In this episode, Tara talks about the importance of destroying the perfect in order to get down to the details. First off, let's be honest, NOTHING IS PERFECT. And secondly, when you really get into the details you will see that there is always more. There is always another level. There is always deeper. It's time we allow the perfection to get messed up so we can build it up again.

James Conner is a young American songwriter, producer, and mix engineer, known for his unique ability to contribute to every part of the creative process and a passionate dedication to detail.

In this episode, Tara talks about the importance of having the courage to pivot. Many times we choose to keep doing what we've always done. Whether it's because of comfort, time, or lack of fresh ideas, your unwillingness to change your vision, can also cause you to experience burn out and break down. If you want to have growth and still keep the passion to produce, maybe it's time for a pivot.

In this episode, Tara discusses, with great vulnerability, how God has used her fans to build her up in the times she's needed it most. Often times we lose sight of the people that are lifting us up in prayer. God hears them and He care about what you're going through. Take some time to day and thank Him for the people He has put in your life for this very moment.

In this episode, Tara discusses the importance of knowing your identity. She shares some insight she has learned from a recent health issue where she was forced to rest and not create content. While it was very difficult to embrace the idea of not knowing who she was apart from what she did, the reality of a solid relationship with God has helped her understand the truth. Instead of continuing to strive for happiness and joy and health, maybe it's time we rest in Him and remember who we really are. We are ALL who He says we are. Enjoy today.

In this episode, Tara talks about the importance of being where you are called to be. Often times we make decisions based off of what "makes sense" or what is comfortable. But, we will only thrive when we are doing what God has set up for us to do. The path that seems right, isn't always the path for you. You can't afford to settle. Don't let your experiences or circumstances put a limit on what you can accomplish. God knows your strengths and your weaknesses and He has a plan that will line you up with your destiny.

In this episode, Tara talks about the absolute reality of living a double life. It sounds super cryptic -- maybe even downright wrong -- but the fact of the matter is, most of us do it. Whether it's being a single parent and juggling five jobs or working in corporate America and trying to be the family man, we are often left with trying to figure out how to turn on and off the double lives we live. It's not even about trying to eliminate it. It's about properly stewarding it. Keep the main thing the main thing. Enjoy.

In this episode, Tara tells the truth behind the idea of "Gatekeepers". Whether in music, sports, or any audition based job or platform, Gatekeepers can oftentimes be what stands between you and your expected moment of glory. The truth about their purpose can be quite intimidating if not all together gross. But when you have a real understanding of their existence and a clear perspective of your talent and worth, Gatekeepers are nothing more than another step in your path to victory.
