So for the last three months, I’ve been candidating for a position as Worship Director, at a church about an hour and a half from us. This past Sunday after a long interview with the leadership board, I was offered the position and I took it! So know I’m getting to know everyone that’s been involved in worship in the past, and I have to put together a schedule, and prepare at least a month worth of services for June. Plus I have a team almost ready to go for an event on June 6 called Jesus in the Park, in the general vicinity of the church where I was hired. And so far I’ve also got a July 4th I need to prepare for (secular/ private party). Normally I have more summer gigs set up by now, but this new church gig is going to take a lot of my time and energy moving forward. I’m still here, I’ve been praying about what to do with this group, and I really want to focus on it and grow it, I’m just so very busy now, with at least four part time jobs now… it’s kind of crazy, one of them being my guitar teaching/ coaching business. This church gig is gonna be part time for now, until the dust settles and we get better established. Currently the church gig, Sundays alone is about 8-10 hours with travel and my family with me, just on that day alone. Plus now, we’re most likely going to sell our house and move closer to the church. Which at this point, is going to take up our whole summer just to figure that out. So with that being said, I still have a lot to do here, but because I have so much on my plate, it’s gonna be minimal for awhile until I can figure all this out. I have been working behind the scenes to get what I do with my current private students/ clients codified in a way that I can package it here and for other places where I congregate with my “tribe.” I have so many content ideas and other things I wanted to launch but now this is taking a lot of what I have left, which frankly at the moment isn’t much… My question for you is, is it worth it to keep this group going. My heart is still in it, and I don’t want to let it go, but I’m praying about I need to focus on moving forward…

Real talk — life has been pulling me in a lot of directions lately, and I haven't been showing up here the way I want to... But you know what I've been thinking about? You. Because I know how easy it is to let the guitar sit in the corner when life gets loud. I've been there. We've ALL been there. So here's your Motivation Monday nudge: You don't need a perfect hour. You don't need to have it all figured out. You just need 10 minutes today — pick up the guitar, play something you love, and remind yourself why you started. That's it. 10 minutes. Your guitar hero isn't built in one epic session — he's built in the small moments nobody sees, when you show up anyway even when life is busy and loud and pulling you in every direction... So tell me — are you picking it up today? Drop a 🎸 in the comments if you're committing to your 10 minutes. Let's hold each other accountable! 💪 More to come!

A while back I put together a guide called the F Chord Manifesto after watching the same pattern over and over — players who had been working on guitar for months, sometimes years, who still couldn't get barre chords to sound clean and consistent. Not because they weren't practicing. Because nobody had ever shown them the right framework for approaching it. The guide helped a lot of people. But I've been realizing lately that a PDF only goes so far — what most people actually need is to see it, hear it, and apply it with someone walking alongside them. So I'm found a free teaching video that released two years ago this week that goes deeper than the guide — the core breakthrough that makes barre chords finally click. If that's where you're stuck, comment below or DM me. I'll make sure you're the first to see it when it's updated!

I hope it’s the best weekend ever!! @Wendy Wiseman
