Description

Being a pioneer, doing things differently and breaking the mould of what is expected of you can be linked with both success AND big feelings of worry around failure.

In this episode, I talk to pop princess and coach Harriet Starling, better known as Starling, about how how we can follow our purpose in a sustainable way without the burnout. We talked about how receiving criticism meant she has ‘made it’ - and feeling worthy even when the music industry fed her messages around not being enough.

In this episode, you’ll also hear Starling’s amazing song Every Single Time performed, and understand why it is a mantra for enoughness.

We cover:

• Play is doing something without a desired outcome
• Inspiration to create
• True inspiration is to do things differently
• Passion and multi-hyphenated
• You can’t be two things in a world that wants you
• Owning it, all of you
• Feel liberated to break rules and moulds
• Stage fright and learning to sing
• Change the paradigm
• The power of delegation
• Follow your passion sustainably
• Where focus goes, energy flows
• Receiving criticism means you’ve ‘made it’
• The patriarchal pressure of body image and ageism in music
