Alynn Naylor is a singer-songwriter, writer, and creative entrepreneur who spent 15 years behind the scenes writing songs, ghostwriting, developing artists, and helping others build before stepping fully into visibility under her own name.

In this episode, Alynn talks about the years people don’t see — survival mode, creative discipline, social media, success vs. visibility, artist development, business planning, and what it takes to build a creative life that actually lasts.

We also get into songwriting, protecting your energy, her memoir So We Never Finish the Record, upcoming music, touring, and why having a plan matters just as much as having talent.

This conversation is for artists, writers, musicians, entrepreneurs, and anyone still building before the world catches up.

Hosted by Paris Heart and Jaeson Williams

In Episode 2 of Before It Made Sense, we sit down with Thomas “Teeba” Forbes — a Grammy-nominated musician, producer, and bassist — for a real conversation about what it actually takes to build a life in music.Teeba talks about his journey through funk, hip-hop, R&B, jazz, and beyond, while opening up about the side of the industry people rarely see: major credits not always meaning financial stability, side hustles protecting the art, unpaid sessions, long drives, creative relationships, and learning how to trust yourself before the outside world fully understands what you’re building.We also talk about collaboration, failure, versatility, life experience, and why sometimes the simplest thing you play can make somebody feel the most.This episode is about the years of showing up, figuring it out, and staying connected to the work before it all makes sense.Follow Thomas “Teeba” Forbes:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/teeba_forbesWebsite: https://teebamusic.com/Follow Before It Made Sense:Instagram: @BeforeItMadeSenseTikTok: @BeforeItMadeSenseYouTube: @BeforeItMadeSense#BeforeItMadeSense #TeebaForbes #MusicPodcast #CreativeJourney #MusicIndustry #ProducerLife #ArtistJourney #Podcast
