Self Management and Mindset for Musicians - by Mike del Ferro
40: Important Update: The Future of this Podcast & Name Change.
Hi Everybody, Mike del Ferro here.
First off, I want to say that the success of Self Management for Musicians has been incredible, and I deeply appreciate every one of you who listens and shares the show.
However, I have faced a challenge recently: I cannot be as productive as I want to be due to my heavy international touring schedule all year round. I want to keep providing the information you appreciate, but the editing time has become a bottleneck.
Here is how I am solving this:
- Introducing AI Narration: I have been experimenting with AI-generated voices, and I am very impressed with the quality. Moving forward, I will be utilizing this technology for narration. This is a massive time-saver regarding editing and will allow me to return to a consistent schedule.
- New Schedule: Thanks to this workflow change, I will be back to producing and releasing new episodes every 2 weeks.
- New Name & Focus: I have decided to dedicate more episodes to the mental aspect of our industry. To reflect this, I am officially changing the name of the podcast to "Self Management and Mindset for Musicians".
I love sharing my experiences with you, and these changes ensure I can keep doing that consistently, no matter where I am in the world.
Let me know what you think of these developments, and please keep sharing this podcast with your colleagues.
