Johnny Reyes: From Party Scene to Sound Healing Innovator
There's something that's fundamentally wrong for sure, and it's interesting that you bring up the whole subtractive aspect, because in music, when people are asking how to produce music- and one of the biggest things that I tell them- and this is applicable to a lot of things in life- is, it's not about adding more things you can be like.
Imagine starting your journey in the wild rave scenes of San Francisco, only to find yourself spiraling into addiction and despair. That's the story of Johnny Reyes, a music producer and DJ who began his career at just 14. In this episode of 'The Art of Lost & Found', host Brooke Estin sits down with Johnny to uncover his tumultuous path from Hollywood hedonism to becoming a sound healing entrepreneur.
Johnny opens up about his darkest moments, including battling addiction and even facing a suicide attempt. His road to recovery wasn't easy, but it was transformative. Through rehab and self-discovery, Johnny learned to channel his creativity in healthier ways. Today, he's not only a successful artist but also a co-founder of I AM Retreats, a company that uses sound-science for wellness.
His story is a testament to the power of self-love and the incredible impact of sound and vibration in healing. Whether you're struggling with your own demons or just looking for inspiration, Johnny's journey offers valuable lessons on resilience, creativity, and personal growth.
