A proposito di questo titolo

Welcome back to The Jazz Flyte Podcast. On this episode, I’m joined by guitarist Deepak Thettu, an artist whose journey proves that musicians are often much more than what we see on stage. Deepak is not only a smooth jazz guitarist, but also a longtime occupational therapist, and this conversation explores how those two worlds connect in powerful and unexpected ways.

We start with his early relationship with music, growing up in the guitar-driven soundscape of the 1980s, watching MTV, and being surrounded by musician friends. After a high school injury shifted his path, the guitar became more than a hobby, eventually leading him from New York to Hollywood and the Musicians Institute. That move would become life-changing, especially through his mentorship with Norman Brown, long before the rest of the world knew his name.

Deepak shares how studying music seriously reshaped the way he listens, practices, and feels groove, and why consistency, patience, and touch matter more than speed or flash. We talk about how rhythm and feel must live in your body, not just your fingers, and why learning slowly is often the fastest way forward.

The conversation then shifts into his work as an occupational therapist, where music quietly plays a role in how he connects with children, helps them regulate, and supports their ability to function in everyday life. Deepak opens up about balancing a demanding day job with a growing music career, managing time, family, and creative energy, and why playing live music has become a form of release and healing.

This episode is about discipline without burnout, passion without ego, and honoring all the parts of who you are. If you’ve ever wondered how music, purpose, and service can coexist, this conversation will resonate deeply.
