1.Stop downplaying the skills you have learned through the arts. Meaning if you’re an artist who is looking to pivot or have a parallel career in something artistic or not, stand on the skills you’ve learned as an artist. Don’t negate them!
2. Money is a neutral tool, we are the ones who ascribe an emotion to it and for a lot of artists that emotion is fear, but we can choose to ascribe another emotion to it or no emotion at all.
3. Give yourself permission. Permission to take chances, permission to be good with money, permission to build the life you want as an artist.
These are my key take aways from my conversation with Singer, Financial Educator & Advisor Tiffany Soricelli.
