We had the good fortune of connecting with Hesh Donnerstag and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Hesh, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
The most important factor behind my success is self-care. Yoga, meditation, learning and breathing have made me a unstoppable force as a creative.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I have been surrounded by music since I was a child. It’s always been an escape for me. In the music industry I have been bullied, hated on and shut out for years. It was my undying spirit, character and firm commitment that has taken me to where I am.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I live part time on the Mexican Riviera so anywhere you go it’s amazing. Whether it’s the jungle or the beach or an underground cenote you can’t help to be in awe of the creation here.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Yogi Bhajan has given me the keys to the universe.
