A Business Meeting With Lions Linebacker Brandon Copeland
This meeting I had with Detroit Lions Linebacker Brandon Copeland showed off some great macro-focused points that I like to get across to athletes. We talk about leveraging the name of the brand that you play for to help get ahead in business, personal branding and any other entrepreneurial endeavors you may be chasing. Utilizing a brand that gives you leverage is a massive upside that once you start to realize how it works and how to use it, you'll win. <3

Hanging out with the crew at Hot 97's Ebro In the Morning was a BLAST.

A Keynote at Agent 2021
I was fired up for this opening keynote that I gave at VaynerExperience's first major event, Agent2021 geared at the emerging and changing digital platforms that we as marketers and strategists have to adapt to. A big point that I try and get across here, is that content marketing is still the key point that you should be focusing on- especially if you fall into either the Auto sales, insurance sales, real estate or travel demographics that this conference was focused around - legacy industries ...

An Interview on The Millennial Way Show at Agent 2021
This was a really cool interview to do, on a Facebook live based show at Agent2021- We focused insanely heavily on voice, audio and how it's the next generation of social interaction that's reducing friction for businesses and consumers at the same time.

Agent2021 may have gone, but the chats, keynotes and Q&A's here were COMPLETE fire.

Some serious fire towards the end of this chat too - compa...

Being One of The First YouTubers, Viddler and Subscriber Dedication | An Interview on VideoInfluencers
This was a really cool interview I did a little while back which focused pretty heavily on becoming an influencer & starting in the video space when it first debuted. I chat about being one of the first on YouTube, and why I made the choice at the time to move to Viddler (and then back to YouTube), and chop it up about why subscriber dedication is much more important than a subscriber number (width vs depth). This is a great interview for anyone playing the video game and playing with growth on ...

A Mashup: 5 Thoughts On Why Alexa and IoT Is The Future
If you've consumed any of my content, you know that I'm extremely hot on voice, and podcasting. Voice in particular, I believe will massively impact the consumer market as it provides an insanely low friction point. Want to order some toothpaste? Alexa, Order toothpaste. It's just that easy.

A Fireside Chat at General Assembly with Garyvee And Casey Neistat
This chat that I did with my good friend Casey Neistat has to be one of the best fireside style interviews ever. We go deep in this, and talk about why we both will leave money on the table to make sure we're staying true to ourselves & who we are, and how both Casey and I are all in on "attention" as a whole - we both understand that in a social first world, that's easily one of the most important things to focus on.

A Meeting With Rapper Gunna
One of the best meetings I've ever had with a Rapper- loved chopping it up with Gunna, and I love what this guy is saying and how he's one of the most genuine lyricists in the game. He's up and coming, so we talk a ton about how the spot he's in right now is the toughest he's going to be in for a while. This is where the decisions count, and where the choices really really matter- because they affect the path he'll go down so heavily. This was a great meeting, hope you all enjoy !!

A Business Meeting with Mentalist Lior Suchard
Loved meeting with Mentalist Lior Suchard to chat illusions, mindfulness and the power of making decisions for yourself. I don't think that this is "magic", I just think that it's practical.

A Rant: Short Term Dollars Vs Long Term Legacy
Make sure you're doing what you're doing for the right reason. So many of you are creating content, or building a personal brand to try and make a quick dollar, and that's OKAY, as long as it's what YOU want. My goal is to build a legacy, which is why I give all my content away for free- it helps to build that trust and personal value that lands me where I want to be. This is a good one guys, hope you take it to heart - there's a LOT of meaning to this rant <3

A Fireside Chat With Samsung NEXT at CES 2017
This fireside chat that I did with Samsung NEXT at CES dove hard into emerging tech, and how to plan 4 to 6 years out to best be able to take advantage of the next big thing. This is something massively important, especially in the advertising and content industry where you want to be able to catch EVERY single eyeball that's relevant,you can to distribute your message, content, or idea. Loved chopping it up about how technology isn't hindering our culture, rather it's exposing who we actually a...

A Rant: Why You Should Take Your Health Seriously As An Entrepreneur
This rant brings out a thought that I learned a little bit later in life - take care of yourself & your physical health. If you're not staying healthy, you're not going to be in peak mental condition either which hinders results. That's why I made the commitment to a full time trainer, to keep me accountable for my own actions & fitness. Hope you guys take this one to heart :)
