The Jerod Wessler Podcast

I am a singer, songwriter, guitar player, music producer, author, meditation facilitator, prayer warrior and my friends occasionally accuse me of being a spiritual teacher... This podcast is about wherever The Muse takes me and whatever I find interesting.

Depression is not who you are. It is weather.
When it hits, go to ground.
Where do you find shelter when life gets hard?

Choose Love | Daily #1

Gratitude is not an attitude.
It’s directions to where joy is found.

Take 30 seconds today.
Ask yourself:
What have I been grateful for recently?
What did my body show me in that moment?
Did I move closer or further from joy?

We don’t always need answers.
But we can keep asking better questions.
That’s what it means to choose love.

Am I the only one who does this with music?
I start living inside the emotions of the writer.

I imagine what they were feeling, who they were, what they’d been through.
Maybe I’ve always been preparing to write songs like that myself.

Does this happen to you too?
Let me know.

And check out Choose Love this Friday.

Will the fire die?
Will the light be extinguished forever?
I say no.
The light and the fire are the same.
And even when we are surrounded by so much darkness...
The light lives on.

I come from a line of musicians who gave it all up for family.
I did too until everything broke.

Then I told myself:
If I can make music again, this will all be worth it.

That’s my why.

3 years ago today, Will the Sun came out.
I didn’t plan it. I didn’t even write it down.
I just sat down and hit record.

I had been afraid, of being seen, and of not being seen.

But the moment I let go…
Will the Sun got me out of my own way.

Keep creating. You’re not alone.

Two years ago today, I released Rise Up.
I actually wrote it during recovery from my first major brain injury.

At the time, I had just joined Fit For Service and started making friends again.
I got to perform the song on the last day of our Summit…
and the way people responded… it changed me.

Suddenly, all the pain, all the isolation, the struggle to feel human again,
it felt worth it.

During my darkest nights, I used to t...

In this short reflection, Jerod shares a message filmed by the tree, a moment of clarity, framed by the soft instrumental of Choose Love (Demo). Part meditation, part artistic manifesto, this piece reminds us that we shape meaning through creation. That heaven and hell might just be different ways of seeing the same road.

A year ago today, I released In The Room, the last songs recorded in my original studio, inside the home where everything changed.
That home held grief, healing, and the long, hard road of recovery. It was where I survived a traumatic brain injury. Where my kid left home. Where my grandfather passed. And where I fought like hell to keep creating.

This episode is a reflection on the music, the space, the pain, and what it means to...

I’ve always thrived in chaos. As a creative, I could fly by the seat of my pants—no plan, no structure. It felt natural. But over time, I discovered that a little structure, a malleable system, didn’t stifle my creativity—it helped it evolve. It gave me focus. It made room for deeper work.

This short reflection is set beneath the tree, with music from my upcoming track "Choose Love (Demo)."
Wherever you are on your path...

A 30-second reflection for every artist stuck in the mud.

Sometimes the flow doesn’t come easy. Sometimes you have to bleed for it.
But the work you fight through makes you ready for the ones that are given.

Two years ago today, Akal Vol. 2 (Akal to Joy) was released. The roots of this music run deep.

At a spring retreat in Tampa, my friend Sarah invited me to help lead a Grief Ritual. She had taught me the Kundalini practice of Akal. A chant for souls in transition, for those who’ve passed, and those who are coming.

That night, after the ritual, the Akal began soft and mournful. Then the room shifted voices joined, tears flowed, and joy...

    Ruthie's Table 4

    For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
