How Do You Chase Music When You Have No Time?

In this episode of the Music Business Newsletter with Matthew Rix, I read an email from a mid-30s country singer who’s convinced he has the talent to become a star, if only he had the time.Between a full-time job, two kids, a wife who wants him present, friends who expect him around, and a borderline-serious pickleball habit, he feels like he’s drowning. And now, the pressure to post constantly on social media is exacerbating the issue.He’s not lazy. He’s not unmotivated. He’s just overwhelmed, frustrated, and feeling like real adult life is standing in the way of his dreams.In this episode, I break down:🔹 Why time is the biggest excuse artists use🔹 How to realistically pursue music with a full life🔹 What “getting serious” actually looks like🔹 How to balance passion with responsibility🔹 And whether it’s still possible to succeed in your 30sIf you’ve ever felt stretched thin or guilty for not posting enough, this episode will hit home.Do you have your own question about balancing music and life?
