On this episode, my guest is Jure Pukl, a world-class saxophone player, improviser, and a truly brilliant musician. I am really fond of him and I really enjoy his sense of humour.
We also share a couple of similarities: we both come from our hometown, Velenje, and we both moved back to Slovenia after years of living abroad.
This episode is about jazz, improvisation, and he will share his hilarious story about his musical upbringing; you have to hear it to believe it. All the way to enjoying life as it is and embracing what it gives you.
He also used an NFT as artwork on one of his recent albums called Melt.
We will also discuss the experience and the importance when people/teachers doubt in you. It is not nice, of course, BUT! I realised I would not change a ‘not nice experience’ for anything, because it gave me a chance to grow stronger from it, and to realise what I really want and make that even more meaningful.
I think one of the problems today is that society is trying to protect and prevent people from ‘not nice’ experiences (parents trying to remove everything unpleasant in their life, or society with its close to paranoid political correctness). I believe we have to be challenged in order to train our mental resilience. I see it like training a sport, body, or craft as artists for that matter. (Of course, as long as it is not life-threatening.)
How can we ever get stronger or wiser if not through a set of challenges in life?

#5 The calling to be a musician, morning routine and dealing with a nervous breakdown with WOYTEK JUSTYNA | Sound Mind Podcast
In this episode, my guest is Woytek Justyna, a wonderful musician, guitarist, and educator. Currently most active in his band, Woytek Justyna Treeoh!.
Boy, have I enjoyed talking to my guitar brother, with whom I share so many similarities. We covered some topics that I absolutely love, including cold exposure, journaling and a calling to do music. He shared his interesting moments from the past living in Poland, and he even opened up about some of the struggles he faced during his creative path. We also covered topics shared by some of the people we enjoy, such as Prince, Andrew Huberman, Jordan Peterson, David Goggins and even Louis C.K., to name a few.
