Summary
My guest today is singer and songwriter Hayley Teal . Hayley’s been a professional musician since her teens — from X Factor and major sync deals to cover bands, TV show bands like Dancing with the Stars and Australian idol, and now releasing her own music fully on her own terms — all while stepping into a brand-new chapter of life as a soon-to-be mum. We talk real industry life, burnout, songwriting without validation, and why an artist’s legacy matters more than streams. And she’s got a crazy quarantine story… Check out Hayley's website here and instagram here .
