Blues rock artist, Julianne Q from Julianne Q and the Howl, is passionate about music and building her career in an authentic way that allows her to be true to herself. As a recent LA transplant from Chicago, Julianne has navigated the waters of building a new network, meeting people, and getting her music out in the LA scene.
Listen in as we chat extensively about entrepreneurship, taking care of yourself to avoid burnout, and most importantly, about being vulnerable and true to yourself to grow in your career.
I also chat briefly in the beginning of the episode about the resource list I’m putting together for musicians and other professionals looking for ways to stay busy and educated during the COVID-19 quarantines and lockdowns. These resources will be available at www.brokenglassmediallc.com/freebies and on the blog at www.brokenglassmediallc.com/thebrokenglassblog. Stay safe and healthy out there!

“No one is going to fight for you harder or better than yourself”
“You have to be able to protect yourself, and you can’t do that if you’re not aware”
“Know your worth and stick to it”
