Ryan Dusick (Founding Drummer of Maroon 5)
We’re excited to have Ryan Dusick on the show. Ryan’s the former drummer and was a founding member of the band Maroon 5, one of the most popular groups in the world. Dusick was even part of the band that preceded Maroon 5, Kara’s Flowers, which he and Adam Levine, Jesse Carmichael, and Mickey Madden founded in 1994, while they were still in high school.
Today, Ryan’s an Associate Marriage & Family Therapist, a mental health professional focusing on anxiety and sobriety. He’s also a published author with a new book out now titled Harder to Breathe: A Memoir of Making Maroon 5, Losing It All, and Finding Recovery. Ryan works at The Missing Peace Center for Anxiety in Agoura Hills, CA, where he’s spreading the message that recovery is possible. We’re thrilled to have him on the show today, and we hope his message has a positive impact on each of you who are listening.
