00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:08.159
screen going on. So for people
watching who who were like, what is
5
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:10.120
going on? Is that real?
No, it's not really. I know,
6
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.800
it just looks really good. Not
Really, but anyway, I'm having
7
00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:15.719
a lot of fun. Come to
you live from Wilmington, North Carolina,
8
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:20.639
so I'm super search about that.
It's July seventh. It's hottest crap outside
9
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:23.280
and uh, and I know it's
hot where my guest, Kevin Low,
10
00:02:23.439 --> 00:02:27.159
I'm gonna Bring on just a few
minutes. I know it's hot where he's
11
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:30.479
at because he's further south. Um, super excited to bring him on.
12
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:34.919
I was actually with him yesterday we
were recording an episode for his podcast.
13
00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:37.439
So we've got to spend we've spent
a lot of time together this week,
14
00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:40.159
which is pretty amazing. Um,
so I'm excited about that and we're gonna
15
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:45.439
talk about how do you going to
change fearlessly? This is something that I
16
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:47.520
know a lot of people are afraid
of. Maybe they're uncomfortable with like how
17
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:52.599
do I change? And especially as
a content creator, sometimes you just gotta
18
00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:54.840
change the game, like you gotta
go do something else or, you know,
19
00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:59.400
as an entrepreneur or a business owner. Uh, you gotta just get
20
00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:01.479
you getting the old horse behind the
barn and shoot it in the head and
21
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:07.280
move on. So Kevin has done
that a couple of times, big times
22
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.840
in life that I know about.
UH, and we're gonna jump into those
23
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:15.080
stories and and hear a little bit
about his creator journey a little bit about
24
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:17.400
his life. But before we jump
into it, I need you to do
25
00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:22.120
me a couple of favors. One, wherever you're watching at needs to go
26
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:25.919
ahead and hit that follow button or
that subscribe button and drop me a little
27
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:29.599
chat there and let me know you're
watching and say hey, I'm watching,
28
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:31.599
I'm here, Um, and let
me know about that. And then also
29
00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:36.719
head over to ritual motion DOT COM
and check out ritual motion. They are
30
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:39.840
a new sponsor of the show.
We've been collaborating and working behind the scenes
31
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:46.280
for several months now and I'm excited
to go a level deeper with them and
32
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:52.080
they are their unique company. They're
a live streaming platform that kind of is
33
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:57.680
in the middle of like community web
three Creator economy. They're right there and
34
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:00.479
they're working on some killer tools to
how you and I, as creators,
35
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:05.439
monetize Um and then also people who
would listen or watch our show, help
36
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:11.080
them monetize and then also help us
interact. That's the community part of it,
37
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:14.240
which is pretty cool. So one
of the one of the features on
38
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:19.759
ritual motion is you can do a
pre and post networking session with your audience.
39
00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:24.319
So the more people you get to
come over there hang out with you,
40
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:28.439
similar to like clubhouse or twitter spaces. They can join the stage,
41
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:32.439
they can have that conversation and then
after the show you can have an after
42
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:36.399
show and have an after networking thing. So much to like zoom breakout rooms,
43
00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:40.000
but it's all free and you don't
have to get someone, you don't
44
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.879
have to get people to go somewhere
else. You can help them stay there
45
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:46.560
on ritual motion and just jump in
the back room with you, shake hands,
46
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:48.720
have another drink, all that kind
of fun stuff in network. So

87
00:07:20.839 --> 00:07:25.639

really the topic is about going into
88
00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:28.519
change without fear, just kind of
going into it, and I know,
89
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:31.120
Um, from you know following you
around the Internet for the last couple of
90
00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:35.240
years, that you know life has
given you that. I know of a
91
00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:40.680
couple of really big changes, and
the first one was when you're seventeen years
92
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:44.120
old, you went into surgery being
able to see the world around you.
93
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:47.000
You came out of surgery not being
able to do that. And so to
94
00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:50.480
kind of lead into and I know
it's a similar to what I did yesterday
95
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:54.319
on your show, I kinda with
a long story route and share all the,
96
00:07:54.839 --> 00:07:58.040
you know, a little nuances of
my journey to being a creator,
97
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:01.560
I love to go through that same
journey with you today as well. Yeah,
98
00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:05.680
absolutely absolutely, Dude. So,
so, yeah, so, my
99
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:11.800
journey of of of getting to where
I am today is is really this understanding
100
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:15.120
in in kind of making my way
in this new life, you know,
101
00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:20.399
as as really just you know,
uh, gave you the synopsis. Um,
102
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:24.680
seventeen years old, junior in high
school, life, Skilling, great,
103
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:28.000
had a big four wheel drive fur
de f one, Fifty Forest Green,
104
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:33.720
big, thirty eight Super Swampers,
the dual flowmaster exhaust. UH,
105
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:37.320
beautiful truck. Love it. Did
did you? Did you have like that,
106
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:41.559
like swamp rider? Look where like
the tail end was was back and
107
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:45.559
the front of was lifted. I
don't know what that's called, but no,
108
00:08:45.559 --> 00:08:48.039
no, no, no, the
whole truck was. Whole truck was
109
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:50.600
lifted. It was. It was
six inch suspension lift, two inch body
110
00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:54.200
lift. Yeah, the whole thing
was. It was a big old monster
111
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:58.759
truck and uh, sounds cool.
Yeah, I loved it and so so
112
00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:03.240
I was going awesome until all of
a sudden it wasn't. And that came
113
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:05.960
with with the news from an M
R I that I had a brain tumor.
114
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:11.559
and Um, you know, we
we thought that was the traumatic part
115
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:16.480
and we were assured by the doctors
everything was gonna be Great. I'd be
116
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:20.919
back to school in three, four
weeks. No, problem. My my
117
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:26.000
biggest thing that I was the most
upset about, whoa two things. One
118
00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:30.879
was that the doctor told me I
was not allowed to keep the tumor,
119
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:33.960
because I thought it would be cool
to have it like in a jar,
120
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:37.919
like kept, like and and they're
like no, no, no, no,
121
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:39.960
we, we, we don't do
that. I'm like, Oh,
122
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:46.200
okay, you keep it, it's
your yeah, and I even named it.
123
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:50.320
I named it Bob, Bob the
tumor, and and so like we
124
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:54.120
we we had like a going away
Bob Party, me and my whole family
125
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:58.759
and and stuff. And so so
I was upset about the fact that I
126
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.679
didn't get them to keep the two
we're in a jar. And then,
127
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:03.960
though, I was upset that he
told me it was gonna be six months
128
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:09.200
before I'd be allowed to ride my
four wheel or again. And so,
129
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:13.320
seventeen years old, I mean that
was a big deal. and Um.
130
00:10:13.399 --> 00:10:18.519
And so, anyways, went into
surgery. Was the morning of October two
131
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:24.039
thousand three, and that was really
the day that my life forever changed,
132
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:28.840
because I went into surgery. We
had I had the tumor removed. It
133
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:35.600
was removed successfully, which saved my
life, Um, but at a cost.
134
00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:37.120
That no one expected. And that
was that I came out of surgery
135
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:41.879
to be left completely blind. So
so when you went into there were I
136
00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:46.120
mean, and maybe I'm getting off
topic a little bit, but were they
137
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:50.159
like, Hey, this is this
is pretty standard, like we're confident you're
138
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:54.440
gonna come out of here with your
vision and everything. So when when we
139
00:10:56.039 --> 00:11:00.840
met with the surgeon the first day
and in his office and we're going through
140
00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:05.399
everything and they have to give you
all the risks associated, and it's,
141
00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:07.879
you know, always like, always
joke, like, you know, we
142
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:11.320
got chance, we might cut off
your arm, even though we're messed with
143
00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:16.000
your head. You know well,
well, the very last stat that they
144
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:24.519
gave us one percent possibility that you
may become blind. Wo Yeah, one
145
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:30.240
percent. And and I can tell
you to this day, when I've had
146
00:11:30.279 --> 00:11:33.120
all the follow up, you know, appointments with the with the neurosurgeon,
147
00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:39.399
they'll tell you that everything's intact and
he doesn't understand why I can't see,
148
00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:43.279
but I can't. And so that
tumor, though, the tumor was big.
149
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:48.360
They compared it to the size of
a plum. It completely encased my
150
00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:54.960
pituitary gland, which your pituitary controls
all your body's hormones, like growth hormone,
151
00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:58.159
testosterone, all that kind of stuff. That's why I was only five
152
00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:05.360
ft three at seventeen years old.
I wasn't growing and Um. And so
153
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:09.159
it was also, though, in
the cross hairs of my optic nerve.
154
00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:16.000
And so what we feel like happened
is the optic nerve had actually begun tunneling
155
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:22.720
blood through the tumor, and so
when that tumor was removed, it kind
156
00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:26.600
of more or less cut off the
blood supplied to the optic nerve, causing
157
00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:33.440
it to a trophy and it died
Um. So so that was the big
158
00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:37.480
thing for me. And and and
I always tell people when I say that
159
00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:39.919
I went blind. They say,
I can't. I always, you know,
160
00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:43.919
let it me know that I went
completely blind because, come to find
161
00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:48.480
out, when people say they're blind, there's actually a big degree of what
162
00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:52.879
that means, because most people who
are blind, the vast majority, still
163
00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:58.919
see something. They have some type
of light perception, like they see shadows
164
00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:01.440
or or some like me, on
the other hand, I went all the
165
00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:07.000
way, all the way to the
dark side, and so so I came
166
00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:11.720
out with with absolutely nothing. Wow, man, wow. So you,
167
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:16.039
you, you went into surgery one
percent chance that you would lose your eyesight
168
00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:20.320
and you came out and and wow, I'm just sitting here trying to process,
169
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:22.480
because you know, I'm with you. I hear people say, Hey,
170
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:26.279
I'm blind, but then then they
can see what I'm doing. You
171
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:28.799
know, my grandmother was like my
great grandmother was like this, like she
172
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:31.200
was. She says she was blind, but then when I would like flip
173
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:39.360
my brother off or something, she
was what are you talking about? Like
174
00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:41.360
peripheral vision? It was fine,
it was just in front of her.
175
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:45.399
It was not good. And so, okay. So men, as a
176
00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:50.840
seventeen year old, I mean I
imagine this was like wow, what do
177
00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:54.320
I do? Like, what was
the emotions wrapped up in learning that you're
178
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:58.279
never gonna see again. You know, for for a long time, dude,
179
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:03.600
it was going through the motions,
because not only did I become blind,
180
00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:07.679
I also lost my sense to smell
at the same time, but I
181
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.399
also just had all these crazy medical
issues related to the surgery, related to
182
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:18.519
the fact that my pituitary gland was
now, you know, totally not working,
183
00:14:18.600 --> 00:14:24.000
and so I ended up I ended
up staying in the pediatric I see
184
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:28.480
you for two weeks in the hospital. I don't remember any of the time
185
00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:33.200
in that hospital after after rolling through
the operating room doors, I don't remember
186
00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:39.360
anything until sometime later on being back
at home, because I also suffered from
187
00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:45.279
short term memory loss for for about
uh, six months or so after surgery,
188
00:14:45.320 --> 00:14:50.080
I had short term memory loss,
all these different medical complications. It
189
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:54.200
was like literally nothing went right,
nothing went like we thought it was.
190
00:14:56.159 --> 00:14:58.480
And so a lot of it,
dude, it was just going through the
191
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:03.279
motion. And you know, remember
I was a junior in high school.
192
00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:07.600
Um, this was, you know, two months into my junior year,
193
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:13.240
a month after my seventeenth birthday,
and so that you know. But this
194
00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:20.600
is what's kind of cool about with
my story at this point is I was
195
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:24.519
a kid who hated school. I
mean, I'd rather be sick with the
196
00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:31.159
flu than have to go to school. And yet for some reason, here
197
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:35.919
this kid is who would rather skip
school any day of the week, and
198
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:41.159
yet now I have a get out
of school free card. Yet I didn't
199
00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:46.240
take it because for some reason,
from the very beginning, my family said,
200
00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.159
I kept saying, I just want
to be able to catch up with
201
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:56.559
my school work, to still graduate
with my class and so and so I
202
00:15:56.720 --> 00:16:00.799
ended up. I did it.
I literally I never went back to school
203
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:03.720
the rest of my junior year.
Instead, I had Um, they called
204
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:08.440
it hospital homebound, and so these
were teachers who would come to my my
205
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:12.600
my grandparents house, and so my
mom would drop me off with my Nana
206
00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:18.840
each morning before she'd go to work
and I'd stay at Nana's and and and
207
00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:21.919
I had teachers. I had a
teacher who came who taught me all my
208
00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:26.720
school subjects, another teacher who came
who taught me stuff with like blindness,
209
00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:32.799
like how to read Braill, how
to start using a talking computer, and
210
00:16:32.799 --> 00:16:36.360
then I had a third teacher who
was teaching me mobility skills, how to
211
00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:41.960
use a cane, how to get
around, and so I ultimately ended up
212
00:16:41.039 --> 00:16:45.759
catching up with my school work.
So the fact that I made it back
213
00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:51.519
to school for the start of my
senior year. And Yeah, and so
214
00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:56.480
we only had um at that time. We we did like a block schedule,
215
00:16:56.559 --> 00:16:59.639
so it was like four one and
a half hour classes each day,
216
00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:03.119
and so I just went back to
school my senior year for one class each
217
00:17:03.160 --> 00:17:07.960
morning and then the rest I did
at home. That way I could just
218
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:11.559
try and be back to school be
part of senior year, quote unquote,
219
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:18.160
and Um, ultimately, dude,
I walked across the stage in my high
220
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:25.799
school graduation and graduated with my class, class of two thousand five, and
221
00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:29.440
what that showed me, which which
I didn't realize that when it happened,
222
00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:33.559
but when I looked back at it, I realized now that I believe,
223
00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:38.440
because, because I'll preface this statement
by saying my faith is huge for me
224
00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:45.279
and the only way that I've gotten
through all of this and m where I
225
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:51.319
am today is because of my faith, and I believe in all my heart
226
00:17:51.440 --> 00:17:56.880
that me graduating high school, having
that drive to do so, was God
227
00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:02.519
showing me right off the bat that
you're still capable of doing great things in
228
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:06.920
this life. Wow, man,
I love this story. Man. I
229
00:18:06.920 --> 00:18:11.240
mean, you know, obviously some
for you, the part of it that's
230
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:14.119
it's tough, man. It's tough
and and you and I are the same
231
00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:17.960
age, same you know, graduated
the same year. So I'm sitting here,
232
00:18:18.200 --> 00:18:19.319
you know, I'm just kind of
reminiscing on like wow, what would
233
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:23.799
that have been like too, to
go through life and have to relearn everything,
234
00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:26.480
because you don't think about that.
You're like Oh, you lost your
235
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:27.920
eyesight. Okay, well next,
you know what's next? Like, well,
236
00:18:27.960 --> 00:18:30.720
you gotta go learn how to communicate, you gotta go learn how to
237
00:18:32.359 --> 00:18:34.559
do life a lot different. And
so, man, I'm kind of curious.
238
00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:40.440
You know, talking about content creation
and media creation, you talked about
239
00:18:40.599 --> 00:18:44.400
using a different type of computer.
So you know what it was this eighteen,
240
00:18:44.480 --> 00:18:48.759
nineteen years ago. What was the
technology like for the blind community back
241
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:52.680
then? Was it good? Was
it terrible, or what was that like?
242
00:18:52.480 --> 00:18:56.000
Yeah, well, you know,
when, when, when it happened,
243
00:18:56.200 --> 00:18:57.359
you know, I mean it was
good then. Now, of course
244
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:02.119
it's gotten a lot better, but
it you know, I mean I was
245
00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:04.559
I was lucky in the fact that
even when I went blind, you know,
246
00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:08.839
Gotcha, like I said, almost
nineteen years ago, they had these
247
00:19:08.880 --> 00:19:15.640
programs, these talking software programs called
Jaws that installs on a on a Microsoft
248
00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:21.680
computer, and so I started learning
how to do that and and I learned
249
00:19:21.720 --> 00:19:26.200
how to read Brail. But brail, you know, I didn't use it,
250
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:30.359
and so don't use that. You
forget it. And that was because
251
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:34.559
technology was was already a big,
big part of of my life. Now
252
00:19:36.119 --> 00:19:42.400
what's cool is seeing the evolution of
technology from when I went blind to today
253
00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:48.279
where, you know, especially with
the evolution of the IPHONE, because starting
254
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:52.680
with the iphone it was like the
three GS. It came out with voice
255
00:19:52.759 --> 00:20:00.000
over, which is Apple's built in
accessibility program which makes any of their their
256
00:20:00.079 --> 00:20:07.119
iphones, ipads, even their their
MAC computers, completely accessible to the blind.
257
00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:11.319
And and so, like, dude, it's absolutely phenomenal. Like my
258
00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:17.799
iphone that I have now, literally, as I am running my finger across
259
00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:22.119
the glass screen, the voice is
reading to me like the APPS that I'm
260
00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:25.640
crossing you over. So I have
a voice and I and I haven't set
261
00:20:25.720 --> 00:20:29.920
up to like the male serie voice, and so he's telling me, you
262
00:20:29.960 --> 00:20:33.799
know, a messages, calendar,
you know. And and then instead of
263
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:37.359
like me, instead of like where
somebody else would just tap the screen to
264
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:42.079
open an icon, instead I just
say double tap it and because I tap
265
00:20:42.119 --> 00:20:45.880
it once, it tells me what
it is. Tapping again it opens it.
266
00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:51.920
You know. Yeah, it's really
phenomenal. Yeah, man, this
267
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:53.880
is this is awesome. Kevin.
I really appreciate you sharing, you know,
268
00:20:53.920 --> 00:20:57.079
some of your story here. And
so you're so you're seventeen, you're
269
00:20:57.160 --> 00:21:02.240
learning a new way to communicate your
learning in a new way to Um,
270
00:21:02.279 --> 00:21:06.279
to do everything, to learn to
read to you know, I mean have
271
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:10.720
stuff read to you through these different
types of softwares. Um. So kind
272
00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:14.519
of walk me through like okay,
you graduated, which is amazing. Then
273
00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:18.319
what was where did Kevin go next
before we got into where you're at now.
274
00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:25.240
Yeah, so, so a lot
of time was spent just, Um,
275
00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:27.200
just just trying to to live,
just going through the day to day
276
00:21:27.279 --> 00:21:33.000
stuff. I tried going to to
our community college, Um. And you
277
00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:37.119
know, as I said earlier,
Kevin wasn't a fan of school to begin
278
00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:41.359
with, even when he could see, and it was easy. Now Kevin
279
00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:45.519
can't see, it's more difficult.
Now I'm at a community college and you
280
00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:49.359
know, they set me up with
AIDS who are there to be like note
281
00:21:49.359 --> 00:21:52.720
takers in the class with me.
Well, the note takers wouldn't show up
282
00:21:52.839 --> 00:21:57.559
or the note takers were like total
scumbags and and it was like ridiculous.
283
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:02.799
And so, need us to say, Um, I finally was like you
284
00:22:02.839 --> 00:22:07.079
know what, college eight for Kevin, and so I'm like, let's stop
285
00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:11.119
doing that route and instead, Um, you know, I just kept you
286
00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:15.119
know, like I said, a
lot of time passed and you know,
287
00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:18.559
man, the the counselors, um, luckily, luckily enough, where we
288
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:22.440
live, Um, literally. So
I live in Ormond Beach, the near
289
00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:26.880
nearby town of Daytona beach which is
literally like just connected to one another,
290
00:22:27.400 --> 00:22:33.880
has a huge blind population because it
has blind services. It has like,
291
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:40.279
I think the world's largest Brail Book
Library and Talking Book Library and all these
292
00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:44.000
services that I didn't even knew existed. And then all of a sudden I
293
00:22:44.039 --> 00:22:48.240
go blind and find out that we
have all of this here and Um,
294
00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:52.359
and so, you know, the
counselors there that we had, you know,
295
00:22:52.400 --> 00:22:56.119
of course. You know. They
they felt like Kevin wasn't progressing,
296
00:22:56.319 --> 00:23:00.759
you know, as fast as he
needed to, because Kevin, they would
297
00:23:00.759 --> 00:23:03.200
tell my parents. You know,
well, Kevin, you know, he
298
00:23:03.279 --> 00:23:06.839
just needs to accept it and he
needs to move on and, you know,
299
00:23:06.920 --> 00:23:08.119
and and no, no, no, no, none, and we
300
00:23:08.319 --> 00:23:12.599
he needs to learn how to do
laundry and cook and and and and meanwhile
301
00:23:12.640 --> 00:23:15.240
I'm like, well, well,
none of my friends are doing any of
302
00:23:15.440 --> 00:23:18.599
that. Why? All of a
sudden, because I'm blind, I now
303
00:23:18.720 --> 00:23:21.960
need to start cooking and doing laundry, like, what the heck? Like
304
00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:26.440
and I'm like, you know,
and stuff and so it definitely took like
305
00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:33.960
my own timeline of of really getting
through life. And the big thing came
306
00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:40.559
for me, Um Gosh, probably
in like twenty, probably like twenty eleven,
307
00:23:40.799 --> 00:23:44.440
I guess I would say so.
So about like six years later I
308
00:23:44.599 --> 00:23:49.839
ended up doing a program through one
of the blind services services that set me
309
00:23:49.960 --> 00:23:56.720
up with internships at local businesses and
so to place things that I was super
310
00:23:56.759 --> 00:24:02.880
interested in. One was trying level, so I interned at a local travel
311
00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:07.000
agency and the other, ironically,
was I was super into like wanted to
312
00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:12.599
be on radio, and so they
got me an internship with the local am
313
00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:18.599
radio station, where I went there
Monday, I think, Monday, Wednesday,
314
00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:22.799
Friday mornings. I worked on the
morning drive show and it was an
315
00:24:22.839 --> 00:24:27.000
am political like talk show. And
and so I did these internships, you
316
00:24:27.039 --> 00:24:30.400
know, at the same time of
one another. So I'd I'd work at
317
00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:36.119
the the radio station in the mornings
and in the afternoons I would go down
318
00:24:36.200 --> 00:24:41.160
to this travel agency and and,
you know, learned that whole industry and
319
00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:45.200
I loved radio. Oh my gosh
dude. I was like, Oh,
320
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:51.400
I love it, but they didn't
have anything for me at the end of
321
00:24:51.440 --> 00:24:56.200
the internship. So it was kind
of back to square one the travel agency.
322
00:24:56.759 --> 00:25:00.880
That internship ended. They weren't in
a place to hire anybody, and
323
00:25:00.920 --> 00:25:06.119
so I was kind of just back
at square one and just like okay,
324
00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:11.240
now what? And Luckily at that
point I found out about this whole thing
325
00:25:11.359 --> 00:25:15.799
of okay, well, you can
create your own travel agency called a home
326
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:21.640
based travel agency, and so that's
what I did. So in Um I
327
00:25:21.759 --> 00:25:27.000
launched my own business called better days
travel, and so that was January that
328
00:25:27.039 --> 00:25:33.519
I started my own own business and, dude, I operated that for the
329
00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:37.839
next seven years, looking amazing vacations. Yeah, Dude, you know,
330
00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:44.759
first of all I want to jump
back into just saying I love that even
331
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:48.799
in those programs and the councilors like
well, Kevin, you're not doing what
332
00:25:48.839 --> 00:25:51.920
you need to, need to do
all this one I love it that at
333
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:56.039
such a young age you recognize like
man, I'm still I'm still young,
334
00:25:56.079 --> 00:25:57.839
I'm still a kid, like why
am I having to, you know,
335
00:25:59.480 --> 00:26:02.599
like do all these things because I'm
my situation. So I love it that
336
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:03.880
you push back on that and put
it on your own timeline. I think
337
00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:08.519
a lot of times, as as
people, definitely as uh, content creators,
338
00:26:08.559 --> 00:26:11.960
definitely. As entrepreneurs, definitely hasn't. I mean as people in general,
339
00:26:12.519 --> 00:26:17.240
we're typically looking at the people around
us or, you know, seeing
340
00:26:17.240 --> 00:26:18.519
what's going on and going okay,
well, where am I at? And
341
00:26:18.519 --> 00:26:22.480
we're always comparing ourselves. And I
just love it, man, that you're
342
00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:26.119
like, Nope, I'm going to
do this on my timeline, I'm going
343
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:30.000
to figure this out and then,
Um, yeah, fast forward to two
344
00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:33.160
thousand thirteen. I love it,
dude, that you am from the guy
345
00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:36.640
who people said, hey, you're
a you're a slacker, you need,
346
00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:37.920
I mean not slacker, but you
know whatever, whatever they say, you
347
00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:41.880
need to be going faster. So
now you're like, dude, check this
348
00:26:41.920 --> 00:26:45.240
out, O my own travel agency. So I love that story, man,
349
00:26:45.319 --> 00:26:48.200
I love it. Dude. You
got me, yeah, hooked.
350
00:26:48.200 --> 00:26:49.880
I'm on the edge of my chair. Please continue. Yeah, yeah,
351
00:26:49.960 --> 00:26:53.160
well, and you know, and
even like the travel agency thing is is,
352
00:26:53.559 --> 00:26:56.160
you know, Kevin's never been one
to like just kind of do what
353
00:26:56.599 --> 00:27:00.599
you're supposed to do and what society
tells you to do, and so like
354
00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:06.160
even that, like, you know, like it wasn't nobody at blind services
355
00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:08.039
like recommended like, Oh, be
a travel agent. No, I'm like
356
00:27:08.160 --> 00:27:11.799
I love to travel. And so
so I started a travel agency thing and
357
00:27:11.799 --> 00:27:15.640
and even, to be honest,
like I feel like the travel agency that
358
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:21.640
it interned at, even though they
were absolutely incredible, I don't feel like
359
00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:26.759
they even thought like I could really
do it, you know and stuff.
360
00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:30.400
And so I'm like, Heck Yeah, I can do it. I got
361
00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:33.000
the technology to do it on the
computer. And so, dude, I
362
00:27:33.079 --> 00:27:37.640
started, yes, started the travel
agency and that was amazing. Like I
363
00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:45.240
said, for seven years from I
did a travel agency thing and but you
364
00:27:45.279 --> 00:27:48.759
know, and I mean booking vacations
from I did a bunch of I did
365
00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:52.119
a lot of honeymoons, two different
like all inclusive resorts. I did.
366
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:56.720
I did some awesome trips for people
like going. Like I had this one
367
00:27:56.759 --> 00:28:00.920
couple. They wanted to they couldn't
decide Costa Rica or the Florida keys.
368
00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:04.480
They lived in Colorado. So they're
like, well, we're gonna do both.
369
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:07.960
I'm like, YOU'RE gonna do they're
like two different places. Like yeah,
370
00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:11.519
we want to do both. So
like I literally like did a trip
371
00:28:11.559 --> 00:28:14.799
from they did a week in Costa
Rica, then flew him over to Florida,
372
00:28:15.079 --> 00:28:18.799
had on a rental car and they
did a week in the Florida keys
373
00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:22.920
and, uh, you know,
and so the whole travel business was awesome.
374
00:28:22.960 --> 00:28:26.799
Now, during that time, though, I mean it wasn't like my
375
00:28:26.839 --> 00:28:30.920
business ever like took off like as
good as I like wanted it to.
376
00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:37.079
And so so there were different times
when I actually went and kind of worked
377
00:28:37.119 --> 00:28:41.119
with some other companies, UM,
other travel agents, who were doing really
378
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:45.279
good, and then I'd come back
to doing my own thing because we wouldn't
379
00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:51.920
work out with them. And and
Steph until coming into I was set to
380
00:28:51.920 --> 00:28:56.880
have my best year on record.
I literally had some incredible trips, but
381
00:28:56.480 --> 00:29:03.759
many awesome honeymoons I did and even
had a trip lined up for I think
382
00:29:03.759 --> 00:29:11.319
it ended up being close to forty
of us were booked for October on a
383
00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:17.279
group cruise that I called, uh, read, a finding vision in because
384
00:29:17.400 --> 00:29:22.000
this was gonna be the seventeenth anniversary
of when I went blind, which I
385
00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:29.200
thought was super cool. Happened to
be in the in the year, and
386
00:29:29.599 --> 00:29:33.519
what was significant about that is it
meant that at that point I have been
387
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:36.960
blind as long as I had been
able to see, and so I had
388
00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:41.799
all this awesome stuff going for me. And then we all know happened in
389
00:29:41.839 --> 00:29:48.759
the world collapsed and within a week's
time there in March, I went from
390
00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:53.039
the best year on record to travel
agency that basically didn't exist. Wow,
391
00:29:53.079 --> 00:29:59.160
man. Yeah, so this is
where and this is where we're talking about
392
00:29:59.200 --> 00:30:02.839
this change in because I think,
like you know, I think as as
393
00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:06.799
creators, sometimes we get this idea
and we go, well, we want
394
00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:08.279
to do the show, we want
to do you know whatever, like this
395
00:30:08.359 --> 00:30:14.440
podcast to Tiktok, to this instagram's
whatever. But we don't want to you
396
00:30:14.480 --> 00:30:15.480
know, we don't want to change, we just want to keep grinding and
397
00:30:15.480 --> 00:30:18.440
trying to make it work, and
I think that's one thing that you and
398
00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:22.160
I have in common, and I
shared the story on your podcast episode,
399
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:25.240
which will come out in a couple
of weeks. Um that will promote.
400
00:30:25.279 --> 00:30:26.640
So if you guys want to hear
the story. But we have very similar
401
00:30:26.680 --> 00:30:33.039
stories where our businesses established, businesses
went away during the pandemic, and so,
402
00:30:33.519 --> 00:30:37.559
yeah, man, it's incredible.
And if we weren't willing to change
403
00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:41.400
and if we were trying to just
hang onto that same thing, um,
404
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:44.960
we're probably just gotten our lunch eating
and would be working, you know,
405
00:30:45.039 --> 00:30:48.240
like you want extra large friends with
that, like you know, and not
406
00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:49.920
that there's anything wrong, because I
think fast food is paying a lot of
407
00:30:49.920 --> 00:30:52.480
money these days, but you know, we would have probably been there doing
408
00:30:52.480 --> 00:30:59.839
something, you know. So so. So, take me into so twenty
409
00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:03.599
wanting your business basically just like goes
away, very similar to my story as
410
00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:07.799
well. So take me into like
how does that lead you into podcasting?
411
00:31:08.680 --> 00:31:14.160
Yeah, so, so at this
point we're in quarantine mode. And at
412
00:31:14.200 --> 00:31:17.880
this point I'm like, okay,
travel agency, you know, is done.
413
00:31:17.920 --> 00:31:19.880
But at this point I had it, given up on it, and
414
00:31:19.880 --> 00:31:22.759
and so, but I'm like,
okay, what am I gonna do?
415
00:31:22.880 --> 00:31:26.240
We're in quarantine, while I'm like, you know what, perfect opportunity.
416
00:31:26.279 --> 00:31:30.000
I've been thinking about doing a youtube
channel for a long time, and so
417
00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:33.880
I'm like, you know what,
this perfect opportunity to explore this opportunity.
418
00:31:34.119 --> 00:31:41.000
So I start going on Amazon ordering
all this stuff for doing a youtube channel,
419
00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:45.799
and so I'm getting like the ring
light and in the tripod thing,
420
00:31:47.880 --> 00:31:51.960
and then all of a sudden it
just kind of like boom, like slapped
421
00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:56.920
me in the face like reality check, like, Kev, you're blind,
422
00:31:56.880 --> 00:32:02.279
you can't do this yourself. You'RE
gonna have to have somebody here helping to
423
00:32:02.440 --> 00:32:07.480
film you? And how? How's
that gonna work? That's gonna be a
424
00:32:07.480 --> 00:32:12.119
pain in the neck. And so
I'm like, oh Lord, all the
425
00:32:12.240 --> 00:32:15.559
all this camera equipment and stuff.
Yeah, forget it. And so it
426
00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:19.720
was at that time that I think
it was my sister who was like,
427
00:32:20.480 --> 00:32:25.119
why don't you look at doing a
podcast? Well, the time I didn't
428
00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:29.759
even know what a podcast was.
I didn't listen to any. And so
429
00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:34.319
I started listening to podcast and and
and I'm like, Oh, okay,
430
00:32:34.440 --> 00:32:36.680
you know, and and I'm and
I'm, you know, understanding what a
431
00:32:36.720 --> 00:32:39.359
podcast is. And and so now, though, I'm getting excited. And
432
00:32:39.400 --> 00:32:45.559
so now I start listening to podcasts
about how to start podcasts and and and
433
00:32:45.720 --> 00:32:49.839
that's what started it. Now,
when I started my podcast, it was
434
00:32:49.880 --> 00:32:54.119
called the low down on life and
travel, because it was gonna combine aspects
435
00:32:54.160 --> 00:33:00.200
of my life story. But also, again, I'm still at that point
436
00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:04.839
thinking it's still tying back to travel, thinking this is an awesome opportunity to
437
00:33:05.519 --> 00:33:10.160
drive attention to the travel agency.
And and so that's how the podcast got
438
00:33:10.240 --> 00:33:15.920
started. And and so I I
started doing the podcast thing and, Dude,
439
00:33:15.960 --> 00:33:21.240
I fell in love with it and
and what was so cool was I
440
00:33:21.359 --> 00:33:25.039
kept having people tell me, Kevin, like you are so good at this.
441
00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:30.599
I'm like yeah, I'm like,
I'm really liking it, and sowes
442
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:36.200
going on. I mean I think
I launched my podcast in May of and,
443
00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:39.839
Um, you know, as as
the years going on and and I'm
444
00:33:39.839 --> 00:33:46.279
realizing I'm liking it more and more. We're coming up to one and I
445
00:33:46.319 --> 00:33:51.559
find myself at this point like I
don't want to book any more trips.
446
00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:53.079
I'm like, I'm telling everybody.
I'm like no, no, no,
447
00:33:53.200 --> 00:33:57.400
you don't understand. I'm like,
I feel like I'm onto something and this
448
00:33:57.519 --> 00:34:02.359
is way better than canceling vacations.
And so you know. And and my
449
00:34:02.440 --> 00:34:06.799
whole thing was was I'm like,
I didn't know where it was going to
450
00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:10.800
lead and I didn't know how it's
gonna make it work, but I just
451
00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:16.880
knew that I found something that felt
right because, as much as I loved
452
00:34:17.360 --> 00:34:22.280
the world of travel, as much
as I enjoyed being a travel agent,
453
00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:27.719
to be honest with you, I
knew in my heart that wasn't what I
454
00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:31.679
was meant to be doing. I
knew that there was something more for me
455
00:34:32.280 --> 00:34:37.800
because during this whole time too.
I started sharing my story. I started
456
00:34:37.920 --> 00:34:42.000
speaking at Churches, at schools,
sharing about how I went blind, how
457
00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:46.079
I overcame what happened to me,
and and so, you know, I
458
00:34:46.239 --> 00:34:52.440
really loved doing that. But so, again, the whole travel thing it,
459
00:34:52.719 --> 00:34:58.599
you know, it just it wasn't
really me until sometimes, though,
460
00:34:59.159 --> 00:35:04.639
in relating back to you know,
you listening to this, is sometimes it's
461
00:35:05.000 --> 00:35:07.960
tough for us to make the choices. And so for me, the pandemic,
462
00:35:08.239 --> 00:35:13.679
to be honest, that aspect of
the pandemic was a blessing because it
463
00:35:13.960 --> 00:35:19.360
forced the door to close and allowed
me to explore a new door that opened.
464
00:35:20.280 --> 00:35:23.159
And that was the podcast, which, you know, like you know,
465
00:35:23.320 --> 00:35:27.679
kind of catching back up where I
left off going into one. At
466
00:35:27.760 --> 00:35:30.280
that point I'm loving it. I'm
realizing I don't want to just focus on
467
00:35:30.400 --> 00:35:36.280
travel content, and that's when I
rebranded it again, not being afraid to
468
00:35:36.400 --> 00:35:39.639
make a change, I rebranded it
into what it is now, the lowdown
469
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:44.719
with Kevin Low. I explored a
bunch of different names and everybody's like,
470
00:35:44.800 --> 00:35:46.480
Dude, you gotta go with the
lowdown with Kevin Low. They're like it
471
00:35:46.639 --> 00:35:52.719
just it just flows. And so
so I did that and and have just
472
00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:57.039
not looked back since. Dude,
I love this story, man, and
473
00:35:57.159 --> 00:36:00.320
I think you know the part that
I love the most is like the radio
474
00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:01.880
GIG that you had early on.
You're like, dude, this is but
475
00:36:01.960 --> 00:36:07.519
there's no opportunity. And now it's
like your world comes like super full circle
476
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:12.360
and it's like, oh now you
can do a radio you know audio,
477
00:36:12.400 --> 00:36:15.920
I'll say audio and audio. You
know show, which you're what you are
478
00:36:16.159 --> 00:36:19.400
great at. Man. First of
all, you know, I listened to
479
00:36:19.440 --> 00:36:22.800
your show. Um, I was
a guest yesterday, as you know,
480
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:25.280
in a recording for your show,
and Um, I even went home and
481
00:36:25.360 --> 00:36:28.480
told my wife. I'm like,
man, this guy, Kevin Dide,
482
00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:31.239
he is so dynamic. Like if
there was some way that he and I
483
00:36:31.400 --> 00:36:34.920
could do a show, this is
one. This is the pitch right here
484
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:37.719
that he and I could do a
show together, like I would love it
485
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:40.880
because we're very similar, very similar
backgrounds and stories and same age and all
486
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:45.719
that kind of stuff, and he's
like dynamic on the microphone. And so
487
00:36:45.159 --> 00:36:47.559
you know, man, I just
I just want to say congrats to you
488
00:36:47.880 --> 00:36:52.679
for, you know, finding that
love of radio through podcasting or scratching that
489
00:36:52.800 --> 00:36:57.079
love. You know, it's or
whatever, through through podcasting, and you
490
00:36:57.239 --> 00:37:00.159
are good at it, man,
like you are killer at it. So
491
00:37:00.840 --> 00:37:02.519
Um, look that and I get
it, dude, all the cameras and
492
00:37:02.599 --> 00:37:06.440
the lights and everything. I'm like, you know, I mean, I
493
00:37:06.599 --> 00:37:09.840
can see perfectly fine and I have
so much trouble still trying to get stuff
494
00:37:09.880 --> 00:37:14.440
to do what I wanted to.
So Um, but but if you need
495
00:37:14.480 --> 00:37:16.719
help, dude, I'll fly to
Florida and we'll set something up for you.
496
00:37:16.880 --> 00:37:20.000
If that's what if that's what it
takes, man, if you want
497
00:37:20.039 --> 00:37:22.960
to get into video world, I
don't want tech to stop you. I
498
00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:24.199
can come down there and help you
out. So let me know. I'm
499
00:37:24.280 --> 00:37:28.599
book to flight, or book the
card trip. I should say that I'm
500
00:37:28.639 --> 00:37:30.400
talking like I'm a millionaire. I'll
let you book a flight. How's that?
501
00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:35.079
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I just just call it the
502
00:37:35.159 --> 00:37:37.760
private jet, you know, and
Buzz, I'm down here, honey.
503
00:37:37.800 --> 00:37:40.239
So I'm going to Kevin's for the
weekend. Called the jet, please.
504
00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:45.280
Called the nanny for the kids.
We're going on a vacation. Now that's
505
00:37:45.599 --> 00:37:47.880
definitely not how it's happening. She's
probably watching this like no, what are
506
00:37:47.880 --> 00:37:51.599
you talking about? Booking a flight
like you're gonna Fil me down there,
507
00:37:51.719 --> 00:37:57.760
Dude, Oh man, that's too
much. But but now, Dude,
508
00:37:57.960 --> 00:38:00.519
thank you. And and, you
know, and and no man. And
509
00:38:00.920 --> 00:38:04.159
it's, you know, a funny
story about the whole world of video and
510
00:38:04.599 --> 00:38:07.599
versus audio. You know, because
you know, you know, like the
511
00:38:07.679 --> 00:38:12.280
whole podcasting space is taken on.
You know where video is a big aspect.
512
00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:15.079
You know, and and I and
I often joke and and and,
513
00:38:15.199 --> 00:38:21.599
because sometimes I've had guests on my
show who they'll get up set almost that
514
00:38:21.679 --> 00:38:25.320
we're not doing video. And and
I'm like, Whoa. I'm like,
515
00:38:25.880 --> 00:38:30.039
I'm like, first and foremost,
you sighted people like to use your eyes
516
00:38:30.280 --> 00:38:35.719
way too much. I'm like,
I'm like, I'm like, have you
517
00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:38.800
ever? I'm like, have you
ever been in the car listening to the
518
00:38:38.920 --> 00:38:42.760
radio and been like, oh my
gosh, this just irritates me that I
519
00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:47.039
can't see them? I'm like,
you know, it's argument. But but
520
00:38:47.159 --> 00:38:51.480
then I always joke, though,
with the people who, if they try
521
00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:53.760
and give me any any, any
smack about no video, I say,
522
00:38:53.840 --> 00:38:58.239
I said listen, I said think
about it like this. I said,
523
00:38:58.760 --> 00:39:02.239
I'm sitting here in my studio.
I like to stay cool. So the
524
00:39:02.360 --> 00:39:07.280
lights off. I said, you're
on your end. I said, I
525
00:39:07.480 --> 00:39:10.599
can't see you, but you can
see me sitting in this dark room with
526
00:39:10.719 --> 00:39:14.960
my lips up to a microphone.
Doesn't that seem a little bit creepy?
527
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:22.960
And at that point they're just they
are either speechless or they're just kind of
528
00:39:22.000 --> 00:39:24.440
like uh, yeah, yeah,
we get it, we get it.
529
00:39:27.519 --> 00:39:30.880
You know right. Well, dude, and I mentioned because we you know,
530
00:39:30.920 --> 00:39:34.920
we went um recorded for your show
yesterday, as I've mentioned several times,
531
00:39:35.679 --> 00:39:39.199
and we just did video or audio
only, and it's not often even,
532
00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:44.239
and I think it told you this, like even when I am doing
533
00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:49.679
just an audio only podcast, it's
typically video as well, because people are
534
00:39:49.719 --> 00:39:52.320
like, well, if you do
video at least like a zoom call or
535
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:55.559
e Cam or whatever, then you
can see each other, you can kind
536
00:39:55.559 --> 00:40:00.480
of get those you know whatever,
like those physical cues or or whatnot,
537
00:40:00.760 --> 00:40:04.039
or eyebrow raises or you know whatever. You can kind of get into the
538
00:40:04.079 --> 00:40:07.159
conversation a little bit more, or
so people say. But Dude, on
539
00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:10.679
the guest side, yesterday, when
I was on your show to make an
540
00:40:10.760 --> 00:40:15.119
argument for audio only, even in
the recording process, dude, I was
541
00:40:15.239 --> 00:40:20.960
like super, super comfortable I wasn't
worried about what my hair looked like or
542
00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:23.199
if my hat was on right or
wrong, or what clothes I was wearing.
543
00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:28.639
I literally kicked up my feet on
my desk, pulled my microphone clothes,
544
00:40:28.800 --> 00:40:31.000
lean back in my chair and we
just talked for over an hour and
545
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:37.480
it was like an incredible conversation and
probably, you know, maybe even over
546
00:40:37.599 --> 00:40:40.280
shared a little bit or shared stuff
I wouldn't normally share if I was on
547
00:40:40.480 --> 00:40:45.199
camera and not, you know,
not feeling super confident. So I definitely
548
00:40:45.239 --> 00:40:47.440
think there's an argument. And you
know, you're the quality of the show
549
00:40:47.519 --> 00:40:52.480
that you do and the the amount
of information that you get from guests and
550
00:40:52.679 --> 00:40:55.800
stories and things like that. I
think that has a lot to do with
551
00:40:55.880 --> 00:41:00.880
your success as far as producing a
podcast audio only. Sure. Yeah,
552
00:41:01.000 --> 00:41:05.239
well, well, thank you so
much, man and and and just to
553
00:41:05.320 --> 00:41:08.519
acto what you're saying, dude,
I agree. And the fact that I
554
00:41:08.639 --> 00:41:13.840
have found it was so many of
the interviews that I've done. The people
555
00:41:14.400 --> 00:41:19.400
will will tell me they're like wow, they just open up and and and
556
00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:22.079
they'll they'll tell me they're like,
they're like you, you ask such questions
557
00:41:22.199 --> 00:41:27.760
that questions that no one else asks
before and they'll and they'll even have even
558
00:41:27.800 --> 00:41:30.599
had some people say they're like you
see parts of my story that no one
559
00:41:30.639 --> 00:41:37.000
else sees. And and and again. It lends its hand to this fact
560
00:41:37.079 --> 00:41:42.840
of eliminate. Even for you cited
people. Eliminate that. Focus on the
561
00:41:42.960 --> 00:41:47.519
sound of the voice. Pay attention
to that and it eliminates you know,
562
00:41:47.599 --> 00:41:52.079
whether we want to believe it or
not, we form opinions in our mind
563
00:41:52.400 --> 00:41:55.880
as soon as we see the person. Instead, if you can eliminate that
564
00:41:57.679 --> 00:42:01.239
and just get down to what they're
saying, I feel like it just makes
565
00:42:01.320 --> 00:42:06.159
a better story, a better interview. Yeah, man, absolutely. Well,
566
00:42:06.239 --> 00:42:09.119
Dude. You know, I think
people might look and say, oh,
567
00:42:09.199 --> 00:42:13.719
man, Kevin lost his eyesight,
that's a that's a hindrance, but
568
00:42:14.119 --> 00:42:16.599
really it's a superpower because of what
you just said, and I know in
569
00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:22.360
the music industry people and producers will
go into a sound booth to listen to
570
00:42:22.440 --> 00:42:27.760
playbacks and everyone in there has their
eyes closed. They're not focused on anything
571
00:42:28.000 --> 00:42:31.760
but their ears and they're listening and
then they're tweaking stuff that way and then
572
00:42:31.840 --> 00:42:36.719
listening to the playback with their eyes
closed, and so I think that that
573
00:42:36.920 --> 00:42:38.199
is a part of your success,
man, and that's gonna be a part
574
00:42:38.199 --> 00:42:43.400
of your continued successes. You know, you've taken this what people would deem
575
00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:46.800
uh hindrance or disability and saying,
well, you know, I might as
576
00:42:46.840 --> 00:42:52.280
well just sit around and do nothing
because I'm not capable of figuring this out.
577
00:42:52.440 --> 00:42:55.239
And you've come up against every single
thing and all these changes that were
578
00:42:55.400 --> 00:43:00.599
forced upon you. You've taken them, you've grabbed them and said, okay,
579
00:43:00.639 --> 00:43:02.440
how can I make this work for
me? And that's why I admire
580
00:43:02.519 --> 00:43:06.119
you so much, man. That's
why I wanted to have you on the
581
00:43:06.280 --> 00:43:08.800
show, because you know, ascided
people. I love that. You say
582
00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:15.440
that's so funny, man, I'm
excited first and that you know, sometimes
583
00:43:15.519 --> 00:43:17.519
we can be like, Oh,
dude, you know life socks. You
584
00:43:17.559 --> 00:43:21.159
can't free this program out, I
can't frege the software, I can't figure
585
00:43:21.159 --> 00:43:23.599
out these lights and this camera,
and then I'm over here like man,
586
00:43:23.760 --> 00:43:30.079
Kevin's figuring it out, like figure
it out. I gotta insane for me
587
00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:32.239
too, man, like okay,
dude, this guy is showing up every
588
00:43:32.280 --> 00:43:36.159
week recording. Dude, you record
one, two or three podcasts a week
589
00:43:36.280 --> 00:43:38.840
or something. After yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Dude,
590
00:43:38.880 --> 00:43:43.079
and you're I mean you're hustling,
you're communicating and you're doing all the
591
00:43:43.159 --> 00:43:45.079
things, and I was blowing you
up with text messages late at night when
592
00:43:45.079 --> 00:43:47.440
you're supposed to be asleep, because
you wake up at four am. But
593
00:43:50.840 --> 00:43:53.280
only for you only. I was
like, unfortunately for you, Kevin,
594
00:43:53.440 --> 00:43:57.960
now we've become friends and anybody has. My friend was like, man,
595
00:43:58.280 --> 00:44:01.400
okay, likes to talk a lot. My my my only thought was,
596
00:44:01.440 --> 00:44:04.320
I'm like, I'm like, you
know what, if he really irritates me,
597
00:44:04.400 --> 00:44:07.559
I'll just start responding when I get
up at four. That's an option.
598
00:44:08.119 --> 00:44:12.280
That's well. There was a point
last night when we were swapping text
599
00:44:12.360 --> 00:44:14.000
and you're like Hey, man,
I'm sorry, I gotta go. It's
600
00:44:14.079 --> 00:44:16.039
nine thirty. I get up at
four. I was about to be like,
601
00:44:16.119 --> 00:44:19.039
Oh, dude, well, shoot
me a text when you get up,
602
00:44:19.039 --> 00:44:22.440
because maybe it'll help me get up
earlier. And then I deleted the
603
00:44:22.519 --> 00:44:28.599
TEX. I'm like no, don't, don't text me or call me a
604
00:44:28.679 --> 00:44:36.199
four am. So well, Kevin, is there anything that we didn't chat
605
00:44:36.239 --> 00:44:37.119
about? Man, I know,
Um, you know, we've been on
606
00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:39.559
here for a little bit. Not
that I want to rush off, but
607
00:44:40.280 --> 00:44:44.320
Um, I mean we've covered a
lot of ground and I love your story
608
00:44:44.360 --> 00:44:46.639
and I love that you came and
you share it with with myself and my
609
00:44:46.960 --> 00:44:50.800
it's the first time I've heard your
entire story. I've heard bits and pieces
610
00:44:50.840 --> 00:44:54.440
from different podcasts and different shows,
Um, but I'm excited to you know,
611
00:44:54.559 --> 00:44:59.400
see to know Kevin a little bit
more and then knowing that you've taken
612
00:44:59.719 --> 00:45:01.840
all the stuff that life is thrown
at you. You've put it all on
613
00:45:01.880 --> 00:45:05.519
a big ball and you're throwing it
back at life and you're winning and I
614
00:45:05.679 --> 00:45:08.159
love that. So, is there
any other things that you want to share?
615
00:45:08.199 --> 00:45:10.559
That didn't like really set you up
or I don't know, it's good
616
00:45:10.599 --> 00:45:15.119
to interviewers you. So I apologize, but hopefully I've done a decent job
617
00:45:15.280 --> 00:45:19.480
at a walking people through your story
or helping you walk them through it.
618
00:45:20.159 --> 00:45:23.039
Yeah, no, man, that
this has absolutely been absolutely a blast.
619
00:45:23.280 --> 00:45:27.639
I've enjoyed it so much and you
know honestly that the only thing that I
620
00:45:27.679 --> 00:45:30.159
would would leave with is, you
know, since we're talking to a lot
621
00:45:30.199 --> 00:45:38.639
of content creators, is use my
story as an inspiration to incorporate what you've
622
00:45:38.719 --> 00:45:43.880
been through in life as content.
So many times what we're trying to come
623
00:45:43.960 --> 00:45:46.599
up with content, trying to come
up with with new ideas. Well,
624
00:45:46.800 --> 00:45:52.559
a lot of times it's a stuff
we've already done in life. It's the
625
00:45:52.800 --> 00:45:57.800
stories that we have. Those are
the content. That is absolutely phenomenal.
626
00:45:58.159 --> 00:46:02.360
It's it's taking stories of when you
were a kid, funny stuff, serious
627
00:46:02.440 --> 00:46:08.079
stuff, sad stuff, and turning
that into content today. And I believe
628
00:46:08.119 --> 00:46:13.960
you know, that's just such an
amazing resource that I don't feel like enough
629
00:46:14.039 --> 00:46:17.480
people utilize. And so so that's
my one tip. My second tip is
630
00:46:19.559 --> 00:46:23.119
don't be afraid to make a change. If if it, if it's recording
631
00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:28.920
equipment, filming equipment, just get
something, because we we all get we
632
00:46:29.039 --> 00:46:31.280
all get especially in the tech space. We're all like, oh my gosh,
633
00:46:31.960 --> 00:46:35.800
which one do I choose? I
choose this microphone or that microphone?
634
00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:39.320
Just choose the one microphone that's best
in your budget, that looks good,
635
00:46:39.639 --> 00:46:45.760
and realize you can upgrade later.
You can make it change later, Dude.
636
00:46:45.320 --> 00:46:49.599
So that those are my my two
big, big piece of advice.
637
00:46:49.760 --> 00:46:52.400
You know, for for somebody I
listening to this, Kevin, that's great
638
00:46:52.400 --> 00:46:57.599
advicement. I always tell people like
he start dirty, start messy, borrow
639
00:46:57.760 --> 00:47:00.320
equipment if you have to, like
whatever gets you to the to the starting
640
00:47:00.440 --> 00:47:05.199
line, to actually start, I
guess, across the starting line. Um,
641
00:47:05.360 --> 00:47:07.920
don't worry about the finish line because's
never gonna show up. Like it's
642
00:47:07.000 --> 00:47:10.159
never showing up. Like we're all
in this for the long haul, and
643
00:47:10.280 --> 00:47:13.840
so I love that that. Just
get what you can, get what's in
644
00:47:13.880 --> 00:47:15.719
your budget, get whatever you know
you're comfortable with, and then you can
645
00:47:15.800 --> 00:47:21.280
always upgrade later. That is good
coaching, Kevin, and I want to
646
00:47:21.400 --> 00:47:22.920
I want to leave, I want
to sit. That was my segway.
647
00:47:22.960 --> 00:47:27.400
That was a terrible segue, but
that's my segue to set you up to
648
00:47:27.440 --> 00:47:30.599
tell me about your new coaching business, because I know your your podcaster,
649
00:47:30.800 --> 00:47:34.440
you're doing that thing, you're working
with sponsors, you're you're monetizing that way,
650
00:47:35.039 --> 00:47:37.440
Um, but you've also started helping
people. So take a couple of
651
00:47:37.480 --> 00:47:39.920
minutes here and UH, and pitch
us, man, tell us about your
652
00:47:39.960 --> 00:47:44.320
new coaching Gig. Yeah, dude, absolutely, so. So, yeah,
653
00:47:44.440 --> 00:47:51.800
so I started coaching two different aspects
kind of Oh, I think I
654
00:47:51.960 --> 00:47:59.159
lost you there, man, oh
there. Oh, yeah, okay,
655
00:47:59.199 --> 00:48:01.239
now I got your back. I
get your back. Might here. I
656
00:48:01.280 --> 00:48:06.719
can hear okay, perfect, okay, perfect. So, yeah, so
657
00:48:06.840 --> 00:48:12.480
I work as a transformational life and
business coach. Basically, what that means
658
00:48:12.760 --> 00:48:15.599
is somebody who's gone through some stuff
in life and they're looking to make a
659
00:48:15.760 --> 00:48:20.559
change but they're not sure how to
do it or they lack the confidence to
660
00:48:20.639 --> 00:48:23.679
do it. I step in to
help people make that change, create the
661
00:48:23.800 --> 00:48:30.400
business, create the side hustle,
but something that truly pulls on their passions
662
00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:32.639
and what what they've done? You
know, we we've we've all had the
663
00:48:32.880 --> 00:48:37.880
you know, the J ob.
But what if we can use what we've
664
00:48:37.960 --> 00:48:42.480
been through the messiness and turn that
in to the gifts that now we can
665
00:48:42.639 --> 00:48:46.679
use where we show up Monday morning
just as excited as if it was Friday
666
00:48:46.800 --> 00:48:51.000
evening? And so I do that
as a coach. And then I also
667
00:48:51.159 --> 00:48:55.000
something new that I've started, that
I've been doing for free, um forever,
668
00:48:55.960 --> 00:49:00.960
and now, though, I'm actually
starting is a consulting business for for
669
00:49:00.159 --> 00:49:07.639
companies organizations that have websites or APPS, as a website accessibility consultant, and
670
00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:10.800
so that is people don't realize the
amount of people out there who are blind
671
00:49:10.960 --> 00:49:16.199
or visually impaired who use these screen
reading programs like I talked about, and
672
00:49:17.960 --> 00:49:23.400
programs, APPS, websites, they
have the ability to be made where they
673
00:49:23.519 --> 00:49:28.599
work better with the software, and
so a lot of times it just takes
674
00:49:28.639 --> 00:49:31.360
some tweaking. And so I've started
working, you know, as a consultant
675
00:49:31.719 --> 00:49:37.199
where people will hire me companies to
come in review their websites, go over
676
00:49:37.679 --> 00:49:39.159
all the findings with them and help
them, you know, be able to
677
00:49:39.320 --> 00:49:44.639
figure out what little edits they can
make so that it's more accessible to the
678
00:49:44.719 --> 00:49:47.440
blind and visually impaired. Man,
that is so awesome, dude, on
679
00:49:47.599 --> 00:49:52.320
all levels. I Love that you're
coaching people in the business and and then
680
00:49:52.360 --> 00:49:58.599
I love, I love even more
that you're consulting businesses to create accessibility for
681
00:49:58.840 --> 00:50:01.480
the blind community. Man, I
think is so powerful in super dope that
682
00:50:01.639 --> 00:50:06.039
you are taking that initiative and becoming
that, you know, that voice for
683
00:50:06.079 --> 00:50:08.400
your industry, man, or that
voice for your for your for your niche.
684
00:50:08.480 --> 00:50:12.679
there. You know, I think
that's an incredible, uh journey and
685
00:50:12.679 --> 00:50:15.199
incredible feat to take. So hopefully
somebody listening to this, some company,
686
00:50:15.320 --> 00:50:19.519
some business out there, we'll call
you, Kevin, and say hey,
687
00:50:19.599 --> 00:50:22.960
man, come come check our stuff
out, like, let us know what
688
00:50:22.119 --> 00:50:25.639
we can do to tweak it,
because it's huge opportunity. I imagine there's
689
00:50:25.639 --> 00:50:30.760
a lot of people utilizing websites that
you know have that are blind, that
690
00:50:30.880 --> 00:50:35.480
can't see. So it's like it's
a business opportunity. I mean not to
691
00:50:35.760 --> 00:50:37.199
be weird or nothing, but that's
what it is and that's what you're trying
692
00:50:37.199 --> 00:50:39.679
to help them succeed at. So, good morning, man. That's cool.
693
00:50:40.920 --> 00:50:45.639
Exactly. Awesome, man, exactly. Thank you, man, awesome,
694
00:50:45.679 --> 00:50:47.800
man. Well, Kevin, I
appreciate you, dude. I know
695
00:50:47.960 --> 00:50:51.719
this is not going to be your
last time on the show. I'm already
696
00:50:51.800 --> 00:50:54.360
brainstorming right now as we're hanging out, like, how can I get this
697
00:50:54.480 --> 00:50:58.159

because I have so much fun and we
