Sound, Silence & Spirituality w/ Adrian Freedman #20

In this episode, I sit down with Adrian Friedman once more — for a heartfelt conversation about the transformative power of music. What unfolds is a beautiful, honest exploration of how music can be a portal — for healing, for connection, and for remembering who we are.

Adrian shares his journey from conventional music-making into a more spiritual and intuitive path, one deeply rooted in ritual, presence, and ancestral wisdom. We talk about his latest album, Thousand Petals, a deeply collaborative and intentional creation that draws from various musical traditions to offer listeners a kind of sonic sanctuary — something to rest into, reflect with, and heal through.

Together, we explore the power of silence as a teacher, the sacredness of deep listening, and the importance of music as a communal act — not just something to consume, but something to participate in. Adrian speaks beautifully about how grief, joy, and the full spectrum of human emotion can move through us with music as a guide.

We touch on how ancient traditions still speak through sound, how music bridges the seen and unseen worlds, and how the act of receiving a song can be a spiritual journey in itself. Adrian shares how collective music-making fosters unity and helps us listen—not just with our ears, but with our whole beings.
