HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS EPISODE
QUOTES & SNIPPETS
“It’s like I’m seeing the pyramid of Egypt for the first time when I’m watching him (son), that sense of wonder, seeing his little personality grow”
“No matter how much work you do on yourself (e.g meditation, Wim Hof ice showers) - you can still fall into bad habits. We are all a work in progress”
“Keep the harmony. If you don’t get things ironed out with yourself and your band or business; there’s no longevity”
“Yoga was a revolutionary force in my life; the one place, apart from making music, that could go to be in the moment where no other thoughts exist”
