The Good, The Bad, and the Slightly Ranty…

Ever wondered what it’s really like being a professional cellist? Like, behind the glam wedding venues and the serene classical vibes? In this episode, I spill the honest truth – yes, including the weird jokes, the painful thumb positions, and the brutal nail sacrifices (RIP to long, pretty nails 💅🏾😩).

I’m chatting from my sunny patio doors (finally spring?! 🙏🏾☀️) and diving deep into the things I seriously wish someone had told me before I picked up this magnificent beast of an instrument. Expect laughs, a little rage, some very relatable chaos, and a lot of “wait, people actually say that to you?!” energy.

Whether you’re a fellow muso or just nosey about the cello life, this one’s for you. Come hang out with me. It’s a ride. 🎢✨
