Think your questions through thoroughly, write them down, continue to think on them and research for another few days or a week, add to/better your question list and then hire a lawyer. They are expensive and no BS, meaning there is never a reason to add any casualties of conversation or emotion into a convo with a lawyer. Straight to the point is best. Also, many lawyers offer free consultations so you can see if they can even meet your needs- during this consultation you can practice asking these questions (and begin dissolving the made up idea that your questions are dumb) and start to get more clear on exactly what type of legal advice you need. It took me a year to even understand what questions to ask and to become clear on different business terms like nexus, exclusive copyright vs non exclusive, LLC taxed as an S corp, registered agent, virtual business address. etc. Keep reading and watching yt vids and soon enough your brain will begin to honestly and confidently grasp these new business-specific terms.

Honestly it’s become a joy for me in my business this year as I attemptes to on board 4 different artists and ended up “firing” them each because they didn’t meet my needs for a variety of reasons. This means I spent an extra year + executing a task aka a failure each time an artist did not workout but since finding the artist that works seamlessly with my vision I am grateful for all those failures and now I just see failures as me firing anything that isn’t in alignment with my core intention/vision.

100% not too harsh. Intense and emotionally charged aka harsh doesn’t always mean wrong or bad. You did alot of work and your actions are merited .

Also: I am starting a business on my own and reading your break down of all that you did deepened my appreciation for the several roles I have played thus far and for the value of a team that uplifts each other and works in integrity. Hoping your next venture is met with virtue and clarity!
