In this episode, I’m joined by Paul Adamy, a lifelong musician who built a career doing what he loves, without a grand plan - just consistent effort, connection, and deep trust in the process. Through stories from the stage and reflections from life, Paul shares the mindset and habits that helped him turn passion into a path — and stay grounded along the way.

We dive into:

- What it's like to live without a fixed vision — and let life unfold

- How real opportunities often come through relationships

- The quiet discipline behind doing what you love

- His appreciation for a strong, lasting relationship — and what makes it work

- The balance of parenting: guiding vs giving space

This is a calm, thoughtful conversation about creativity, career, connection, and trusting the long game — full of insight for anyone building a life on their own terms.
