Music
From record labels, to artist management, start-up companies, and now teaching as a college professor, Adam LaRue has truly done it all! He joins this week to tell his story and share some great advice specifically on how to avoid burnout in the music industry which is something I think is important to talk about and be more mindful of. I truly hope y'all love this one as much as I did. Enjoy!
