Have you ever considered the profound impact that creativity has on our well-being?
Jason Pickard joins me on the show today sharing his insights on how the highs and lows of a musician's life can take a toll on mental and financial health. We delve into the strategies that help strike a harmonious balance between the chaos of an artist's schedule and the pursuit of well-being, discussing the true wealth found not only in financial success but also in nurturing relationships and savouring life's simple joys.

Some highlights from today are...

Creativity and its essence as more than just an artistic endeavour—it's a way of solving problems uniquely and in harmony with the world.
The relationship between the electrifying energy of drumming to the cutthroat world of Wall Street, and Jason's evolution into a life coach and creator of the Abundance Archetype.
The prevalence of imposter syndrome and the crucial role of authenticity in making us indispensable in our respective fields.

We talked about ice cream cones, and how to embrace the "Infinite Game Of Life" which sparked the Abundance Achetype's theme song "Dominoes". Jason even pulls out a 432hz wood flute and bangs out a flute jam with me on the spot!

This dude's a legend. I'm stoked for you to hear this one, folks.

Under The Radar: Secrets To Success For The Independent Musician

In a recent study, 73% of independent musicians reported having experienced mental health issues.

Traditionally, the Rockstar Lifestyle was all about sex, drugs and rock n' roll, right? Well, with that kind of lifestyle comes a lack of energy, focus, motivation and drive. Injuries occur, we become addicted to substances, experience anxiety, and depression and as a result, our relationships suffer and we end up resenting the thing we were born to do: make music.

Sound familiar?

Your poor lifestyle choices are killing you, literally and you're the only one stopping you from achieving your dream of being a successful musician. Time for a change, wouldn't you say? Learn from industry pros and musicians just like you how to make better business decisions, eat clean, move intentionally, and develop a performance mindset so you start to see success both on and off the stage.

This is the Musician Wellness information station and the only podcast on the planet creating Rockstars, one musician at a time. Our goal is to uncover the best-kept secrets of success and make them accessible to you, the independent musician.
