What do you think is the biggest obstacle to performing at your best, beyond the musical or technical aspects?

Hello everyone,
 

My name is Jacopo, and as well as working as a tonebase Guitar coach, I also work as a coach with musicians, focusing on performance mindset, confidence, and performance anxiety.

I'm currently speaking with performers and teachers about how musicians experience performance anxiety, self-doubt, confidence, and what helps them perform at their best. I'm always curious to hear new perspectives, and I'd love to hear yours too.

In your experience, what do you think is the biggest obstacle to performing at your best, beyond the musical or technical aspects?

I'm also looking to have a few informal 20–30 minute Zoom conversations with musicians and teachers who would be happy to share their experiences. There's nothing to buy or sign up for, I'm simply exploring the patterns people notice across different performance experiences. Feel free to comment below or send me a message if you'd be interested.

Thank you,

Jacopo
