Episode Description
In this episode of Intentional Musicianship, Jeff Price takes a thoughtful, personal look at school and graduate school as investments, not just financially, but in terms of time, opportunity, flexibility, and long-term life impact.
Rather than telling anyone what to do, this episode invites listeners to ask two essential questions before committing to another program:
Why am I doing this right now?
So what is this degree actually expected to return?
This episode is about thinking critically, investing wisely, and owning your decisions
