“What if the key to artistic freedom wasn’t just talent—but financial knowledge?

 

Today, we’re diving deep with an artist who’s not just rocking stages—he’s changing lives. Meet Gooding—a musician, producer, and financial literacy advocate on a mission to empower musicians and young people with the tools they need to take control of their money, their careers, and their futures.

 

From playing thousands of shows across the country to standing in front of high school classrooms, Gooding has seen firsthand how financial education—or the lack of it—can make or break a dream. He’s here to break the myths, share the hard lessons, and give artists and young people the financial mindset they never knew they needed.

 

If you’re a musician struggling with the business side of your career, a young creative wondering how to build wealth, or just someone looking for real talk about money, this episode is for you.
