The Personal Development Membership & Empowering Community For Professional Music Creatives
Unlock New Levels Of Creativity, Confidence & Consistency, To Thrive In A Demanding Industry
We can all agree that creating music is literally the best thing...
...and whilst it's never been easier to create music and get it out into the world - it's never been harder to navigate and handle being a music creative as a human being.
Whether you have a team or you're independent ...there's a lot of "inner stuff" to deal with
Perfectionism
Spending endless hours tweaking a song, to finally release it but still not being happy
Comparisonitis
The "why not me?!?" feeling you don't want to admit to when someone else gets a win
Social Media
The constant need to feed the machine then having to deal with public 'opinion' 24-7
The "Biz"
Not feeling like you're 'good at the business stuff'; acronyms, royalties, contracts - oh my!
Judgement
Fear of what other people think whether it's family, friends, fans or strangers on the internet
Rejection
In the music industry, rejection is the name of the game and you can be as resilient as you like - it sucks
Money Talk
How do you know how much to charge, whats a 'fair deal', how much to expect for the feature?!
They Don't Get It
Family and friends who aren't creatives will never get it which can make it feel lonely
Overwhelm
There's so many creative places you could go, so any things to do - sometimes that can keep you stuck
...just to name a few
Mind Before Music is the private space that empowers and supports you through every stage of your music career.
MBM is for you when it's all working great (but it's a lot to process) and also when 'success' is taking a little longer than you'd hope.
This is the place that supports you when you get a no and when you also get a BIG mind blowing yes.
This is the place that supports you when you don't know how to ask to be paid, you're worrying about pushing back on an offer or don't feel confident communicating your needs.
If you're a serious music creative and this feels like you're kind of place - we'd love to have you part of the community
IMAGINE THIS...
You have clarity on what YOU want in your music career, you are trusting your intuition and no longer 'shoulding' all over yourself
You have regular empowerment & self- development practices you genuinely look forward to, that supports you to calmly and confidently create momentum in the areas of your life that matter the most.
You're creating new opportunities for yourself you didn't even think were possible because you've learned how to move past your fear of failure, reduced your second guessing and self judgement and put yourself out there in a way that shocks you, and makes you proud.
You are surrounded by amazing, non-judgmental, like-minded friends around the world who are also committed to living life on their terms making music.
You have regular coaching calls, community chat and resources at your fingertips that hep you to to navigate the industry and build your career with confidence.

☑ UNLOCKED: 6 WEEK MINDSET & MANIFESTATION COURSE - MADE FOR CREATIVES
When you join the membership you get access to the signature course that will immediately get you started on your personal growth journey. This is a mini course that you will reveal to you what you're truly capable of, whats currently holding you back and guide you through a process to unlock limitless potential.
*THIS COURSE IS EXCLUSIVE FOR THE MIND BEFORE MUSIC MEMBERSHIP*
☑ MONTHLY LIVE MINDSET COACHING CALLS
Inside these dynamic live coaching calls we will discuss common themes and challenges for music creatives and you will have the opportunity to ask a question and receive personalised transformational coaching.
Sample topics include: getting over resistance with social media, feeling good enough, getting over fear of ageing/feeling like you're running out of time, handling unsolicited feedback, building confidence to pitch yourself, networking with confidence, fear of judgement / failure / success
☑ MONTHLY LIFE "PLAN FOR SUCCESS" CALLS
At the start of each month you'll have the opportunity to be guided through a proven goal-achieving framework for getting clear on what you're working towards that month and how to not just set goals but achieve them without overwhelm. There's opportunities to ask questions, to get clarity on your goals and connect with like-minded individuals.
Walk away from these calls clear & confident for the month ahead.
Don't worry if you can't make it live..they're recorded and available to watch on replay.
☑ BI-MONTHLY 1 HOUR EXPERT SESSIONS
Every other month music industry leaders and experts will be joining us to help you achieve your creative goals.
Whether you're interested in music publishing, sync, production, songwriting, branding, social media growth, building career opportunities, or any other aspect of the music industry, you'll find expert guidance and insights that can help you grow and thrive.
This is an opportunity to get real insight on the "how" whilst you're becoming the person who's success is inevitable.
One of the bonus benefits of MBM membership is its unparalleled access to Lauren's extensive network of experts. Lauren has been in the industry for 15 years and has worked for PPL, Warner Music UK and is on the artist council of The Featured Artist Coalition. But also has been coaching artists & industry professionals since 2020.
☑ BI-MONTHLY ROUNDTABLE / MASTERMIND DISCUSSIONS
I often say that most of the challenges music creatives face can be solved by simply asking a peer "is this normal?" or "how did you do that?" or "how did you handle this situation?"
This is an opportunity to have an open discussion about topics that you are actually facing - or will face one day.
Sample topics include: distributors, management, charging for services, Sync, social media, getting older, getting married and having kids as an artist and so much more... you'll be notified of the topic coming up and if you'd like to join the conversation, we'd love to have you there.
☑ THE RESOURCE VAULT
When you join the membership you get instant access to the ever growing resource vault. It will continue to grow each month and will be jam packed with previous call recordings, expert sessions, journaling exercises, meditations, EFT tapping sessions and so much more... you can binge or simply plug into the themes most potent to you right now.
☑ PRIVATE COMMUNITY CHAT
When you join the membership you get instant access to the private community chat - a place to connect, make friends, share your wins and perhaps just find that next collaboration :) You'll immediately be able to see who is 'near you' in the world too which is fun.
☑ LIVE EVENTS, RETREATS, DISCOUNTS & INDUSTRY OPPORTUNITIES
The membership isn't just virtual - we will be holding live events throughout the year (no, not just in London). some of these will be free - some will be discounted for members. In addition to live events and retreat invites you'll have access to a number of industry discounts and opportunities.
