54: "Life's a Beach" w/ Brian Markle & Kitty

Today’s episode is one of those conversations that reminds you why music matters in the first place.

I’m sitting down with musician and Life’s a Beach Music Festival organizer, Brian Markle — and this isn’t just a conversation about stages, sound systems, or lineups.

This is a conversation about being an emotional human in a world that doesn’t always make space for that.

Brian opens up about how tragedy shaped him — not in a way that hardened him, but in a way that deepened him. We talk about what it means to feel things fully… to turn pain into impact… and to create something meaningful for other people because of what you’ve lived through.

Because Life’s a Beach isn’t just a festival — it’s an experience. It’s connection. It’s healing. It’s that moment in the crowd when the music hits and you realize you’re not alone in what you’ve carried.
