Episode 240 highlights three things I’ve been re-thinking in my busy brain.

This Week: a podcast pairing!

Reflecting with @pianopantryamy is becoming a favorite December tradition 👯‍♀️

We’re sharing what’s NOT working this season today on Beyond Measure. Make sure you tune into the Piano Pantry Podcast tomorrow for a peek into what IS working!

I hope you’ll prepare your own list alongside us. This is an easy - yet meaningful - practice I engage in every quarter and I can’t recommend it highly enough!

Cheers to December, friends! 🥂

I do not take this audience for granted ♥️

I’ve been blessed by supportive communities my whole life… and those of you who have rallied around Beyond Measure these last 5+ years are no exception.

I never saw it coming, but I can’t imagine my world without you in it.

…regardless of where you are in the world, let’s celebrate Thanksgiving together. 🥂

Reflections for your week…

Today I’m sharing a peek into the beauty that was my inbox last week.

(Talk about a sentence I never imagined saying!)

So many of you shared heartfelt (and humorous) insights during Studio Teacher Thanksgiving, I couldn’t keep them to myself.

Check out episode 238: a blitz of Teacher Gratitude and Life Lessons Learned.

Cheers to the Grateful Life! 🥂

Oh, the irony…. 🫣

This episode was originally a Piano Teacher Confessions email… but I pulled it down minutes before it was scheduled to send because I didn’t think it was good enough…

…then I decided it would be better spoken, so I revised and revised and revised it into a podcast…

…and now I’m afraid you’re all going to think it’s dumb.

WHICH IS THE ROOT OF *ACTUAL* PERFECTIONISM.

Creating with the end goal of avoiding criticism is a fast-track to misery.

As artists and teachers, it’s oh-so-important we focus on the act of creating; not the feedback we *think* we will receive.

Today we’re unpacking perfectionism and its impacts on our Musician Selves AND our Teacher Selves.

Check it out, friends! 🥂

COMING NEXT WEEK! 👀 The 4️⃣th Annual Studio Teach

COMING NEXT WEEK! 👀

The 4️⃣th Annual Studio Teacher Thanksgiving is almost here!

No trite reminders here to deflect from the challenging aspects of our work…

…just REAL reflections on unique points of gratitude we all share as music teachers.

I hope you’ll join me! Comment THANKS and I’ll message you the link to sign up! 🍁 #beyondmeasurepodcast #studioteacherthanksgiving #pianoteacher #pianoteaching #iteachmusic #pianoteacherlife #musicteaching #pianoteachersofinstagram
