ZM Happy Floral Friday,
August has a way of making creators feel like they need a brand-new engine. You don’t. You need maintenance: one meaningful task, one honest check-in, and a little water. If you’re mixing, writing, designing, or just trying to keep the plate from wobbling—commit to one non-negotiable action today (eight bars, one mix fix, one outreach), then shut the laptop before burnout sneaks in. Progress is boring on purpose. That’s how it sticks.

Floral Friday
No Song of the Week today since we had no submissions—let’s get excited for August and (fingers crossed) a couple extra newsletters this weekend to kick things off right. Want your song featured next Friday? Reach out to Zaal and we’ll consider it for Song of the Week.

P.S. We’re rebranding this series to Mindful Moments for Musicians (& other Creators). If you’ve got a better name, hit reply.
