Hi girl! Well this was very nice to read because you were so open expressing your emotions and your own fears.
I think that the mental barries can be crossed only by us, regardless of how much somebody else tries to push us forward. The force , lol, has to come from within.
I can relate with singing in the shower, making sure that I hide lol . I recorded myself years ago and I remember that I thought that I have a softer voice than what I would have liked. Whatever that might have meant then lol.
Having your partner into music can help a lot as you do not have to worry about singing to an instrument too while performing the vocals.
Fear comes from the past. You think that you would sound bad because of the past experience which got stuck like a sticky gum to the brain lol. Time to remove the gum as it hinders progress. You will feel it when you are ready. Give yourself time and imagine only good things.
Singing just for money or views kills the joy. It becomes like a 9 to 5 job, I would dislike it very much. It is like with any other passion: trying to squeeze the money only kills the beauty of it.
I believe in doing things firstly because you like doing them. Usually money follows.
Thank you for reading and supporting me, I wish you gorgeous holidays🤗🥰
