PROFITABLE MUSICIAN WEEKLY NEWSLETTER May 6, 2026 Hey there, Profitable Musician! Have you ever had someone respond beautifully to your music in the moment? Maybe they came up to you after a show and told you one of your songs made them cry or gushed, āI love what you do,ā while at your merch table. Maybe they commented on a video or followed you online.

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN: FEM FRIDAY EDITION May 1, 2026 Happy FEM Music Friday! This week I turned 54. And Iāve noticed something about birthdays at this age and stage. They donāt just feel like a celebration. They feel like a mirror. You start seeing patterns more clearly. The choices you made. The roles you stepped into. The things you put on hold. For a lot of us, music was one of those things. ...because something else needed you first. You said "yes" to the job that paid the bills. You...

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN: FEM FRIDAY EDITION April 24, 2026 Happy FEM Music Friday! I was standing in my kitchen, blender struggling cause I ALWAYS over fill it, making the same thing Iāve made almost every week for the past year. Queso dip. Not the fancy kind. The healthy kind that still somehow feels indulgent. Just cottage cheese, shredded sharp cheddar, and sriracha. Blend it up. Done. Iāve made it so many times I donāt even measure anymore. I just know what it needs. And as I was scooping it...

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN WEEKLY NEWSLETTER April 22, 2026 Hey there, Profitable Musician! I usually write this newsletter on Wednesdays, but I didnāt want you to miss this because the Unstoppable Singer Summit starts today. And thereās something about it that I think a lot of singers overlook. We all get pulled toward the exciting stuff. More fans. More income. More visibility. Thatās the part everyone talks about. Thatās the part that feels fun to imagine. But, thatās not the part that actually...

PROFITABLE MUSICIAN: FEM FRIDAY EDITION April 17, 2026 Happy FEM Music Friday! I was sitting at a round table with a paper plate of that soupy hash brown casserole they always served. You know the kind. It doesnāt look like something you should trustā¦ but somehow itās the best thing on the table. I only came once a month, and even that felt like a luxury back then. It was a mom's group called Mothers of Preschoolers. I went for the childcare, honestly. Ninety minutes where someone else...
