Having babies will not ruin your career.
I’ve had the baby talk with countless musicians over the years and while everyone has their own way of saying it, most artists and musicians are simply afraid that having a baby will ruin their career.
It won’t.
If you want babies, have them. If you don’t want them, that’s great too.
But don’t put it off because you think it’ll be better timing after a tour or an album cycle or a certain level of success. Those are just excuses.
You’re afraid and that’s ok. Now get on with it.
***In full disclosure, I too was scared for a long time. It sounded like this, ‘I need to be ready first’. But could never define ‘ready’. And then I realized that readiness had nothing to do with it…willingness was what I needed.
I have two babies.
