Hello, world.

Welcome to discover your talent, do what you love.

I'm your host, Don Hutchison.

Every Tuesday, I interview someone from around the world who's discovered their talents to do work they love to create a life of success, satisfaction, and freedom. On Fridays, I interview an individual with many years of experience from one of the most popular or interesting occupations or professions who shares an insider's look at what it's really like to do what they do.

I'm delighted to bring you our featured guest, Jack Stafford. Welcome, Jack. Hello, Don.

It's good to have you on the show. Jack, are you using your talents doing work that you love?

I am. All righty. Well, we're certainly going to dig into that whole story.

Jack Stafford is a singer-songwriter on a mission to serve others and help people overcome the materialistic message that's distorting modern society.

His new album, Deeper, is a series of self-help songs that will help people get perspective on the current crises plaguing our world.

The songs are inspired by his own life experiences and mental struggles.

He lives in southern Italy, and when he's not making music, he's practicing yoga, teaching meditation, gardening, cycling, or studying metaphysics.

Well, Jack, that's an amazing career path here on.

We want to hear much more about it.

Give us a background right now of what you're working on in the present time.

Just a few minutes on that before we get into the backstory.

Sure.

Well, we're in lockdown here in Italy, so I'm quite limited because I was a musician,

you know, I had a traveling musician before I play the couch concerts in people's homes,

but with the coronavirus, it would have stopped to everything. And I was doing some podcasts

interviews to promote my last album Deeper, which is about meditation

and taming the wild, conscious mind. And I was really enjoying these podcasts and speaking

to people like yourself. So I decided to start my own podcast and how to use my own talents.
