NORWAC 2026 Recap ft. Carina Thiemann Venegas on Building a Business by the Stars

NORWAC 2026 Recap ft. Carina Thiemann Venegas on Building a Business by the Stars

In May, I attended the Northwest Astrological Conference (NORWAC) in Seattle, WA. This episode is my full recap of one of the most life-changing weekends I've had in a long time. I learned more than I expected, met some incredible people, and experienced what it feels like to be completely surrounded by people who speak the language of the cosmos. I highlight my favorite lectures and even do a mini book haul of all the books I purchased during the conference. Then I sit down with Carina Thiemann Venegas - founder of Bare Face Kirkland - as she walks us through her journey of opening a Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS) studio and how astrology has been guiding her business decisions. Two very different conversations, one common thread: when you let the stars inform the way you move, everything changes.

The Local Music Scene Is the Blueprint: Music Industry Tips from FoCoMX

Breaking into the music industry doesn't require a move to LA, Nashville, or New York. It starts local - and FoCoMX is proof of that.

Part one breaks down actionable tips for anyone looking to get into the industry - why the local scene is the smartest starting point, how to use content creation as a career entry, and how to work your way into an artist's ecosystem without a single industry connection. Part two is direct feedback for local and emerging artists - the small but high-impact things that separate a memorable set from a forgettable one. Plus music recommendations from artists on the FoCoMX lineup. - Join the Gemini Baby Patreon, listen to the official Gemini Baby playlist, book a consultation, and more at geminibaby.com/links [http://geminibaby.com/links] Time Stamps 0:00 Introduction 4:40 Announcements 8:53 Working with FoCoMX 13:48 How to Get Into the Music Industry Professionally 39:43 Local Artists Show Insights and Tips 55:10 Music Recommendations 1:04:24 Collective Affirmation Music by Sam Ashe

Everyone's A Star: Music Industry & Astrology Predictions

The music industry is shifting and the planets are telling us exactly how.  In this episode, I'm breaking down my full music industry predictions for the next few years using four of the most significant outer planet transits we've seen in our lifetime: Pluto in Aquarius, Neptune in Aries, Saturn in Aries, and Uranus in Gemini. We're talking about marketing, collaborations, and why the gatekeeping of the music industry is officially being dismantled. I'm also going deep on AI and music, the rise of local scenes, the death of the old label model, accountability incoming, and what you need to be building right now to survive and thrive in this window. Whether you're an independent artist, a music professional, or someone who just loves music and wants to understand what's really happening - this episode is for you.
