Music Mentor and Career Coach

The Mission

The Music Life mentor is a place for dreamers to find direction, support, overcome challenges, build confidence & trust in their abilities while developing professionally on their own terms. In addition we help in looking at patterns that sabotage progress and hit the reset button on your mindset and approach in order to create a sustainable fuel for your dreams and goals.  Our programs are primarily for musicians, vocalists, producers, DJs, songwriters, music artists, however the principles of mentoring/coaching used in our programs open up the possibility to coach anyone that desires to make changes in their life/career.

The world needs music more than ever but it also needs music creators that are ready to express who they truly are.

So with this in mind how does The Music Life Mentor fit into your creative career?

As it turns out, being a creative person is just the start to having a working music career. Unfortunately for many people the professional world they are keen to be a part of does not encourage individuality, originality, or artistry.

This presents difficult choices for those that want to embark on music careers, to mold themselves to the standard of wherever their entry point in this music construct is, dilute some type of their vision and or in a worst case scenario, give up on their dreams!

The music life mentor offers an alternate choice that gives you the techniques and skill set to create your own path, and your own version of success!

Mentoring and coaching techniques help dissolve programming that there is a standard pathway that all artists must follow in order to achieve success. In place we actively provide tools to cut out the noise and carve out a career path based on the personal values of the individual thereby a more richer sustainable healthy process to achieve your professional goals. We believe with this approach, the artist builds conviction that leads to their best artistic self.

My Story

Embarking on a journey of over 25 years, I forged a path that defied convention, crafting a career as a DJ, music artist, producer, buyer, and label owner.

The road was far from smooth, but I persisted, carving out my space, and earning the respect I worked for. As a woman of color, asserting my presence in an industry that often needed its boundaries expanded taught me that if you have a dream, a vision and a plan, anything is possible!

The lessons I learnt along the way of nurturing relationships, determination and persistence served me well for most of my career until I hit a wall halfway through my career. Not just one wall but several, from “well meaning” music peers, music distributors, press you name it. I was tired, jaded and spent more time threatening to quit the thing than actually being creative. BUT..I just could not bring myself to give up something that was so much a part of me and my dream.

So…at a crossroads I turned inwards and removed from myself from the path the world told me was the surefire way to achieve career success and instead leaned into charting my own course because I finally believed in my own uniqueness!

A philosophical breakthrough emerged.

The ideas I was subscribing to did not align with me or my vision of why i wanted to make music in the first place. My vision is create/offer a transformative experience for my audience thereby contributing something meaningful.

Fast forward to 8 years ago, I unofficially started to mentor other musicians, I saw suffering, lost, unmotivated, exhausted from jumping through hoops trying to meet some standard that they had no idea if it would even serve their dreams.

From the ashes of my lowest emotional points, I used my personal experiences, self awareness through life coaching and understanding of positive mindset techniques to start to bring my ideas to life. I have been fortunate in the last couple of years to teach formally at Catalyst Creative Arts in Berlin and designed workshops for festivals and collectives.

This is personal for me, I want artists to carve out their own path to success and I believe The Music Life Mentor can provide the keys to unlocking that level of personal and artistic achievement you crave.
