EP#27: Why Is Collaboration So Scary?

EP#27: Why Is Collaboration So Scary?

Have you ever struggled with co-writing or collaboration?  Maybe you are not too sure where to start with it all?  Or perhaps you’r feeling some anxiety or fear around moving into that realm?

Inside my Radical Songwriting Facebook Group we have been chatting about collaboration and it’s been a really amazing conversation.  

“I have not done a lot of cowriting and when I have, I have struggled to find that connection/chemistry with someone.

Has anyone else ever felt that? 

Some of the answers were absolute GOLD…

It's a learning curve. For me it was putting any ego away and it being about the song. 

There's no bad ideas, just ones that aren't right for the song and so on. 

Sometimes songs happen kinda fast and sometimes they materialize more slowly. 

Having fun is important.

Something that can often be overlooked is that we are all actually excellent resources for each other.  We are all facilitators of each other’s learning.

Inside my signature program, Radical Songwriting Academy, we created a bonus module, a deep dive into collaboration which included a ten-point checklist and my three golden rules for collaboration communication.

In today’s episode of the podcast I wanted to share some of that premium content with you so here is my Top Three Tips for Collaboration Success.

So why not get yourself out there and start collaborating!  

You never know who you will meet or where it will lead.  Come and join us in Radical songwriting too if you have not already and let’s connect together!
