The Songs That Get Us Through Life

Sometimes a song is just a song. And sometimes one line hits you at exactly the right time and sticks with you for years.

In this episode of Big Man Big Problems, Julio brings Yvette back for something a little lighter: comparing the songs they find most inspirational and the lyrics that have stayed with them. Pasted markdown

They get into everything from “The Climb” and “Let It Be” to “Unwritten,” “Man in the Mirror,” “Rise Up,” “This Is Me,” and a few musicals along the way. Some of the choices are funny, some get unexpectedly personal, and a few hit way harder than either of them expected.

Julio talks about why “Man in the Mirror” became especially meaningful as he was leaving for California to begin a life-changing chapter, and why the message of making the change yourself still sticks with him today. Pasted markdown

The conversation also takes a more personal turn when The Sound of Music brings up memories of Julio’s mom and why something he once loved has become difficult for him to watch since losing her. Pasted markdown

And of course, Julio ends with the song that may sum him up better than any other: “Don’t Worry, Be Happy.” Because life can be hard, messy, scary, and unfair, but happiness is still something worth choosing when you can. Pasted markdown

This one is lighter, funnier, a little nostalgic, and proof that Big Man Big Problems doesn’t always have to be heavy.
