S1E3 - Short Term Pains = Long Term Gains With Ben Anderson

When Ben Anderson was in elementary school, he dabbled into music by playing the alto saxophone. He went so far as to learn how to read music and practice as much as he could. It wasn't until one day in junior high school that Ben had experienced his friend playing the drums and that was the moment Ben was bitten by the percussion bug. Shortly thereafter, he would go back home and beg his parents to buy him a drum kit so he could play. As any skeptical parent would be, they made a soft-pass on the drum kit, but bought Ben his first set of sticks and drum pad in an effort to see how serious he was about playing the drums. After about a year, Ben would finally prove that he was serious enough to play and soon, he got his first makeshift drum kit. Today, Ben is playing drums for the high-intensity band, Nothing More, and is fulfilling his dream of playing at festivals and arenas around the world. But playing at these venues didn't come easy. In this episode, Ben will explain how his dedication to yourself can be a reality for just about anyone who is looking to fulfill their dreams. He also describes why making experiences unique in meet-and-greet events is a lost art for most people in the world today. He finds that this is one of the most important aspects of developing long-time fans. We also continue our conversation with Shannon Phillips and discuss the foods that are aggravating your stomach which have a side effect to other issues you might be experiencing. She doesn't make a case for the reason gluten is bad, but breaks down what gluten does to your body and why it is one of the issues so many people have when it comes to their medical conditions.
