Hello Sparkler, Waited for someone to finally notice how brilliant you are? Built your entire sense of worth on what other people think of you? Yeah. Me too.

I know that feeling. Intimately. So when I found out that Olivia Dean performed to four people in 2023, and then won a Grammy in 2026, I needed to understand how. Not the luck. Not the breaks. The actual mechanics of how someone goes from an empty room to the most commercially coveted artist in Britain...
Dear Sparkler, Quick question. Have you ever bought a training course at 11pm on a Tuesday because you were feeling wobbly about whether you actually know what you're doing? Yeah. Me too. Thousands of pounds worth, actually. I wrote about it this week on Substack and it's probably the most honest thing I've put out there in a while.
