Welcome to How to Practice Happier, a podcast to help you think differently about practice and your artistic process: because practice isn’t about making music, it’s about YOU making music. The context of your life and your thoughts and experiences matters, and when we go on stage we bring all of that along with us.  In this week's episode, I'm talking about how the bad things we believe about ourselves might be keeping this industry from making the changes we desperately need. As musicians we have to challenge these norms, support victims of abuse, and demand better from institutions.
