Hi Adam, thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to share your story, experiences and insights with our readers. Let’s jump right in with an interesting one: When was the last time you felt true joy?
Giving my dog a bath last night and seeing how happy she is after it!

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I’m Adam Frost, founder and lead instructor of Highland Park Guitar Lessons in Dallas, Texas. I have over 15 years of professional guitar playing experience and more than 10 years of teaching private guitar lessons to students of all ages and skill levels.

At Highland Park Guitar Lessons, we specialize in private, one-on-one guitar lessons in Dallas as well as online guitar lessons for students across the U.S. and worldwide via Zoom, FaceTime, and Skype. Whether you’re looking for in-person guitar lessons in DFW or flexible online guitar instruction from home, we provide personalized, results-driven training tailored to your goals.

We teach children (ages 10+), teens, adults, and seniors, from complete beginners learning their first chords to advanced guitarists focused on technique, improvisation, songwriting, and performance. Students can study a wide range of styles including rock, metal, blues, classical, acoustic, and contemporary guitar.

What sets Highland Park Guitar Lessons apart is our highly customized teaching approach. Every student receives a personalized lesson plan based on their musical interests, learning style, and long-term goals. We also offer unmatched flexibility, with both studio guitar lessons in Dallas and convenient online guitar lessons anywhere. With a broad performance background spanning folk to metal, I bring real-world industry experience into every lesson.

Today, I’m focused on expanding our online guitar lesson programs while continuing to offer high-quality private guitar lessons in Dallas and beyond. Whether you’re local to DFW or learning remotely, Highland Park Guitar Lessons provides a professional, supportive path to mastering the guitar at your own pace.

Okay, so here’s a deep one: What breaks the bonds between people—and what restores them?
Not recognizing each other deserve the same respect and dignity we want and the breaking of trust. What restores us is forgiving and focusing on growing together and having empathy towards each other, recognizing we are all suffering in one way or another.

What did suffering teach you that success never could?
It taught me how to truly love and accept myself and I wouldn’t have such a need for that if I had only success. But success is more fun for sure.

Next, maybe we can discuss some of your foundational philosophies and views? What do you believe is true but cannot prove?
I believe that personal connection is the true foundation of effective teaching. You can’t fully quantify trust, inspiration, or the moment when someone finally believes in themselves—but those invisible elements are what make real progress possible.

Before we go, we’d love to hear your thoughts on some longer-run, legacy type questions. If you retired tomorrow, what would your customers miss most?
My kindness, support and effort in showing others the value of self-investment.
