Brad Gardner - Music Producer for Netflix and Broadway Pianist

In today’s episode, Laura and Todd sit down with Brad Gardner, professional pianist, Broadway musician and currently a Music Producer for Netflix, to talk about manifesting his way to Broadway, the trauma of growing up gay in a Southern Baptist school from K-12 and overcoming spiritual abuse. We explore Brad’s journey within music and entertainment, what drove him to change jobs and move cross-country and experiencing the world outside the “worldview” of his Southern Baptist school. We also get in to the impacts his upbringing and education had on his mental health, how he’s managed to overcome the “brainwashing,” and feel comfortable in his own skin. We definitely left this convo with a whole new perspective and it’s not one you want to miss!
