Episode notes

What does it actually take to build a life around music?

In the first episode of the Living a Creative Life series, I sit down with my dear friend Wessa, a singer, songwriter, composer, arranger and film scoring graduate, to talk about what it really means to pursue an unconventional creative career.

From being homeschooled to devote more time to music, studying at conservatoires in London and Australia, writing for a 30-piece orchestra, overcoming creative blocks, and navigating the uncertainty of a creative profession, this conversation is an honest look at the discipline, vulnerability and joy behind a life in music.

Whether you're an artist, a creative professional, or someone wondering if it's too late to pursue the thing you love, this episode is for you.
