This week on I Need a Friend, I sit down with Julian—a stranger I met on Threads who quickly became a friend. We chat about his journey into music later in life, the healing power it’s had on his mental health, and how it helped him reconnect with his dad and family.
Julian also shares about his own podcast, Loves Music, and his refreshing take on staying true to your authentic self. One of my favorite moments? When he talked about how life happens in seasons—a reminder to lean into wherever you are right now.
If you’re loving the podcast so far, please share it with friends and family. You never know who might need to hear these stories.
