It’s about the people!

Posted by Shoshana 
· Wednesday, May 25th, 2022 

The world is pretty crazy right now. It’s one of the reasons I have not written a post in a long while.

Simply, I feel it is because we have our priorities all mixed up. It’s not about the money. It’s not about the power. It should be about the people. Until we learn to take care of each other, we will constantly be in this push and pull battle for survival.

This scenario rings true in the arts. I have seen it first hand where money and power have created the faux world of dog eat dog in the arts. It’s all a façade. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Everyone can create and get taken care of if we make it all about the people instead.

“I booked a series of phone sessions with Shoshana because I think in order for record companies and booking agents to take us seriously we need to have a certain number of fans that we have a great relationship with who consistently come to our shows. Shoshana helped me to channel certain hazy focuses I had into more solid avenues. I also learned more about my goal, what we really want to do with our music, and how we want to affect people. We are now building a relationship by finding out what people like and want so we can see through their eyes. Shoshana’s sessions were fantastic- she followed up and she even helped promote!” —Chantelle Tibbs
