In this episode, I sit with Dr. Deen Anbar to talk about what it means to show up — both in music and in life. We get into the art of being a supportive bandmate, knowing when to lead vs. when to step back, and how to create without trying to prove anything.

We also discuss his path through academia as a musician, the importance of choosing what genuinely brings joy, building better habits, and his journey with sobriety.

This conversation is about presence, intention, and listening deeply — to yourself and to others.
