Description

From the chaos of the late '90s nu metal scene to the quiet clarity of meditation in Joshua Tree, Wes Geer has lived through extremes most of us only read about. As a founding member of Hed PE and later guitarist for Korn, Wes was immersed in the excess of rock stardom. But his real story begins when it all fell apart.

 

In this episode, Wes opens up about the breaking point that pushed him into recovery and how that path led to founding Rock to Recovery, a nonprofit that uses music as medicine for people battling addiction, trauma, and even wounded warriors. We talk about core wounds, spiritual awakenings, plant medicine, the role of creativity in healing, and why the darkest chapters often hold the keys to transformation.
