As artists and professionals, it's our obligation to enact our own internal revolution.
What happens when a rock star decides to get sober? In this episode of The Unruffled Podcast, hosts Tammi Salas and Sondra Primeaux chat with Daniel Blue, the singer and lyricist of Seattle folk/rock band Motopony. Daniel has worn many creative hats—fashion designer, graphic designer, painter, director, actor, and poet. Now, he shares his journey to sobriety and how he navigates life without alcohol while staying true to his artistic roots.
The conversation kicks off with how Tammi and Daniel first met and quickly dives into the nitty-gritty of his path to sobriety. Daniel opens up about the struggles and triumphs he's faced, shedding light on what it’s like to be a sober musician in a world where excess is often the norm.
He also shares three key practices from his 'Unruffled Toolbox' that help him stay grounded: starting his day with a bow and release of his will, engaging in morning pages, and setting aside time for spiritual connection and community support. These rituals not only keep him sober but also fuel his creativity. If you're curious about how creativity can thrive in sobriety or looking for inspiration from someone who's walked the walk, this episode is a must-listen.
Daniel's story is a testament to the power of honesty, vulnerability, and community in recovery. So, tune in and discover how one artist fills the void left by addiction with meaningful, creative pursuits.
