Doing all the things as “just Olivia” will probably help in the long run with “musical Olivia.” Not that everything has to be in service of everything else, but being fulfilled in the normal everyday is probably a good thing! LOVE this journey you’re on.
That's so awesome that you were on the radio! And also, while I'm not a musician, I do feel you on keeping parts of yourself separated from each other💞Rather than 'musician Kimber' I have 'School Kimber' and 'Just Kimber'. Over the past 5 years, School Kimber has taken over, while Just Kimber has been wondering when we're going to take our own little vacation away from everyone. I can't go to the fjords or Europe again at the moment, but perhaps somewhere close by where I live. You'll get that Norway trip eventually-I'll send that energy your way😉
That bit about assigning self-worth beyond the musician and the performing I guess is a parallel to how people assign self-worth to their jobs.. no? But it's an interesting bit nonetheless!
I guess the best bit about my week so far that it's been too quiet at work, and that's good... but also worrying? (I go back to the value of self being tied to 'material production').. Capitalism got us caught into "production as self of worth" spiral...

Thanks Seth. I think so too, it's hard to remember that our output is based on input. can't fill up from an empty vessel!

thanks Kimber! hoping both our 'just' selves get a break soon!
Doing the radio show is so cool!! I hope you go somewhere fun as “Just Olivia” too
thank you Staci! the radio was really cool. i am gonna make an effort to honour my 'just Olivia' and make some nice plans for her :)
So is it safe to say that you'll still be... pining for the fjords?
Also, as a radio geek, I completely understand the satisfaction of finishing your song before the clock hits the top of the hour, haha.
i almost included that joke haha!
