Happy FEM Friday!

One of the most common things I hear from women in our community is this:

“I want to share my music, but I don’t feel ready to show up online and I don't know how to make a good first impression when I'm still figuring it out.”

Maybe you’re still finding your sound.

Maybe you’re coming back to music after years away.

Maybe your social profiles are… well, a little all over the place.

But here’s what I want you to know...

In this issue

🥽Look polished (even in the "messy middle")


🛠️Own The Stage Every Time You Perform


🎧The Tools To Get Playlisted & Booked As An Indie


📻Add These Songs To Your Playlist

You don’t need to have it all figured out to look like you belong here.

And you definitely don’t need to wait to look like the artist you already are.

The truth is, people will decide whether to pay attention to your music and your message within the first few seconds of landing on your profile.

And that's good news for you, because you don't have to have to have a perfectly-formed brand or tons of cred.

What you do need is clarity.

And that’s exactly what the 9-grid gives you.

This simple framework helps you create a first impression that feels intentional, grounded, and 100% you — even if you're still in the messy middle (your visitors don't have to know that:).

I want to help you make your Instagram speak for you, so you can stop second-guessing and start owning your space with confidence.

If your Instagram doesn’t reflect the artist you’re becoming, the 9-Grid Workshop is where we fix that.

It’s not about chasing trends or vanity metrics. It’s about showing up as yourself — clearly, confidently, and ready to be seen.

The 9-Grid Workshop was our most recent workshop inside the Female Musician Accelerator and because it was so popular, I decided to offer it as a stand-alone workshop for a limited time.

This workshop walks you through creating your 9 grid, step by step, specifically designed for purposed-driven female musicians like you.

And when you grab the workshop, you'll get special bonuses:

  • a complete set of plug-n-play 9-Grid Canva Templates so you can create a stunning 9 Grid in minutes (no design experience needed).
  • pre-written caption prompts for each of the 9 squares.

This special discount + bonuses is only available through Monday.

Always in your corner,
<3 Bree

ON THE PODCAST

On the podcast, I chat with Benji Stein, creator of Playlist Supply and Booking Agent IO, who talks about some of the music marketing tools indie artists can use to gain better listener exposure.

We dive into the process of playlist promotion, the right way to secure gigs, and why DIY strategies can put musicians in control of their careers.

Benji also shares how artists can connect with playlist curators, track playlist performances, and land bookings without relying on middlemen.

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN: FEM FRIDAY EDITION June 27, 2025 Happy FEM Friday! Have you ever had one of those weeks where you looked at your to-do list and just felt your shoulders slump before you even started? Where your passion projects kept getting pushed down the list because you were too busy doing everything else "needed" to keep your music career running"? I know that feeling far too well. I remember this one season where I was doing all the things. Booking gigs. Designing graphics. Managing...

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN WEEKLY NEWSLETTER June 25, 2025 Hey there, Profitable Musician! One of the biggest myths I see floating around the indie music world is this idea that you need a manager to be legit. Or that once you find the right manager, everything in your career will finally click. But here's the truth: having a manager too early can actually slow you down. And not being ready when the right one comes along? That’s a missed opportunity. In my recent podcast interview with Janice Shen...

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN: FEM FRIDAY EDITION June 20, 2025 Happy FEM Friday! Can we talk about something that doesn’t get nearly enough airtime? That creeping feeling that maybe you’re not cut out for this. That voice that whispers, “Who do you think you are?” when you go to post something about your music or share a new video. The pit in your stomach when you see someone else doing what you want to do, only better, faster, with shinier graphics and more followers. If any of that sounds familiar,...
