Finding Your Voice: Confidence, Collaboration & Building a Lasting Career in Music with Kaydence
In this episode, Stefani Fryzel sits down with 2x Grammy Award-winning songwriter Kaydence to explore what it really takes to build a sustainable career in the music industry. From finding your creative voice to writing chart-topping hits for artists like Ariana Grande and Beyoncé, Kaydence shares the lessons she's learned through years of persistence, growth, and showing up before she felt fully ready. Together, they discuss why confidence is built through repetition—not perfection—the importance of surrounding yourself with collaborators who bring out your best, and how developing multiple skills can create opportunities when they matter most. Kaydence also opens up about navigating rejection, overcoming self-doubt, advocating for yourself as a songwriter, and why relationships, preparation, and timing often matter just as much as talent. You'll discover why finding your voice takes time, how versatility can accelerate your career, and why investing in your craft beyond songwriting can open unexpected doors. Kaydence also shares behind-the-scenes stories from working with Ariana Grande, practical advice for writers feeling stuck, and her perspective on the evolving music industry and the fight for fair treatment of songwriters. This episode is a reminder that success isn't built from one breakthrough moment—it's built through years of showing up, continuing to learn, and trusting that your preparation will meet the right opportunity.
