      @@EricFloberg this is the side of being an artist or creative that most people fail to talk about. The importance of actually having things bringing in income outside of your creative pursuits. These things also tend to be good investments from well paying projects or merch that gives longer term streams of income over the course of your career. Its really really important and your history as a teacher shines through in the content you produce! Thank you so much 🙏🏾
