170 - Creating Brilliance from Bias

😳 Do you feel like your career in music is affected by the biases of others?

🎙 If this resonates with you then check out my podcast episode A Drummer's Guide To… Creating Brilliance from Bias

✏️ Thank you to this anonymous person who reached out via my ‘suggestion box’ (check out my highlights if you want to add your own).

❓ They shared that they have been struggling as an ‘international non-white female drummer’ in what they see as a ‘boys club’ and although they work to the highest professional standard, they feel they’re often put on gigs as part of a ‘box-ticking’ exercise.

😥 This is a rough headspace to be in and experience to have, and I talk on my own experience, thoughts and feelings around this, along with how I choose to see things to regain a bit of autonomy and empowerment in this situation.

🧐 This subject was a hard and complicated one to tackle, and if it’s something you’d be interested in hearing, then check out my podcast episode A Drummer's Guide To… Creating Brilliance from Bias

🎧 …and if you’d like to lift the curtain further on all the other things it takes to be a professional musician, aside from playing your instrument, then look for A Drummer's Guide To... on all good podcasting platforms and youtube
