Conversation with John Irizarry

This week’s episode is a powerful one. We are honored to welcome musician and songwriter John Irizarry, who shares the deeply personal story behind the album he wrote for his daughter, Izzy, who died by suicide.

💿 The album, This Girl, is a beautifully written tribute—raw, emotional, and full of love. Listening to it gave me goosebumps.

This conversation is about more than music. It’s about grief, healing, and the journey of living after the unimaginable loss of a child. John opens up about how creating this album helped him process his grief—and how music can be a lifeline not only for the artist but for those who listen.

Please join me, Dawn, John Burton and our guest John Irizarry, for this moving and inspiring episode.
