#MondayMotivation Just noticed I surpassed 250K streams on Spotify. ππ½ Been self reflecting a lot since my 37th birthday that this has been the most challenging yet exciting year of my life. Made many sacrifices this year to keep moving fotward with my dreams of becoming a full time musician. Had to make some very difficult life altering decisions but think it's worth it. Perhaps last month was the biggest change this year but August IS the month of Astaroth (as per demonology) so figured hey why not take a leap of faith. When you give up or lose things in life, you make room for new things to come into your life. So I did just that this year. Despite the loses, the beautiful new experiences I got to have and am making space for further opportunities are every bit worth it. So I will share my August accomplishments with y'all. Maybe it'll help motivate you in your tough days. πΏ I won the fan voted opening slot to open for @thisisaestheticperfection πΏ Finished writing a crazy new song with @brianspencer302 with an awesome feature from @sinizter_ πΏ Shot a performance video for a duet cover I am releasing soon with @codyjohnstoneofficial and @theinfernodoll πΏ Shot a music video with @senpaimediacanada for my next song that'll drop at the end of September πΏ Recorded harsh vocal guide video lessons for my students @bellamagicspells and @melodic_lex (DM if you need a lesson) πΏ Wrote vocals and lyrics for 2 new commissioned vocal features for @swipe_right_ca and @j9grooves (DM if you want a feature or want to collab) πΏ Wrote and reviewed the new @amonamarth album for @bangerfilms πΏ Perhaps the most life changing experience, I got to take the first real vacation of my life and go visit UK. So never give up on your dreams. Give up on everything else if you have to, but never give up on yourself spawns. Let's have an amazing September shall we!? *ps I am feeding swans & ducks berries* https://www.instagram.com/p/CibX6oIp7A9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
