Your music isn't just a series of sessions that lead to loops, half-finished tracks, or a folder of finished pieces…


It's a reflection of your path, your growth, and your identity as an artist.

In this episode, we explore how every session you sit down to write is shaping the story of your life.

Whether it's a win, a struggle, or a breakthrough—it all counts. 

And it all adds up.

If you've been struggling to finish tracks or improve your level, doubting your ability, or even feeling unsure whether the effort, frustration, and overwhelm are really worth it… then this episode is for you.

We unpack:

✅ Why every finished track is a sentence in the book of your life
✅ Why creative struggle is not a bug, it's a feature of the journey
✅ How to spot when your actions are pulling you away from your mountain
✅ Why genre-hopping and sample hoarding are silent forms of sabotage
✅ How to stay focused by tracking your progress like an unfolding story
✅ Why finishing music is an act of courage—and of becoming

We can look at creativity as a grind… or as a deeply meaningful adventure.

If you like the sound of the latter then check out this podcast now.
