Description

In this episode, we sit down with Grammy-winning singer/songwriter Chad King, one half of the hit-making duo, A Great Big World. While millions know him for the global anthem "Say Something," few realize that Chad's journey to the stage has been defined by a quiet, parallel battle with Multiple Sclerosis. Chad opens up about the day his world changed with an MS diagnosis and how he transformed fear into a catalyst for intentional living. We dive into the physical realities of touring with a chronic illness—from the specific accommodations he makes to protect his voice and energy to the ways he's adapted his performance style. Above all, his legendary optimism shines through as he discusses why he believes a diagnosis doesn't have to be an ending, but a new way to sing. Chad shares the physical symptoms he first noticed and why he urges everyone—no matter how busy their career—to stop ignoring the "small" things before they become big problems. It is a conversation filled with kindness, humor, and infectious positivity – a vital reminder that your health is your most important instrument. This episode is a masterclass in resilience, kindness and finding joy in every moment! Also – Don't miss Chad's most personal work in his new solo EP—a project born directly from the pages of his private journals!
