About this episode

What are the advantages and disadvantages of learning on your own?

There are so many benefits to learning on your own, especially now that we have access to so many materials, videos and practice online. We can literally learn whenever and however we want!

But sometimes we get off track, get stuck, or simply don’t know what to focus on. What can we do from there? What does it take to keep the momentum going when studying alone, and what are the advantages and disadvantages of learning on your own? That’s exactly what we’ll talk about today.

If you’re looking for a system with a full circle of support that keeps you on track, motivated and inspired, I’m inviting you to check out my program New Sound which is open for enrollment until Thursday, September 21. https://bit.ly/3ZcYhus
