		<description><![CDATA[Ever wonder how a classically trained musician from a conservatory background handles the day-to-day of being a self-employed businessperson? So do I. Actually, I think I&#8217;m getting better at this whole balance thing. But it&#8217;s still quite a challenge, one that has unforeseen pitfalls and nuances around every corner. And I even have a great [...]]]></description>
