Pursuing a career in the arts or music is a journey filled with passion, creativity, and, often, immense challenges. It can feel like you're constantly pushing against a wall, struggling to be seen, heard, or valued in a crowded industry. The road to success is rarely a straight path—rejections, self-doubt, and setbacks can make even the most talented artists question whether to keep going. This happened to my friend Lonnie Park, now a Multi-Grammy® award winner. By leaning in to insurmountable challenges rather than retreating from them after being catapulted over the top of a quad vehicle, he took a huge step to mentally break through those setbacks. In this episode, we'll explore how embracing obstacles, staying adaptable, and refining your craft with strategic goals and relationships can transform hopelessness into potential success.

Gliders Over Hollywood tells the exhilarating true story of a blue-collar kid nicknamed ‘Rap' who grew up in thrall to rock'n'roll, then found himself right in the middle of many of his heroes' lives as he became the most renowned rock promotion man in the USA. Paul Rappaport enjoyed a storied thirty-three-year career at Columbia Records, where he was instrumental in the careers of everyone from Bob Dylan to Bruce Springsteen, Pink Floyd to The Rolling Stones, Elvis Costello to Billy Joel, Judas Priest to Alice In Chains, and many, many more. The music business from the late 60s through the 90s was an exciting time that mirrored the music and the musicians making it.

Eccentric characters were everywhere, and often the managers, promoters, disc jockeys, and record company staff were just as big a show as the performers themselves. ‘I wrote this book to capture the magical times,' says Paul, ‘so that people wouldn't forget but also to show the many behind-the-scenes folks whose lives were so colorful they brought a warmth and laughter to the world. If you want to know what it felt like to be there, to experience the whole scene first hand, to get the inside track on how it really all went down, these stories are for you. I welcome you to follow me down the rabbit hole to a magical place that will bring you laughter and reveal the inner workings of the music biz that you may have often wondered about.'

Flute 360 | Episode 321: “Knowing Your Genius – Discovering Your Unique Creative Path, Part 3” Embrace your unique gifts, uncover your God-given talents, and find your place in the flute community. In this episode, Heidi guides you through the concept of “chiseling away” fear and doubt—like Michelangelo sculpting David—to reveal your authentic, creative core. Learn how to map out your zone of genius through four key circles (skills, passion, market needs, and compensation) and lean on faith when stepping into unexplored territory. Main Points: Identity & Purpose You're more than just a job title. Embracing the fullness of who you are can spark fresh avenues for artistic and personal growth. Michelangelo's David Analogy Just as excess marble was chipped away to reveal a masterpiece, shedding limiting beliefs can uncover your true potential. Four Circles to Your Zone of Genius Answer what you're good at, what you love, what the market needs, and how you can get paid for it—then act where these circles overlap. Leaning on Faith Trusting God's guidance (Proverbs 3:5–6) provides the courage to move beyond traditional molds and forge a path that resonates with who you truly are, and who God called you to be. Coaching Package: Feeling called to step into your own genius? Heidi's April coaching package (4 calls for $597) is designed to help you carve your unique path. Purchase before April 30 to secure the special rate, and schedule your sessions in May, June, or beyond—no rush on using all calls within April. Here's what Carole had to say: “Heidi is an incredible listener and challenged me to consider my career advancement goals in new ways. She was able to relate to my experiences and reframe my career advancement struggles as an opportunity to build something new, giving me the courage I needed to take the leap and launch my own business.” Ready to grow in your zone of genius? Reserve your spot here! Engaging Questions: What layers of expectation or fear might you need to chisel away to reveal your true creative self? Are you clear on your unique blend of skills, interests, and market needs—and if not, what's your first step to clarify it? How can faith play a bigger role in guiding your creative pursuits?
