Description

Welcome to the first episode of The Daily Vocalist for 2026.

In this episode, we’re having an honest conversation about the new year, goal-setting, and what it really takes to grow as a singer — without burning out or chasing trends that don’t align with who you are.

If you’re a vocalist who has struggled with consistency, motivation, comparison, or setting goals that actually last, this episode is for you.

We talk about why goals based on trends often fail, and why passion is the most sustainable fuel for growth. When singing is truly your passion, it keeps you showing up even on the days when motivation disappears. I share personal experiences from podcasting consistently, building a TikTok platform, and how passion pushed me through moments of doubt, fatigue, and low visibility.

This episode also explores:

• Why motivation is unreliable and how systems create real progress
• What consistency actually means (and why it doesn’t have to be every day)
• How learning a new skill like crocheting taught me powerful lessons about repetition, patience, and growth
• Why vocal growth is often slow, repetitive, and “boring” — and why that’s normal
• How comparison steals alignment and delays confidence
• Why your voice will evolve and why your goals must be flexible
• The role of discipline as self-respect, not punishment
• Why rest is a necessary part of vocal development
• How progress can be quiet, private, and still valid
• The importance of having one anchor goal to ground you throughout the year
• This episode is a reminder that real vocal growth doesn’t happen overnight. It happens through small, consistent actions ... one practice session, one exercise, one decision to show up again.
