Episode 56 - Growing as a Songwriter with Sebastian Javier

One of the most beautiful things about being a songwriter is that growth is endless. As we grow as people, we change as writers. Songwriting is a journey that’s full of learning, evolving, and special moments of realization. I couldn’t be more honored to welcome Sebastian Javier onto the show to chat all about growing as a songwriter. The quote for this episode is by Paul Simon: “It’s very helpful to start with something that’s true. If you start with something that’s false, you’re always covering your tracks. Something simple and true, that has a lot of possibility, is a nice way to begin.” Sebastian and I explore growing as songwriters in such an open and honest way. We discuss authenticity and truth in our writing, things we keep in mind while writing, writing and releasing music in both English and Spanish, realizations of growth and change, the importance of trust, lessons learned, sources of inspiration, and so much more. This is truly an honest and inspiring conversation, and I hope you enjoy it. Are you enjoying Write on Track? Do you have a topic suggestion for an episode? Would you like to be a guest?
