Jordan Chavous
Jordan and I met through one of Joy Ike’s cultivator chats a few months ago. He’s an incredible bassist, and when I heard him talking about how he was considering starting a podcast, I knew I wanted to have him on at some point to talk about it. So here it is!
I really appreciated Jordan’s honesty and transparency, and in listening to the first episode of his new podcast, Convos with Jordan Chavous, I knew we would have a great conversation as well. Be sure to check out his website to find his podcast!
