John describes his incredible journey from growing up in a small town near Houston to becoming a sought-after international opera singer soon to be making his Metropolitan Opera debut. He offers many uplifting life lessons along the way, including how to deal with fear and how to celebrate one’s own uniqueness and true self in the face of enormous pressure to succeed. John shares how growing up in a gospel choir aids his process as a classical and pop singer, and lets us in on some of the sage advice he got from John Legend.
