This week on Angie Martinez IRL Podcast, one of the best selling Latin artists of all time, J Balvin joins Angie for conversation on spirituality, battling depression, living out his purpose, and finding balance in success. In his life, itβs Jose vs. Balvin. In real life, he lives by the motto βThe day you think you are a star, you stop shiningβ a gem from his mother, the person he is most grateful for in his life. To Balvin, being grateful and loyal are the most important things in life. Their conversation on superpowers reveals that J Balvin has unmatched discipline, finds joy in problem solving, and has a hustler mentality that took him from an independent artist in Colombia to Genesis world book record breaking success. Heβs a dad now and lets us in on how itβs changed him for the better, made him aware of how fears can be generational, and how important it is to stay in good health. Balvin doesn't believe money and fame are not indicators of success, itβs the balance of family, health, mental and inner peace that equal real success.
