The Four Agreements & DJing

Don Miguel Ruiz's "The Four Agreements" offers timeless wisdom that can profoundly impact various professions, including the dynamic world of DJing. I rememebr when I first got the book and gave it to friends and, male & female, put it into practice. A friend's mother created posters for each agreement and put them up in the house, wishing she'd read them years ago. By integrating these agreements into their craft, DJs can enhance their artistry and...

The Secret to Life is Being Comfortable with the Unknown

Music production and DJing have a way of revealing life’s deeper truths. One of the biggest? The secret to life is being comfortable with the unknown. Whether it's stepping up to the decks without knowing exactly how a crowd will react, or sculpting a track from raw inspiration without a clear outcome in mind, the magic happens in uncertainty. Yet in business, we seek certainty. Investors want predictable returns. Labels want guaranteed hits. Promoters want...

Life Coaching Models & DJing

DJing is track selection, a lot of stuff in the middle and results in a performance. But that 'stuff in the middle' can cause a lot of head trash, espeically if you are not getting the connections you want in the industry. Rather than blame the industry it may be worth looking at your own thoughts and feelings. Its the only area you can have full control and work on daily. By working on both...

You Need Turbulence to Reach Higher Success

The truth is, it never gets easier—performance, that is. Even famous DJs and artists still get nervous before they perform, no matter how big their careers have become. The pre-show jitters are real, but so is the post-performance adrenaline rush. That moment when you realise your body has overcome the nerves and let you play—that's the magic. My coach uses a powerful metaphor: an airplane taking off. It cannot climb to higher altitudes without turbulence; it needs...
