"I ALMOST QUIT DJING": Bijou's Brutal Career Reset | EF EP 115

Most artists think talent is enough. Bijou proves that discipline is what separates the successful from the struggling. After 13 years of building his career around G-House, he hit a wall - he hated his music, hated touring, and wanted to quit everything.

Instead of giving up, he rebuilt his entire approach to artistry. We're talking 13 years of sobriety, 6 AM wake-ups even while touring, cold plunges, meditation, and meal prep routines that most people think are impossible for a DJ lifestyle.

The result? Fisher is now playing his tracks in Ibiza, he's signed to Catch & Release, and his Mind Eraser tour is selling out venues across the country. This isn't just a comeback story - it's a blueprint for what happens when you treat your body and mind as seriously as your music.

Key Takeaways:

• Why getting comfortable in your career is the most dangerous place to be

• How 13 years of sobriety unlocked his true creative potential

• The morning routine that gives him 3 hours of distraction-free time daily

• Why he switched from G-House after years of success and how he navigated the transition

• The psychology behind why fans stick with artists through genre changes

• How meal prep and fitness routines directly impact studio productivity

• The mindset shift that turned career crisis into creative breakthrough

• How building genuine fan connections creates loyalty beyond any single sound

• Why discipline, not talent, determines long-term success in music

Stop making excuses about your schedule. If a touring DJ can wake up at 6 AM, meal prep, and maintain strict routines while traveling the world, you can build better habits too. Hit play now to learn how discipline became Bijou's secret weapon.
