Summary
Creative, spiritual and generational energy is weaved throughout all of what Salvador Santana, our special guest, creates. He is an entrepreneur, renowned producer, songwriter, and musician who has attained global acclaim for founding multiple bands and headlining events. Coming from a long family line of musical innovators, he is the son of the legendary ten-time Grammy winning guitarist, Carlos Santana. Salvador is also the founder of VAYA, a socially-conscious lifestyle cannabis brand.
In this episode, Lee and Salvador talk about the ways his family history and lineage have influenced how he embodies authenticity, passion, and work ethic as a musician and leader. He shares the spiritual experience of being on stage and his belief that music can awaken our own inner connection. Salvador believes there is a tempo, rhythm, and energy in everything - that we are here to make spiritual traction. They discuss the reality of running a company in an ever-changing industry and his intention to bring more social equity and community advocacy initiatives by helping to rearrange the narrative and criminalization of cannabis. "Relax, believe, enjoy." Salvador shares these wise words offered by a friend and how that continues to impact him in all aspects of his life.
