Putting Purpose To Pain
When Josh was a kid he had lot of anger and confusion from growing up with a father who was addicted to drugs. He liked to hit things to release anger and learned very quickly that the drum was one of the few things that he could hit and be productive, not destructive. Josh’s drum has always been a place where he could escape into a world where the limitations of words don’t exist.
This was true when his grandfather, who was always a reliable role model and supporter, was at the end of his life. As he lay in his hospital bed, Josh brought in one of his drums to play when words were no longer the best way for him to communicate. The drum helped Josh process his grief.
People at the hospital began to ask him to play for them and their ailing relatives and Josh realized that his grandfather, in his final days, was guiding him to what he considers his most important work.
“I love sharing the tools that have helped me navigate this human experience with others in need of a voice, or vehicle, for healthy self-expression.”
