Getting to see Ryan take a song from beginning to end, to a finished song — that was just extremely valuable for me.
It gave me an entirely new songwriting workflow. Watching Ryan's songwriting process and what he does and doesn't spend time on was a big learning experience.
The way Ryan displays his work flow is beyond enlightening. Finally started finishing songs after years of being stuck in a loop, literally.
It's very valuable to watch Ryan work in real time, in a realistic and relatable way. He has lots of good advice and his workflow feels relatable and human.
Ryan gave a glimpse into serious pro songwriting practices. He was so open with his knowledge!

I learned more with this than I have in the last year.
