Ep. 83 Drum Roll Please ft Frank Zambrano
4d ago00:40:27Tap to summarizeThis episode is brought to you by Green Leaf Mutli Media 🍃https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jAXPi0XICYWelcome back to another special episode of Nothing’s Normal where we get the raw, transparent and open versions of our guest to better understand their path in the present. Today we sat down with Elmsford NY native and Westchester County representative, Frank Zambrano. What started in a small village ended in 39 of the 50 states that are in America. Frank Zambrano started playing the drums at a young age and eventually made a career out of it. Whether playing, teaching and eventually making it all the way to BROADWAY. Being from New York, Broadway plays/musicals play a big part for people starting as children. Some of our favorite movies are transformed into sounds and dances that stick with us forever. Frank’s musical journey has guided him around the world and around some of the world’s top musicians. We also covered Frank’s family life. That played a big part in his development not only as a musician, but laid the foundation for him as a person. The environment plays a big part in how a seed grows. Im sure to say the least, Frank Zambrano not only makes his family proud by being the first and only one to do what he does in his family but also for literally playing to the beat of his own drum. Tune in. There’s a lot to unpack here.Instagram:@countyboy_spanks@nothingsnormalpodcast @greenleafmultimedia @POLYMAFNETWORK @fzambranodrums

Darren started off working at his facility 25 years ago with no intention that 25 years later he would be head of what has become one of the biggest priorities in the world today. During our conversation we dive deep into what “mental health” actually is seeing as it is so cliché and vague in today’s world. We peeled back the layers of what his actual assignment is at his facility as well as how he juggles between the trauma of others and his own personal past struggles. Darren, whose mother passed away when he was 12 years of age has a story from the outside full of pain and potential excuses. Tune in as we get the story from the source himself. Mental health should be all of our priority as society’s needle moves by the second. In a world full of chaos, creating environments of peace for yourself is an absolute necessity. I hope you enjoy.
