Getting my head together…. —Okay, so we’re back from Toronto and, yes! I am AMBITIOUS about ALL the things that I’d like to accomplish today. 😬🤷🏽‍♀️ AND that INCLUDES quite a lot…. 3 Summer Music Promo Tips: https://bit.ly/232summerpromoblog What time is it? ⏰ — Okay, so we’re 2 weeks out from starting my summer vacation, good-fashioned, but I have some VERY definite goals. 📝 —YES! I DID wine and dine freely on this Toronto trip, but I am FINALLY ready to embrace NEW goal

Revved up…. — Yes! I can feel how much BETTER I have gotten over the years! I feel like I manage the workflow AT WORK and AT HOME in such a better way! Not only do I NOT freak out—EVEN when I am tempted to! 😳—but I just take a deep breath, resolve to return to my list of priorities, choose the first one, two, or three, set my timer, and get to work toward it. Almost as SOON as I begin, I get engrossed in the activity and IMMEDIATELY calm the fuck down! 🧘🏾‍♂️ What’s more is

It’s “fix fuck-ups day”?! —I don’t know why, but this seems to be “fix fuck ups” day. 😳🤷🏽‍♀️🙌🏾 It’s okay; I have ALREADY fixed one. —I had the wrong link in this weekend’s song that was posted, but I fixed it. And I will spare you the song a dance about all the specifics…. Gab & Jam 222.

I, literally, don’t have ANYTHING to fucking complain about this month….🤷🏽‍♀️ —Oh, except that the South By Southwest trip nearly snuck up upon before I had booked the airfare. 😬🙄 —I am going to chalk that up to the disappointment we felt two years ago….. When we were getting ready to pack for the trip and two weeks before, the entire world shut down for a pandemic that was supposed to last 3 weeks.

Rough Start — It’s amazing that yesterday turned out so well, because, as you know, it started out very poorly, attitude-wise for me. My stomach was in knots, I didn’t feel like I was accomplishing much, and doubted my abilities to be able to leverage the time the way I had originally envisioned it. But I kept GOING. Despite everything. And that’s all I COULD do to keep from just breaking down and throwing up my hands. I just kept saying to myself that, even if I WASN'T able

Early along in this frustrating journey…. — Okay, so I was at the point in this process where I WASN'T going to accept “No” for an answer from a device that is SUPPOSED to serve ME! I decided that I could get what I wanted out of this printer! —And SOONER than later! —So, I fucking saved the documents as PDFs onto a fucking jump drive and inserted that motherfucker DIRECTLY into the printer! 💥🤷🏽‍♀️ It HAD to be done! 🙌🏾 Join the Street Team! https://bit.ly/BPJstreetteam

THIS is the journey... Sometimes it’s hard to reconcile all these different parts of this path that we’re on. And we’ve gotten into a habit of CONSTANTLY hustling, but, TRULY, keeping up THIS particular pace is not our goal. Our goal is to start a fire that will be self-sustaining; it’s just that we’ve got to throw EVERYTHING at it to give a great start. So, hopefully, this artist mentoring program process is what will throw the right kind of gasoline onto the music portion o

—Yep, we're READY to rock! 🤘🏽 Following a roadmap —I feel like, even though I have a shit ton of work to do at the dayjob, I am ready for that too! 💥 I have all the rough plans typed out, so that I WON'T get lost in the shuffle of things. I am going to be shifting back and forth between many IMPORTANT priorities now, so I need to CONSTANTLY have that roadmap to keep me focused. With this, I don’t get as overwhelmed as I tend to get WITHOUT it, because I KNOW that there are
