The Unicorn Mothershit - Going It Alone In Electronic Music: Recent Episodes

Eline Van Audenaerde

This podcast is for those brave souls in the dance music industry - the entrepreneurs and musicpreneurs who are trying to make a living doing something most people question. Is there money in that? 


After having been active in the music industry for 20+ years, I founded The Unicorn Mothership in 2015, a holistic coaching business for DJs and electronic music producers.

My mission is to help them cultivate a greater sense of personal wellness and mental wellbeing to get confident about their next steps so that they can move the needle in dance music.

Here I share my innermost thoughts and feelings about running a business and building a life around my passion for electronic music.

My name is Eline, and I can’t believe I’m sharing this - this is The Unicorn Mothershit.

Scruffing a cat - grabbing it by the neck, is something you should never do. When a cat is ill or injured and needs treatment, we often wonder how to hold a cat. I looked into how to pick up a cat when one of my cats - Dora Jane, got seriously injured. I was surprised at what I found. Which made me think about beliefs and habits passed down by generations.

In this episode, I talk about how that invitations for Human Design Projectors go both ways. Meaning, Projectors feeling open to invitations they’ve actually intended on calling in, is super important. And of course, the invitations have to be aligned, in the accepting of them, as well.

In this episode, I’m kinda hating on the whole notion of consistency in your business, work, life, music - any and all areas of life. Because consistency for me no longer is a condition for my personal success. Want to drop some of those rules yourself? You can by dropping the need to overcome lack of consistency in your life. To stop wondering why you struggle with consistency, or what makes someone consistent.
