#234 - Rethinking Sonic Identity

Remember last episode when we talked about finding your "sonic signature"? Well, Carl had some revelations that completely flip that concept on its head.

In this follow-up episode, we explore why searching for a single, definable "signature sound" might be the wrong approach entirely. Instead, we dive into the idea of "sonic identity" - a more nuanced way of understanding how different clients connect with different aspects of your creative self.

Discover:

• Why trying to define your "signature sound" might be limiting you
• How different clients naturally gravitate to different parts of your creative identity
• The art of staying open to opportunities while maintaining direction
• Why it's important to occasionally say yes to unexpected adventures

Bonus: Ben shares a story about a mysterious wig company jingle that we'll probably never get to hear.
