On this episode of Diving In we’re joined by Oscar winning and Grammy nominated musician and composer, Jon Batiste. Known for his work as bandleader on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and composer on the Pixar movie “Soul”, Jon has a powerful connection to his creative expression and sense of originality. Jon shares his journey from New Orleans to New York City, discovering music as his super power, navigating the waters of the music business and finding his true authentic voice. We touch upon art as a spiritual power, something that can’t be forced, and how his creation of music is for the feeling in the moment, not for the accolades. 

We also Dive In on
  • The art of slowing down amidst a busy schedule 
  • Developing boundaries when work is also a lifestyle 
  • Importance of health and wellness above work output 
  • Finding your creative purpose
