Jaimes joins me today to discuss love, connection, and reconciling family lore and the stories we make up. He describes how his perception of his father changed after meeting him. He explains how he met and befriended the jazz singer, Nancy Wilson, and how he discovered that much of the magic in his life stems from his dad. Jaimes also reveals his superpowers and underscores how he’s learning to stay grounded in the present.
