    Ep. 32 - What to Expect Inside Mini Mindset PORTAL for Soul Artists 2023

    We are one week OUT from Mini Mindset for Soul Artists 2023! Welcome to Empathetic Musicians! On today's podcast episode hosted by Sophia Stermer, Founder of Release with Sophia, we are giving you a taste of what to expect inside the FREE 3-Day Event Mini Mindset for Soul Artists 2023. If you’re new to Release with Sophia, welcome! I refer to women and LGBTQIA+ musicians as Soul Artists.    Day 1 will look like a similar process to how I picked myself back up in the very beginning back in late 2019. I know some of our listeners are pursuing music as a career and that’s incredible! I support all types of Soul Artists!  Day 2, will look like a similar process to how I continued to reset my mindset and get rid of old stories I used to tell myself. I’m interested in helping you individually reset your mindset and develop a MAGICAL mindset! Day 3, is Stepping into the PORTAL. We will be doing affirmation work, something that is recent to my journey, but also has been proven to me ONE of the most helpful tools in my life. AND MORE TO COME during our 3-Day Event!
