Founding drummer of MAROON 5 (Songs About Jane), Ryan Dusick, joins us on this very special episode of The Open Relationships Podcast. Ryan talks about the formation of Maroon 5, getting dropped by their record label, their slingshot to success with one of the most famous pop albums of all time, and eventually how he was forced to leave the band due to mental and physical issues. This is an unbelievably emotional, inspirational, and heartwarming story of how Ryan was able to go from top of the world, to rock bottom, and how he turned his life around to become a very successful therapist and mental health advocate.
