I really connected with Jaimes on this episode. His story — from quietly singing at school and being encouraged by a friend, to now working with Garrix, Tiësto, and Armin van Buuren — is proof that the smallest moments can change your life. What really stood out was how much we both value the songwriting process: sitting down, talking about life, and letting music flow from real conversation. That’s exactly why I started this podcast, and this episode is a perfect reflection of that energy!

The song we made "The Minute You Go" comes out Friday July 25th, listen here:
