On recording with JB Eckle at NAMM

You can accomplish GREAT things.. but why are you in a hurry? Reaching success takes time! Once the excitement of the start wears off, it's easy to go astray.. Now it's frustrating and you need to FIND A SOLUTION! Instead of playing Web MD for your craft to find an answer... it's time to slow your roll and come back to your foundations and reach out for help. You might even find opportunities where you least expect them.  In this week's episode, I get into why we become fatalist when things don't go our way, how we should take on the mindset of climbers on Mt Everest, and how a better foundation will make every setback less painful.

Goals? What if YOU were your own goal. This week I go UNSCRIPTED for the first time, one of my goals. And I share how visualizing the future you can help you overcome your goal blocks.

This week we're diving into our STRENGTHS.  I'll dive into why we should stop focusing on our faults, how they they aren't faults in the first place, and then guide you through an exercise that helped ME reframe how I viewed the world last fall. It's a powerful tool that will help you fortify the strengths you already have.   http://www.thepodcastersforum.com

I'm biting the bullet and going straight into trauma responses, I'll be sharing what they are, how they happen, and then giving a perspective into the Will Smith, Chris Rock, Oscar situation that only a person who is intimate with the destruction of trauma responses can give: one of hope and empathy.

The beginning of anything doesn't have to be great. You JUST have to FINISH it. Why strengthening your muscle to finish messy things is one of the most powerful tools you have as a creator.

Gritty Birds has been missing the road, and frankly missing producing new episodes. So, we're taking things on the road in a whole new way thanks to the creator my interface, RME.  This is day 1 of NAMM, featuring 3 of the artists working and performing at RME's 2020 NAMM booth: Pete, Justine and Adam.  We talk resiliency, our love of gear and production and set the tone for a unique trade show series, where I'll be interviewing close to 50 artists and creators for the brand.

In episode 2 of Season 3 of Gritty Birds we're talking touring the world as a one woman force of nature with Sassy Black at Treefort Music Festival and then coming to a live taping in Porland, Oregon with Lucia Fasano to talk about taking risks, financing your art and why Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a badass. Produced by Jeni Wren Stottrup, recorded at Treefort Music Festival and Revolver Studios.
