In this episode of The Curiosity Club, we sit down with Daxton Bush — a Division I lacrosse player who, on the outside, seemed to have everything: a full-ride scholarship, a fraternity, athletic success, and the picture-perfect college life. But behind the highlight reel was a different reality. Daxton opens up about the quiet feeling he couldn’t shake — the sense that none of it truly fulfilled him.

He shares how he navigated injuries, pressure, and expectations, and how he ultimately found the courage to walk away from the identity he’d spent his whole life building. We talk about the uncomfortable process of letting go, the discipline required to rebuild yourself from scratch, and the surprising pull that music had on him long before he admitted it.

Now preparing to record in Nashville and step fully into a new creative chapter, Daxton reflects on authenticity, accountability, and what it really takes to trade a “perfect on paper” life for one that actually feels right.
