Hello and welcome to my blog and website!
I'm your host, "KG Melodies" and I'm here to give you a sneak peak in the mysterious life of Kevin Guardado.
Human and mere mortal, he's got a lot going on and absolutely nothing at the same time!
Intriguing...
Let's take a look at how his summer went!
Based on a collection of leaked photos, interviews and video footage, it seems as though he's still "doing his thing". Whatever that means. Here's a excerpt from a recent interview:
"Summer was awesome! I had to quit social media and even playing and producing music for a while. A lot was happening and I had to focus my attention on a few key things.
This meant letting go of music...at least for a while. No practicing, writing, producing and performing. It was tough but well needed.
I'm still teaching music part-time, but I had to change my routine from when I was a full-time musician in 2020. I learned a lot then, but 2021 has brought even more insight and wisdom.
Long story short, being a musician full-time took the love and passion out of it.
I was doing it for money, because that's the only choice you have to survive in California...
Slowly, my passion for it drifted a way.
I took on other means of income and the love for music came back! I realized I enjoy doing it for the sake of creating and connecting with others, using the beautiful medium of music. Rule number one as a musician in California - Don't quit your day job! lol
I decided to pursue Health and Fitness again. I have been working as a personal trainer just as long as I have been playing music. Working in two different industries helps refresh my mind from either other, fueling each other to grow more intensely.
Not only that, I don't have to do music for money anymore!
I can enjoy it for what it is, without the pressure to feed and house me.
As an artist, this is incredible - as I can focus on just the art.
I started a personal training service in May of 2021 called Restorative Fitness.
I hit the ground running! My main focus was to give as much of my time and energy in to my clients and to build my business from the ground up.
Starting a business came with many challenges. I'm no longer just a coach, but the owner who does the accounting, bookkeepping, scheduling, training, programming and marketing. It's a team of one. I had to focus my attention on only that.
In that time, I was surprised I was able to start a small backyard garden. This was completely random and new to me, but gave me a place to quiet my mind amongst the noise. It helped me to get outside, enjoy the sun and sweat and be in nature. Most of all, be with God and make time for my faith.
I even produced a piece of music - which I hope to share very soon!
Summer was a grind and I do love a challenge.
I didn't have much time for vacations and social interactions.
I had to focus on the things that matter most:
My work, my family and my faith.
It's the little things and moments that make it all worth it!"
Stay tuned for the next update.
