Coaching

Helping you thrive in an ever-changing world

We are living in a very different world today than we were a decade ago. The classical music industry has been totally transformed. It is now digital, entrepreneurial, and constantly changing. We have not been prepared for this world. Our training ignored key subjects, such as entrepreneurship, self-promotion and marketing, and we now have to cope with the extra demands of the digital world.

From talking and working with people all across the classical music industry, it’s clear that many are feeling lost in this new world. They’re unsure where to start with social media, feel overburdened with the extra workload, and are worried about how to navigate an industry that just keeps changing and getting harder.

I strongly believe that there is no “one-size-fits-all ” approach not helping musicians, arts administrators, and leaders navigate this world. Through coaching that can cover a range of topics including career progression and social media, we identify your strengths and passions to create an individual roadmap that is tailored to you. This approach is all about empowering you to create your own path to success.

Individual coaching is bespoke and available to musicians, creatives, arts administrators, and arts leaders at any stage of their journey.

  • As promoters are looking for artists with strong social media followings and the skills to create content to promote concerts, its more important than ever for agencies to help their artists in the digital world.

    I work collaboratively with both agents and artists to empower artists to manage their own social media in a way that works for them.
