3 attendees Music Creator Mental Health Support Group
HOME - Helping Our Music Evolve, 615 Main St g1, Nashville, TN, USAs creators, we juggle a lot...the writing, the recording, the mixes, the visuals, the rollout, the social content, the brand. It all matters, but sometimes the way we prioritize those tasks is less about progress and more about protection.
It’s easier to keep “working on it” than to face the risk of releasing it.
This month’s group is about looking honestly at what gets our time and energy. Are we staying busy with tweaks, plans, and strategies as a way to feel safe? Are we delaying the part that actually connects us - sharing the work?
In this group, we’ll reflect on:
- How creators get stuck in process, whether that’s art, promotion, or business grind
- Why it can feel safer to keep prioritizing “what’s next” over “what’s now”
- What it costs us when release and connection never reach the top of the list
- How we can support each other in shifting focus toward impact and visibility
This support group is a confidential, come-as-you-are space for music creators to talk about the pressures we carry, listen if that’s what we need, and find solidarity with others who understand.
This session is offered free to the public thanks to HOME – Helping Our Music Evolve and the Helping Music Foundation. If you’re able, consider making a donation to help keep these gatherings available to the creators who rely on them.

Meet My Music: Virtual Studio Hang
Online>> This is where artists show up and get heard.
Meet My Music is a space to share your work, talk about your creative process, and find collaborators who take music seriously.
HOME’s A&R Team listens with intention. They’re looking for Homies to invite into writing rooms and sync-focused sessions. This is your chance to make that connection. This session is open to members and non-members.
Whether you’re a producer, songwriter, artist, or industry rep, you belong here. Every voice adds to the momentum. If you’ve been building something, share it. If you’re between projects, come for the inspiration.
The format is casual. The impact is real.
A note on music share time: We can’t guarantee everyone will have the chance to play a song. Arrive early and have a streaming link ready (no file uploads). If the queue fills up, stay engaged. The insight you gain from hearing others, the feedback exchanged, and the support you show still count. Listening with intention builds community and makes you a better creator.
RSVP, come through, and make your presence count.
Please join this event HERE. Due to protective measures, we've moved these meetups into our HOME community app. Once you click through to join us, you'll be asked to create your FREE Account in the HOME App to join the hang! See you soon!
