It’s time to connect with your inner rockstar!

 

Chris Chaney has been a professional musician for his entire career, so saying he’s lived an interesting life is an understatement. This week, I speak to Chris about his career as the bass player for Jane’s Addiction and how he connects with his own inner happiness. 

 

He takes us through the highs and lows of his life, from severe burnout to working with household name celebrities. Through his deep inner wisdom and unique perspective, we learn why it’s important to do what we love while taking care of ourselves at the same time. 

 

Key Topics/Takeaways:

  • What a true artist is.
  • Why doing what you love is the most important thing.
  • How to cope when you feel hopeless.
  • The importance of self-care.
  • Why successful people are still unhappy.
  • Dropping your lack mentality.
  • Advice for aspiring professional musicians.
