my busiest week… why nothing fell apart 🤯


PROFITABLE MUSICIAN:

FEM FRIDAY EDITION

April 10, 2026

Happy FEM Music Friday!

I want to tell you how last week, my busiest week of the entire year, actually went for me.

It was Holy Week. And as a worship Director at a Lutheran Church, it's a lot!

I had 7 services to prepare for.
17 congregational songs.
5 choral pieces I was leading.
2 solos.

And I’m still doing bookkeeping for the church… and running this business.

So going into the week, I had that thought of:

“Okay… something important in my business is gonna have to get shelved this week, and many things will surely fall through the cracks.”

Because that’s what used to happen.

When music ramped up, everything else got put on the back burner. Emails, content, all of it.

But this time it didn’t...

In this issue

🥽My busiest week of 2026...why nothing fell apart


🛠️There Was The Girl Boss Era, Now There's This!


📻Add These Songs To Your Playlist

I still sent my newsletters.
I wrote sales emails.
I posted.
I recorded 3 podcast episodes.

I even got ahead for the next week so I could clear some recovery time (after 3 Easter services and a big birthday dinner for my daughter on Sunday, I knew I'd need it).

And I wasn’t stressed getting it all done either.

The biggest reason - because I wasn’t starting from scratch.

I sat down, opened up my AI workflow, and just started working through it.

I wasn’t staring at a blank screen trying to come up with something from nothing.

And another big perk, especially when you're short on time and energy...

I didn’t have to filter myself like I would working back-and-forth with a VA.

There’s no worrying about hurting anyone’s feelings. No playing politics.

I can literally say,
“no, that sucks! I would never say that and it sounded super off-brand. Try again.”

Or

“I think this is utter crap. You sound like AI slop and totally generic. Here are the words I'd actually use.”

And it just adjusts. No friction. No holding a grudge.

Which means I get to my actual voice faster and my content creation is streamlined.

So instead of dragging content out across the whole week…

I got it done in a focused block, shut down my computer and went back to practicing the pile of music I needed to perfect.

Actually present for what I was preparing instead of feeling guilty for dropping the ball on other things.

It’s not only about doing more, although it does make that possible.

It’s about not wasting energy on the hardest part… which is starting every time from zero.

Because I have a consistent workflow built out that I can go back to over and over. That’s what I want to help you build during Get It Done Week: AI Content Workflow Edition.

A simple system you can sit down with, run through, and be done. And still sound like you.

In fact, I think it's helped me sound even MORE like me (I didn't think that was possible but it's unlocked a freedom of expression I just didn't have before.)

If that would make your life easier right now (and I can tell you from experience that it definitely will), you can join us here:

→ [Get It Done Week: AI Content Workflow Edition April 13-17 – just $49]

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN WEEKLY NEWSLETTER April 8, 2026 Hey there, Profitable Musician! I want to say something out loud, because I know this has been sitting in the background for a lot of you. AI is not replacing real music. It can’t. It doesn’t have a life.It hasn’t lived through anything.It doesn’t know what it’s like to lose someone, start over, fall apart, rebuild, learn a lesson that only boots-on-the-ground can teach.

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN WEEKLY NEWSLETTER April 1, 2026 Hey there, Profitable Musician! Q2 is here! It may be April Fools Day, but I'm dead serious when I talk about this dangerous trap I see musicians like you fall into again and again. It's the thing standing between you and real progress this quarter, and it probably isn't what you think it is. It's not a lack of talent. It's not a lack of ideas. If anything, you have too many of those. Here's what I see constantly with artists: you've got...
