As hope appears on the horizon for a return to normalcy in a post-pandemic world, a serious question remains: Is 'going back to normal" a good thing?
Like the majority of professions, musicians and creatives like you experienced extreme hardships during the heart of the pandemic. However, we also learned major lessons, grew tremendously in our ability to pivot and reinvent ourselves, and even became possibly more marketable and savvy in our businesses.
With all of those positive effects, maybe you shouldn't simply go back to your pre-pandemic ways even when the world begins to function again.
In this Creative Checkup episode, host Allen C. Paul peels away the layers of the 'normal' lifestyle we used to live as creatives, and how the habits we developed in the heart of the shutdown should be applied in any environment or situation you may face in the future.
