The One Thing That Keeps Me Steady Lately

Published 14 days ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader,

Things have been hard lately.

I’ve been dealing with big house repairs (think 6 digits) and a very difficult tenant (think lots of legal research). It’s been stressful, and I’ve cried more than once.

But teaching piano helps me feel okay again.
It’s something I know how to do.
It brings joy to others.
And it brings me peace too.

Music is what keeps me steady—and what I want to help you with too.

Thank you for reading these emails and watching the videos. When someone replies or leaves a kind YouTube comment, it really lifts me up. I don’t always know if these emails help you, but I hope they do.

If you want detailed, personalized guidance tailored to your playing—support that goes beyond these emails—my community is the perfect next step.

Warmly,

Rebecca

Hi Reader, Yesterday was… not my best day. If you got a weird “test” email or a video link that didn’t work—yep, that was me. (Well, me and the assistant I was trying to train.) I’ve been working on hiring help to free up more time… but clearly, I chose the wrong person. She sent a test message to my entire list. My inbox blew up. And honestly? I’m glad it did. Your replies reminded me that you’re actually out there reading—and rooting for me. Thank you. On top of that, I’m in the middle of...

This week's video

Hi Reader, I just spent an hour and a half editing a 22-second video. Watch it here: Why? Because I’m switching to new video editing software: DaVinci Resolve. CapCut—my old program—updated its Terms of Service to give themselves the right to own and use anything I create on their platform. Forever. I don't want to see myself showing up in an ad. Or worse yet, they sell my footage to a competitor.So I’m learning new software that gives me full control, even if it’s painfully slow at first. It...

Stop practicing alone

Hi Reader, We just passed 105 members inside Piano with Rebecca B! 🎉 And this week, I got a fun little surprise—Skool awarded me a “Top 1% Community Builder” star. Of course I’m thrilled the group is growing—but what really makes me happy is the kind of support and beauty happening inside.Just this morning, a young member—probably still in high school—performed all three of his Level 7 ABRSM exam pieces live on Zoom. After playing, he simply asked: “What can I improve?” Two of our members,...
