Rob is the wonderful man behind our jingle you hear in the beginning and end of our show. Shownotes: Define happiness for yourself: Getting up everyday knowing I’m going to spend time with my kids. And spending the day creating and music and learning new things whether spiritual or a musical thing. Morning Routine: I get up and do yoga. I’ll try to meditate but if I don’t have time I try to do it later in the day. Spend time playing instruments. It’s all kind of technical, repetitive, and meditative types of things. And then it’s time to get the kids up. Evening Routine: Usually read. And if I haven’t meditated, I’ll do that then. 3 Self Care practices you can’t live without: Yoga Meditation Music How long do you spend doing yoga: Bodyweight training I’ll do less yoga and on the days I don’t do bodyweight training I do more intense yoga. So my practice can range from 20-40 minutes. Some days an hour. Something that wasn’t mentioned in your bio and your journey to becoming a musician: I think one thing that affected my work and my writing was that my mother is Bipolar. So growing up with that I think is unique. And when I look back at certain aspects of my childhood and everything. I didn’t know this was a thing until I witnessed it when I was 16 or 17, I saw her have an episode. From then on it was like a discovery of just learning certain things, as I was growing up, how her bipolarism affected certain things. And even a song on my new album is called “perfect stranger” which is about how we went on a trip to mexico and it was the first time I saw my mom have a breakdown. It was extremely traumatic and I remember being on the plane ride home sitting nest to a woman. She was probably early 20s. And I weirdly felt comfortable telling her everything that happened. And that’s basically the first time I confided in someone I didn’t know and you can hear certain lines in “Perfect Stranger” reflecting that. You go to schools and teach Kindness, Gratitude and Resilience. What Inspired you to start that and what kind of impact does it have on children?: The inspiration came from my friend Michael J. Chase. He wrote a few books: The Radical Practice of Loving Everyone: A Four-Legged Approach to Enlightenment Which he based the book on his dog that he recently lost Molly, and she’s on the cover of the book. So he had been doing this already and he loved my children’s CD and felt it went with what he was doing. So he was like, you should go into schools and do this. The vibration of music is really a powerful way to get a message across. I always work on making the program better in hopes to really reach everyone. What was the best decision you’ve made up until this point: There was a time where I took 4 years off from college and I started running a house painting business. I was studying music still in Boston but I was kind of floundering. I decided to sell the business cause I knew I didn’t want to do that. I ended up going back to school at U&H. And I was 25 at the time. And when I finally graduated I finally started working as a musician, which was my dream. Tell us about the most challenging time in your life and how you overcame it: I think it was definitely realizing what was going on with my mom. And how it took me so long to figure that out and make sense of that. And growing compassion towards those with mental illness. Mental illness is so devastating to young people. To overcome that I worked with a counselor and then a year ago I started seeing a therapist. Meditation also helps.
