The Hustle That Moves You

This week, I had to pivot — fast. The Hive pop-up didn’t give me enough long-form conversation, so I tapped into the energy right where I was and sat down with someone who lives and breathes rhythm, grind, and purpose.

Meet Aldarian Mayes — drummer, producer, and touring musician behind some of Houston’s most iconic live performances. From gigging with local bands to hitting stages with artists like Tobe Nwigwe, Aldarian talks about the real moments that shaped his path… the sacrifices, the pivots, and the motivation that keeps him showing up every day.

We dug into:

• What actually pushes you to keep going

• The moments that force you to shift, grow, or break

• Life as a musician behind the scenes

• The discipline needed to create longevity in any craft

• How to stay grounded when life pulls you in every direction

If you’ve ever felt like you were moving on fumes, or needed a sign to keep going — especially if the calling was your passion - then this is it.

This is the conversation about the hustle that moves you, even when life shifts the beat.
