In this powerful episode of The Running Bear Podcast, we sit down with professional guitarist Mozart, a musician whose life defies all odds. From fleeing war-torn Iraq as a child to becoming a sponsored athlete by Red Bull, a world-touring rockstar, and even holding the very guitar gifted by Metallica’s James Hetfield—Mozart's journey is a testament to resilience, manifestation, and the universal language of music.

✨ In This Episode:
– War as a disruptor of rhythm — How trauma rewires the body (and how to rewire it back)
– Music as nervous system medicine — Why sound heals deeper than words
– The refugee’s paradox — Displacement as both wound and superpower
– From Metallica to medical aromatherapy — How Mo’s father’s healing legacy shaped his path
– Laughter as medicine— How humor becomes survival in the darkest times

If you’ve ever felt "out of sync" with peace, belonging, or purpose—this conversation is your tuning fork.
