What if you aren’t supposed to know what you're supposed to do next in your career until your path shows it to you!? I’m Chris Webb, joined by my co-host and the guy who I never know what he’ll say next, Dave Tamkin.
Today we are joined by the kind, dedicated and driving creative that is Stolie, also known to youngin’s as Super Stolie. We discuss everything from how to make useful merch to how to know when to lean into opportunities that arise.
Quote:So much of my music career has been influenced by just what life has happened along the way - Stolie
Just last summer, Governor John Hickenlooper accumulated local musicians, community leaders and financial backers to give life to his music initiative, in the form of Take Note Colorado. The aim of the initiative is to make music education and musical instruments more accessible to K-12 schools in the state. Back in May, the 1st Bank Center hosted Take Note the Concert, a fundraiser for Take Note Colorado. The star-studded evening included performances from an entirely local lineup — Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, Isaac Slade of The Fray, Todd Park Mohr of Big Head Todd and the Monsters, Bill Nershi of the String Cheese Incident, Tracksuit Wedding and comedian Josh Blue. https://takenotecolorado.org

Action:
- Take 5 minutes to ask yourself this question. What has happened recently that is a new opportunity that you feel reluctant or nervous to take? Consider why it makes you feel the way it does and identify if the reason is because you're scared. It might very well be the exact thing you need to say YES to inorder to open that next door.
