Description

In this heartfelt episode of EZ Conversations, host Furkhan Dandia sits down with a special guest, Jordan Larocque, for a candid discussion on the intersection of music, mental health, and its profound impact on Jordan's life. The duo, who share a unique connection from their high school days, embark on a nostalgic journey through the corridors of their past.
However, the episode takes a poignant turn as Jordan and Furkhan delve into the challenges that come with pursuing a passion in the music industry. Jordan bravely shares how the highs and lows of his journey affected his mental health, providing listeners with a raw and honest look into the struggles behind the scenes. The discussion sheds light on the often-overlooked emotional toll that pursuing one's dreams can have.
 Jordan was a member of a Francophone Indie Pop band, Bonjour Brumaire. Jordan toured for many years and performed live at a lot of shows. With time, Jordan started to realize he was missing out on time with friends and family, everyone was moving ahead in life and Jordan felt stuck Being away all the time and not having a stable life started to impact Jordan's mental health. Ultimately, Jordan left the band and decided to focus on his career. Today, Jordan is happily married and the proud father of a little boy. I hope you can get as much as I did from this podcast and understand that even musicians and other artists struggle with mental health; fame and glory only go so far. 
Join EZ Conversations for an intimate and soulful exploration of Jordan Larocque's musical evolution, intertwined with the delicate nuances of mental health. This episode is not just a conversation between friends; it's a profound reflection on the healing power of music and the importance of understanding the human behind the artist.
