Today marks a special moment in my life—my birthday, November 13th. But this year, I’m not just celebrating one more trip around the sun.
I’m celebrating something deeper: the joy of living in alignment with my life’s purpose—empowering musicians to rise, reclaim their time, and prosper in ways they once thought impossible.
And what better way to honor this milestone than by sharing the story of someone who’s done exactly that?
In this episode of Musicians Creating Prosperity, I sit down with Nana Grace, a visionary piano teacher and competition director who completely transformed her career using the Musician’s Profit Umbrella® framework.

The True Gift: Making an Impact
Nana’s story is especially meaningful to share on my birthday because it reminds me why I do this work.
Yes, I’m grateful for health, family, and all the blessings this year has brought. But more than anything, I’m grateful for the ability to make a real difference—to help musicians like Nana break free from burnout, rediscover their power, and step into aligned, joyful success.
Helping others create lives of impact and freedom… That’s the greatest gift of all.
From Overworked to Empowered: Nana’s Journey
Nana came to the program with decades of experience and a waitlist of students—but also with a heavy heart. She was teaching 45 hours a week, constantly preparing for competitions, and on the verge of burnout.
Through our work together, she:
- Cut her hours to 22 per week
- Tripled her rates (earning over $430/month per student)
- Embraced group teaching without sacrificing student results
- Built a streamlined curriculum and digital ecosystem
- Found her voice as a confident, empowered leader
She now teaches with more freedom, more income, and more joy—and her students are thriving like never before.

Why This Story Matters—Especially Today
I’m sharing this episode not just because Nana’s transformation is remarkable (it is). But because it captures something deeper that I’m celebrating today:
The profound impact that happens when women in music choose themselves—their purpose, their voice, their financial freedom.
This isn’t just about business growth. It’s about reclaiming your time, your health, your creativity—and using your gifts to lead with intention.
That’s what I wish for every musician reading this. That’s what I’m celebrating on my birthday.
Here’s to Impact, Prosperity, and Purpose
Whether you’re reading this on my birthday or any other day, I invite you to celebrate with me—not just my life, but the lives we’re changing together.
This is the real music of entrepreneurship: Freedom. Fulfillment. And the power to transform lives—including your own.
