This week, I sat down with Jazz and Bossanova songstress, Gemma Sherry, whose world tour came to an abrupt halt due to COVID and she was faced with the decision to either sit back and wait for things to normalize - or shift her focus and take advantage of the situation.  She chose the latter.  In our conversation, Gemma and I discuss how many of the lessons she has learned on her journey from the Australian outback to New York City can be applied by podcasters who are on a similar path.  We dig into some mindset and marketing strategies that Gemma has found to be effective and discuss ways in which they can be applied to all areas of life, including podcast and business growth.  Some of these topics include:  Seeing opportunities where others see obstacles and become discouraged; Connecting with your audience and strengthening relationships by allowing your audience to see behind the curtains; The importance of establishing yourself as an expert in your field; How to set yourself apart from “entry-level” talent within your industry; The importance of learning from your competition and not allowing yourself to become blinded by envy; Why it is important to set goals and make their achievement non-negotiable; How creating urgency is critical to accomplishing goals and moving on to bigger and better things; The importance of personal development and finding community to build in accountability and support mechanisms - and help celebrate your wins; And plenty more!  ---- To connect with Gemma Sherry or buy any of her music, go to https://gemmasherry.bandcamp.com/ or visit her website at gemmasherry.com For more podcasting tips, to enter to win a free podcasting microphone and stand, or to just stay connected, follow Chad on Instagram at @leveluprecording Join me live every Wednesday (noon ET) in December to have your podcasting questions answered in real time - More information and the zoom link for these sessions can be found at @leveluprecording To check out the podcast services offered by Level Up Recording or to schedule a free brainstorming/consultation session, visit levelup-recording.com
