This podcast episode was recorded over a year ago. As creatives, musicians, advocates...humans...who have wrestled with their own mental health, Sydney Guerrette and Josiah Johnson have a conversation about the importance of listening and storytelling. (It was the first episode Sydney recorded since putting a pause on the podcast back in fall of 2022. Now, four episodes into this next chapter, and what's addressed is STILL applicable.) Throughout this episode, it's apparent that Johnson is an incredibly compassionate and transparent person who cares deeply for humanity. Johnson, who many people know from the band, The Head And The Heart, chats with Sydney about how his personal mental health journey influences his music, his openness about his struggles with addiction, and navigating the intersection of art and vulnerability.
