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.
