Join us as we dive into the complexities of trusting our hearts and the potential pitfalls that come with it. Gavin shares personal anecdotes from his upbringing in the 1970s, discussing the music that shaped his youth and how the mantra of following your heart has permeated our culture—from Disney movies to graduation speeches.
