My episode with Dee Kei from the Mixing Music Podcast just dropped! Dee Kei asked the questions that cut straight to why mix engineers stay stuck despite being genuinely talented.---
What We Covered
Why your mixes aren't the problem—your systems are
The identity trap of thinking you're "just a mixer"
How selling hours instead of transformations keeps you broke
The mindset narratives secretly running your career
Why 80% of work comes from relationships, not ads
What being a "caregiver" means versus a service provider
The business reality nobody taught you at audio school
Watch If...
You're technically solid but financially struggling
You've been at the same rates for years
You know something's off but can't identify it
You're ready to hear why talent alone isn't enough
You want to build an actual business, not just trade time---
Dee Kei brought real depth to this conversation, pushing past the surface-level mixing talk to examine what actually creates sustainable careers in audio. If you're not listening to Mixing Music Podcast, you're missing conversations that go beyond plugins and into the reality of this business.
