit down with Susan Blum, a professional coach helping musicians and creatives navigate their careers. We dive into some of the biggest challenges artists face - from defining their artistic identity to managing time, finances, and collaboration.
Topics we cover:
What it really means to “know your offering” as a musician Why so many music groups struggle with collaboration and conflict Time management, avoiding burnout, and building financial stability Do you really need to make music your full-time career to find fulfillment?
