My name is Julian Gavilanes. I am an actor, filmmaker and now podcaster in NYC, who has an ever-growing fascination with the artists journey. Furthermore, how they've uniquely managed to stick with it through all the inevitable adversity that seems to be a prerequisite for getting to where they want to go.
Many artistic people will say, "you have to be delusional just to believe you even can." And this show attempts to explore how some of my favorite artists in the world learned to cross over from just believing that they could do this, to actually executing these "impossible" aspirations.
Ideally, through these conversations we will impart some level of valuable insight for all of us who are struggling to keep pushing the rock up the hill. Attempt to find the best skills for prioritizing self-care inside and keeping positivity at the forefront of their hearts. Because at the end of the day, no matter what level you reach--it doesn't get and easier. It just gets different. But the good news is, you're not alone. And you're far from inadequate. So, enjoy the talks and stay inspired!

Brandon Ghorley is a singer, songwriter, keys player extraordinaire and band leader (The BGP, Timeshare) from the Pacific Northwest. Brandon sits down with Julian to discuss their 20 year friendship. How he found his voice in music at a young age and developed his character from within it. Julian had a lot of question about faith, and as a man of god, Brandon opened up to about his experience with the church, how music has become a strong component of his spiritually and how there's no playbook for accepting faith into your life, because it just has to be a daily choice. Brandon also opens up about the darker side of his seemingly joy-filled lifestyle by addressing all the fears of inadequacy he goes through on a regular basis. How he combats the voice in his head that tells him he's not done enough yet, and how he looks to his faith to remember that he's on the right path. And that everything he wants is coming his way. They also share a very special song that they produced and sent to Rob Dyrdek when he was producing his biographical children's cartoon, "Wild Grinders." And the song is STILL a banger! Brandon's new Single "Handful" with his band, Timeshare just came out, and I implore you to BLAST it while we still have these dog days of summer! And don't forget to speak good things into your life this week. Brandon says so!
