All of this resonates sooooo much. Your words cut into my heart today. I’ve been really trying to lean into removing the burden of a conventional idea of success, that being real and just making songs because they’re fun and nourishing and exciting to create even though 1/3 of the time I want to throw them into the fires of Mount Doom shows up. Thanks for reminding all of us creators that the 1/3 of the time it feels like the best feeling ever is worth it ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing all this. CHEERS to making art because it's fun and nourishing. Maybe you could write a song called Mount Doom? Wishing you so so much joy in that blissful 1/3 . . . and may it become even more than 1/3 ! Sending good wishes for inspiration. Xx
Thanks for this Greta ! I found out about you thanks to the interview you did with Flow State a few months ago. At the time, I was immersed in the creation of a conference partly about the burnout/depression I went through after trying very hard at trying to make a living as a disabled musician, composer & producer. Needless to say your story resonated with me & your words definitely inspired me pushing through writing the conference.
I don’t think I have found my new voice yet but my approach of music making & my intentions have changed (selfless, more honest with what I truly want, more spiritual maybe ?), and maybe it will lead to something outside of the music realm.
All this to say I think your book will speak to a lot of people & I can’t wait to read it !
Oh, I love this shift in creativity towards selflessness, more honesty, more spirituality, and towards expressing what you truly want.... This feels to exciting for you. Thank you for your kind words about the book and I can't wait for you to read it. Sending much love and good wishes for inspiration.
Thanks Greta for the thoughts. I'm a big fan, not only of your musical journey, but of your honesty about your struggles and how you have overcome adversity. Can't wait to receive my copy of your latest and greatest offering. Much love.
Can't wait! 😊❤️ These are wonderful tips. #5 is the most difficult for me, as both a parent and someone who has like a gazillion mental health appointments these days 😵💫
oh gosh, totally get that!!! a child and your own mental health are certainly two areas worthy of lots of your energy ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ so good to hear from you, Addie - thanks for chiming in ! xx
Brilliant. I'll pin some of these where I can see them. Thank you, Greta. Can't wait for your book to arrive. I ordered four copies to give to friends.
