20: The Dark Side Of Being A Touring Musician.

What is it like being a touring musician? How does it affect our mental state, our bodies and our relationships? Today I talk about this as I have a big tour approaching this year. We talk a lot about body image and the affects being a live performer has that. I also open up about how it affects my anxiety and how I try to cope with it. It's a complex episode today, full of wandering meanderings but it all leads back to the core issue of the mental preparation that goes into being a tourist artist. I'm joined once again by my producer Jenny May Finn.
