An Interview with Pro Boxer & CEO Mike Rashid
Loved having my man Mike Rashid stop by and chat. We spent some time on ideas behind building an audience - why you shouldn't only focus on avenues that have the highest reach, but will have the highest impact. One HUGE point we made here toward the fitness industry was having the self-awarness to not just pedal products for a quick buck. Do you really want to be selling things that you don't believe in to your friends and family? Leaving a legacy is what the goal is here. In everything I do, I want to leave behind a MASSIVE legacy of myself and what I created. Focus on the number of people that will come to your funeral, not on the number in the bank. Give this a listen - let me know what you thought :)

From My Inbox: How A 9 Year Old Overcame Bullying
Thad reached out to me via email, explaining how his daughter, 9 year old Olivia was getting bullied in school. But she didn't just let it happen. After hearing my "For All The Haters" video, she stood up to the bully, and told her teachers, later converting the former bully into a friend and going to her birthday party. I was so touched by this message that I called up Thad and Olivia to talk to them about exactly what of my content inspired Olivia. Thad, Olivia and myself would LOVE if you'd take a listen to this one. It really means the world & please check out "For All The Haters" if you haven't already seen it.

A Keynote: SALT Conference 2017
Everyone is fast forwarding TV ads and clicking away from banner and popup ads. I ate shit when I started Vaynermedia until it grew to what I wanted it to be. The three ways we’re going to consume something - Visual, Audio and Written word. Podcasting and sound is about to blow up. By becoming the media company in their organization and grabbing that industry attention at a level that’s open they will win. Start focusing on where the attention is cheapest and in the highest volume, and grab it. Hope you enjoyed this talk

Advice To A Young Man That Everyone Should Hear
This chat I have with this young man applied to SO many of you. Make sure you really, REALLY listen in here because this one gets deep. When you're grinding and kicking, make sure you're thinking of why you're really there. Do things with the intent of people showing up to you funeral, rather than filling your bank account. Trust me here, the bank account will come. This is one of my most insightful pieces of content, so please please give it a listen; I'd be so humbled. Let me know what you think about it and hit me up on Twitter.

An Interview with YAHOO On the Status Of the American Dream and Entrepreneurship
It was great talking with Yahoo about my ideas and past. We chatted about my thoughts on what the status of the American dream is today - Everyone is a founder and entrepreneur these days, and that means a lot in the world of investments. Being an entrepreneur is more than just throwing it in your social media profiles, and there's some really important points here around both entrepreneurship and some current trends I'm noticing (hint hint, VR). Hope you enjoy! DM me and let me know your thoughts ;)
