In this deeply personal episode, I take you behind the scenes of my winning audition for the Lyric Opera Orchestra at 47 years old. I’m sharing the real preparation process, the mental work, the conditioning, and the mindset shifts that carried me through 90 days of intense preparation and into the audition room. In this episode: • How I prepared mentally, physically, and musically while working full time and raising a family • Why trust under pressure matters more than “feeling confident” • The surprising gap between how a performance feels and how it actually sounds &nbsp; &nbsp; If you’re ready to step on stage with confidence, perform at your best, and win that next audition, join me inside The Music Mastery Experience.
