We talk about how importantly crucial it is to manage our flow zones to optimize growth trajectory, hear from a very successful student breaking through on his journey of learning by-ear, and then learn how to put a two octave major pentatonic scale into Blue Ridge Cabin Home on the mandolin and also guitar. Happy New Year everyone!
