You Are Enough

Your struggles don’t define your worth.

“This industry glorifies grind and self-destruction. But I’ve learned the hard way that you can’t pour from an empty cup. Whether you’re creating the music or finding meaning in it, your mental health matters. You don’t need to suffer to be valid. You matter more than your next release, your next show, or the next track that gets you through the night.”

Jon Hadley
