Ian Brennan: From Psychiatric Facilities to Grammy Wins and Social Change

I think that the basic default you to try to purify yourself of ambivalence. Choose to have a relationship with somebody and then the focus should be on what is happening versus who it's happening to.
Ever wondered how a Grammy-winning music producer also becomes a specialist in violence prevention? Ian Brennan’s story is as multifaceted as it gets. In this episode of 'This Life #YOULIVE with Dr. Drew', Brennan shares his incredible journey, starting from his early days working in psychiatric facilities to becoming a renowned figure in conflict resolution. Brennan believes that social work and music are deeply intertwined, and he’s got the experience to back it up.
His insights into the impact of technology on family dynamics and the importance of addressing implicit biases are both eye-opening and thought-provoking. Brennan’s work with the Zomba Prison Project, which brought music from a Malawian prison to the world stage, underscores his commitment to social change through creative expression. He also delves into the significance of language and culture in resolving conflicts.
The episode wraps up with a powerful message: focus on actions rather than individuals to bring about real change. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that bridges the worlds of music, social work, and personal growth.
