    In this from-the-road episode, I'm checking in from Arlington, Virginia, to share five game-changing mindset hacks for musicians navigating the highs, lows, and long roads of touring life. Whether you’re a drummer, bassist or engineer, these tips are designed to sharpen your craft, protect your peace, and build lasting connections in the live music world.

    From the power of getting 1% better every day to the importance of networking and mental clarity, this episode goes into the practical and emotional tools every musician should pack before they hit the road...and even the stuff you should leave behind. With stories from personal experience (yes, including a roadside breakdown), this is the pep talk you didn’t know you needed before your next gig.

    What you’ll learn:

    - Daily growth as a musician.

    - Networking and building relationships on tour.

    EPISODE 85: Mixed Media Series | Are You Still Having Fun? When to Push Through vs. Pull Back

    In this very honest and unscripted episode of The Rhythm of the Road Podcast, Nell and I go over the subtle signs it’s time to step back, and how to find your way back to fun. We reflect on real-life entrepreneurial lows, what it takes to pull out of a project, cancel a meeting, and we even challenge the idea that pushing through is always the answer.

    We also go into what it means to honor your energy, set boundaries, and reevaluate your creative path, while still keeping your sense of humor intact. Whether you're a freelancer, founder, or full-time creator, this one’s for you if you've ever asked yourself: “Am I still having fun?” We even question if having too much fun is really a thing!

    Enjoy this episode and the rest of the Mixed Media Series on the "5's" here on The Rhythm of the Road Podcast!

    What you’ll learn:

    - Knowing when it’s time to take a break, or move on.

    - The difference between canceling and rescheduling - intent!

    - How intuition guides creative decisions.

    - Navigating burnout and overcommitment.

    - Why narrowing your focus can be a sign of growth, especially as a creative.

  • EPISODE 84: Write From the Heart | Douglas Ray Jaffe on Music, Meaning & Staying the Course
    May 20 2025
    EPISODE 84: Write From the Heart | Douglas Ray Jaffe on Music, Meaning & Staying the Course In today's episode, I'm excited to be here with Douglas Ray Jaffe, musician, poet, and modern-day philosopher and reflect on what it really means to create from the soul in a world obsessed with virality. I'm asking all the questions starting with the foundations of Douglas’s creative process, his views on timeless literature, and his mission to blend deep lyrical meaning with modern sound. From Bob Dylan to ancient sages, he pulls from a broad spectrum of influence to create music that resonates beyond the moment. Douglas also opens up about his life outside music, including his journey as a scrap metal broker, and how discipline, patience, and purpose drive both his art and entrepreneurship. Whether you're a creative just starting down your road or a seasoned business owner, Douglas’s views on staying the course, embracing failure, and writing from the heart will leave you inspired to take the next step in your own journey. What you’ll learn: - Songwriting from the soul vs. a formula. - The spiritual and emotional side of creativity. - The power of discipline, consistency, and daily practice. Key Moments 1:18 - Douglas shares his songwriting philosophy 9:10 - The power of connection through songwriting 11:55 - Collaborating across genres and generations 19:35 - Why contentment is greater than happiness in creative work Favorite Quote “A tear is a definition of truth. To get to the truth, you’re going to have to cry a few tears—and there’s nothing shameful about that.” - Douglas Connect with Douglas Douglas Ray Jaffe is an author, poet, and modern-day philosopher whose words challenge conventional thinking and offer profound insights into the human experience. His work delves deep into themes of existence, consciousness, and the intricate connections that bind us all. His book, “Who Is Douglas Ray? Lyrics, Writings, and Poems,” is available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Who-Douglas-Ray-Lyrics-Writings/dp/B08QLMR2WD His musings were recognized by a friend for their poetry and lyrical possibilities. Douglas Ray Jaffe teamed up with award-winning producer Craig Brandwein to set his lyrics and musings to music. The Douglas Ray Jaffe Project is an expansive undertaking. It is a collaborative project, seeking musicians and voices that fit each song and its sensibilities, regardless of genre. In the spirit of groups like Broken Social Scene, Animal Collective, The Six One Five Collective, and Moonsville Collective, The Douglas Ray Jaffe project is an experiment as a musical collective. Three songs have already been released: “Gullability” “For Rachel” “One More” The EP is called NO BOUNDS and is available on Spotify and more. Each song is a distinctly different treatment.
