Episode 139: Interview with Jen Oliverio

“Instead of playing that game of comparison, use that as an opportunity to be inspired rather than to be jealous of something you don’t necessarily have yet.” This episode, Karen is joined by Jen Oliverio, Oakland University Assistant Professor of Trumpet and Principal Cornetist of the Fountain City Brass Band. In this interview, you’ll hear about Jen’s journey to teaching higher education, moving, starting a family, and getting a new job during the pandemic, as well as the reality of being a musician mom and being married to someone who plays the same instrument. “You can always find something in your bad days. I try to, even on my worst playing days, find something beautiful in my music.” Listener Write in: https://www.musiciansguidepodcast.com/about Patreon- Come Hang out: https://patreon.com/user?u=66581011&utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=join_link The Musician's Guide to Social Media Courses: https://www.musiciansguidepodcast.com/courses Leave us a Review on Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-musicians-guide-to-being-healthy-wealthy-and-wise/id1440699268 Karen Cubides Agency: https://karencubidesagency.com Karen's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/karen.cubides/ Jen's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jenniferjames.co/
