Grief is a very difficult life event to navigate. And sometimes the end of life is not the end of the journey and story. 

This is exactly what songwriter, Saint PHNX lead singer, and philanthropist Stevie Jukes and I discuss in this episode. 

We discuss the impact of music on mental health, the journey of creating the Happy Place Workshop after the loss of Stevie and Al's father, Bert, and the importance of using music as a tool for healing and resilience. 

Stevie also shares insights on their upcoming world tour, the success of their music, and the philanthropic efforts that have emerged from their experiences. 

  • Who should watch/listen: Music enthusiasts, educators, and anyone interested in the transformative power of music and storytelling.
  • Your transformation: How personal grief can be channelled into a powerful movement that supports mental health and well-being.
  • By not watching/listening: You'll miss out on an inspiring story of how music can be a catalyst for healing and community building.

Key takeaways:

  • Music can help children (and adults) talk about emotions and resilience.
  • The grieving process can lead to unexpected growth and opportunities.
  • The band is focused on using their platform for good.
  • There is real power in vulnerability, community support, and the ongoing journey of personal and professional growth.
  • Positive affirmations can foster a hopeful mindset.
