Nick Potvin has spent years exploring the intersection of sound and the nervous system. His work taps into how music can regulate, express, and even co-regulate when our minds are spiraling.

In this conversation, we dive into the science, the soul, and the stories behind music and mental health, what it means to create through dysregulation, how memory lives in melody, and why some songs just hit when nothing else does.

You’ve stumbled upon one of our deep dive episodes where each month we take a closer look at a song that has had an impact on mental health either for the artist themselves, or as a listener.

This month we’re sitting with Curtains—a track off Ed Sheeran’s Subtract album that doesn’t just speak to sadness, but to something even more honest: the slow, confusing, uneven process of healing.

Our guest this week, Randy Ojeda, gets it. As a music lawyer he’s made a career out of turning feeling into sound. Whether it's through lyrics, melody, or the vulnerability of live performance, Randy helps artists tap into something real, something that makes the rest of us feel a little less alone.
