PROJECT PEER-MENTORING
“I will meet you where you're at now and help you grow from there” Jon
WHO IS THIS FOR?
“If you're a dedicated, open and willing neurodivergent musician feeling overwhelmed, stuck, out of sync with modern methods or just need a soundboard that isn't AI, generic or judgemental, then I'm here. The peer side of what I offer means I'm an active musician in the trenches with you. And the mentoring side means I can bring all my experience, knowledge and resources to help you thrive on your terms” Jon
ABOUT JON and his approach
"I have been learning, building, creating and tutoring within the music business and industry for over 20 years now. Alongside teaching thousands of guitar pupils I worked with music peers and students to carve out what I call their SPICES - Sound, Purpose, Identity, Consistency (and Courage), Excitement and Success.
My peer-mentoring approach is to meet you exactly where you are now in the present. Not to dwell on the past (unless there are useful things to draw from to bring into the present i.e. assets, contacts etc) and not to fear the future. But to instead help co-create a north star with you so we can trek this adventure together.
The most important work is the foundational work where we aim to synchronise your inside and outside world so they're working as one, rather than against each other. And once aligned a natural cycle between in and out will create an authentic flow state where there's no more expecting, assuming, forcing or chasing.
This is the foundation every neurodivergent musician should be building from. In this space you'll be solidified in your what, why, who, where and when. And this will naturally develop your map, compass, provisions, tribe and markers. Without this essential work we would be trekking in the dark.
Disclaimer. I am not a qualified therapist or coach. But I do have real life experience working in the music world, along with going through my own metamorphosis after all my life pillars collapsed in my late 30s, to reset myself in the right direction. I try not to delve into the deep healing work a therapist or counsellor will do (I have my own therapist) and I recommend all NDMs do this alongside my peer mentoring." Jon
HOW IT WORKS?
STEP 1 - ENQUIRE
Get in touch below with info about you, your music, where your music career is at right now, your vision and your goals and reasons for needing Jon as your NDM mentor.
STEP 2 - AUDIT
If your answers align and you're a career driven neurodivergent musician who is open and willing to grow, Jon will record you a free personal video audit. He'll explain what's working, what needs attention and where he can help.
STEP 3 - ALIGNMENT
After your audit, if it feels right for both of you, Jon will send you more info and costs for what he believes is required to achieve your vision. A call can be arranged if you need one. He only works with long term clients and has limited slots available.
