Episode 0047 - Tom

Feel Free to Deviate

Episode 47 of Feel Free to Deviate features singing, songwriting, guitar playing creative person, Tom Sturm. Our paths originally crossed in the late 90s when he moved into a house with a bunch of my friends. He’s a musician, but as many parents of musicians have noted over the years, making money as a musician can be… challenging. Because of that, he currently works as a content creator at Cooley Dickinson Hospital in Northampton, MA, but he always seems to have some sort of project for himself and anyone who will listen. He’s been making stuff since he was a kid, and as far as I can tell he doesn’t plan to stop. Tom is all in.

Topics include:

• Cooley Dickinson
• Content creation
• The curse of the artist
• musical development
• The art of the pop song
• Vagus Nerve Reset
• Being an experienced elder, and what that means to a 20 year old
• So much more!!!
