Shreyas Iyer - the edge of curiosity and expanding boundaries

In this episode, Monica sits down with Shreyas Iyer, a tabla player originally from India, who performs, teaches and studies tabla in Phoenix, AZ.  Insightful and inspirational, they discuss how the process of learning new things never stops, how feedback and signs can help you know where you are supposed to go, trusting your gut as a musician, uncomfort vs discomfort, looking at boundaries and how to expand them, and living on the edge of curiosity. They talk about the meaning of brave, curious, and fears, how important it is to put positive things out into the world, and how failing helps us learn. Shreyas shares his willingness to grow and gives an honest reflection of his process and some of the lessons he learned while forging his unique path, including the lesson that music provides us the time and space to just be. _____________ To support our mission, please join our Patreon page - Patreon.com/BraveMusician. _____________ See the show notes at BraveMusician.com/podcast.
