In this episode of the Headliner Mindset Podcast, Rave Jesus joins the show for an expansive, honest conversation about faith, creativity, and the deeper spiritual current running through dance music culture.

The discussion traces Rave Jesus’ journey from touring internationally and releasing music on major labels to following an unexpected calling that reshaped both his career and identity. Rather than stepping away from rave culture, the conversation explores how electronic music, community, and worship intersect — and why those worlds aren’t as separate as they’re often made out to be.

Topics include:

• The spiritual hunger behind rave culture and dance music
• Creativity as a form of listening, intuition, and surrender
• Letting go of control, ego, and industry expectations
• Faith, worship, and authenticity in electronic music
• Why silence, stillness, and trust are essential for creative flow

The episode also dives into the realities of success, burnout, and reinvention — and how following a deeper calling can lead to a more aligned and sustainable creative life.

In this episode of the Headliner Mindset Podcast, I sit down with one of my coaching clients NIMDA for a raw, honest conversation about the realities of building a career in heavy music.

We talk about touring burnout, creative pressure, comparison, and what it actually takes to stay mentally healthy while flying nonstop, staying up all night making music, and performing at a high level.

NMDA opens up about:

• Burnout from touring and constant travel
• The pressure of making new music for every set
• Staying disciplined without burning out
• Letting go of comparison and worst-case thinking
• Why great music and a strong brand matter more than going viral

This episode is for artists who love what they do — but are feeling the weight of it.

If you’re chasing the dream and trying not to lose yourself in the process, this conversation will hit home.

In this episode of the Headliner Mindset Podcast, I sit down with Modestep for an honest conversation about what it really takes to last in the music industry.

We talk about the parts of the artist journey that don’t make it onto social media — burnout, mental health, physical wear and tear from touring, and the pressure to keep showing up even when you’re struggling.

Josh shares real insight on:

• Why going viral doesn’t equal selling tickets
• The difference between online hype and real fans
• DJ culture vs live band performance
• The realities of touring, injuries, and burnout
• How AI is changing music — and where artists should be cautious
