Today on For Artists Figuring It Out, Tom’s diving into the sneaky mindset traps that stop independent artists from moving forward, even when they’re doing everything “right.”


If you’ve ever felt stuck in overthinking, perfectionism, or constantly comparing yourself to others in the industry… this one’s for you.


Here’s what we’re unpacking:

→ Why overthinking kills momentum

→ How perfectionism hides behind “high standards”

→ Why fear of failure makes you chase validation, not growth

→ The one mindset shift that changes everything


Whether you’re new to releasing music or years into your journey, this episode will help you get out of your own head and back to building something real.
