Under The Radar: Secrets To Success For The Independent Musician

Author: Music Fit Collective

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.
