Amid the bombardment of unsolicited advice from social media experts who rarely engage in the creative process themselves, it's easy to conflate the act of creation with the strategy of sharing. Reflecting on your audience—whether fans, fellow artists, friends, or industry professionals—can redefine your artistic journey. While understanding the 'Why' and 'How' of artistry is important, identifying the 'Who' can illuminate the path forward considerably. 

The crucial question isn't just about getting discovered—it's about being ready when you are. This is more than just talent and ambition; it reveals the essential foundation every artist must build to thrive. Authenticity, continuous growth in one’s craft, and genuine relationship-building.
