Crushing Classical

Crushing Classical is a series of interviews with classical musicians who are forging unique paths with their talent, creating their own artistic fulfillment and financial comfort, and finding ways to thrive. I celebrate these brave people who are taking routes outside of traditional orchestral or academic employment! As always, I invite you to listen for your own sparks and breadcrumbs, and use these interviews to find the possibilities that exist in your own life.

The Happiest Musician: Creating A Career You Love With All The Things You Love Doing

Jun 9, 2017

On this episode I had Allan Santos, a bass player who I was introduced to through our mutual friend and fellow podcaster Jason Heath (who we talk about on the episode- see link to the post we talked about below) and when I heard about his interesting career evolution, I had to have him on the show… Allan is a bass player who went into teaching yoga and afterwards became a life coach. He tells the story about how a big change in his personal life was the tipping point for him to start exploring other options in his career. Often times that’s how it happens, and Allan shares his whole story. After yoga he went into life coaching, and we talked all about what that was like to change gears in his career and all that goes into starting a new business. We dove into finding meaning in your life as a musician, as well as commonly held beliefs about money by musicians and artists and how it affects your life--- and how your comfort zone can actually be not such a great place to hang out in for too long… and a lot more! Stay tuned.
