Last Friday was my six year anniversary as a freelancer. When you’re out there running on faith, you tend to lean on a few things for support including family, trusted colleagues, and a cocktail (or two). For me, the roller coaster of doubt and victory is also pacified through music.
One recent morning I was working away and feeling stuck. I couldn’t even decide what I wanted to listen to so I just hit shuffle out of desperation. I found myself listening to a bunch of music that reminded me of how it felt starting out and I was reacquainted with a certain fire.
I offer you those same tracks that got me going six years ago, and still keep me going, in the hope that they somehow help you through the foggy moments too. Thank you to so many people for the last six years and for allowing me to keep working on this creative dream every day, late at night, and in the wee small hours of the morning.
