When I was in my twenties, my husband and I played in a rock band together. For some reason, I had this belief that if we ever got any notice, got any little bit of fame at all, our marriage would fall apart. So, I never pushed myself, or our band, to really get out there. In fact, we kept sabatoging ourselves by choosing drummers that couldn't commit LOL!
Now a wiser woman, I still get out there, I still sing and perform, and am actually busier than when we had our band back in the 90s. I've managed to release that belief, and enjoy sharing my talents while in the safety of a secure marriage.
