The Terror of Vulnerability

I'm starting to learn the terror of vulnerability, and it's really humbling. 

The past few days have shown me how challenging it is to show your original music to people, even good friends. 

You'll know from watching me on stage that when I'm singing other people's music, the fear just isn't there for me! 


But in performing my own music the stakes are SO much higher. As it is right now, I'll clam up midway through a song and never finish when I'm showing someone. It's really sad! 

Yes, being in the spotlight can be fun, but it's also totally terrifying. 

Time to let go of the fear and jump this big hurdle so my music can finally be heard.
