1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,080
Tell me about your vision. My vision is to bring self-improvement and self-awareness to the masses

2
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:16,800
where humans understand who they are, why they think they are who they are, and how that affects

3
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:22,720
their everyday life. That really is my ultimate goal. I'm someone who am I'm definitely not

4
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:29,680
supposed to be successful by the standards I would say. I had a quarter life crisis. I wanted to take

5
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:35,440
my life several times and if you said to me what saved your life more than anything I would say

6
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:40,400
self-awareness and understanding why I felt the way I felt and why I didn't want to feel the way

7
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:46,080
I felt and ultimately I believe if more people had that level of self-awareness and they understood

8
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:51,440
who they were at the deepest levels the world would be a much more positive place. So that is

9
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:57,760
my vision in a nutshell to bring self-improvement and self-awareness to the world. Okay that's a

10
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:03,040
great vision to start off with. I love that. Thank you. So how did you begin? What was your

11
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:10,240
starting path? How did you get started? I was actually at a job that I hated. I made a lot of

12
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:15,680
money. I thought that was going to make me super happy. It didn't. It made my bank account happy

13
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:22,480
but I was still very unfulfilled and low self-belief low self-worth all that stuff. I was actually

14
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:30,640
interviewed on a YouTube channel about fitness and mindset and discipline and when we got to the end

15
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,120
of that interview I said to one of my friends who was there I said imagine if you could do that for

16
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:41,600
a living. Imagine if you could help people for a living and he said well there's people out there

17
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:48,000
that do that. So that year it was 2017 I started a podcast called the hyper conscious podcast

18
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:54,000
and hyper conscious means acutely aware and my ultimate goal was to help people understand that

19
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,400
when you change the way you think you change the way you act and then you can ultimately change

20
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:03,920
the way you live. So it started with me being interviewed saying imagine what it would be like

21
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:10,000
if you could do that for a living starting very messily and trying to figure it out and then

22
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:15,840
really starting to see the benefits of having conversations like that for me first long before

23
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:21,760
we ever had any resemblance of an audience the conversations I was having was helping me with my

24
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:26,960
self-awareness and then ultimately I was able to help other people with that. So yeah it started

25
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:32,320
with a chance encounter on a YouTube channel and it inspired me to kind of do my own thing.

26
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,200
Okay and where do you think you're going? What's your goal with your vision? Where do you think

27
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:43,280
you're wanting to end up with this? Ultimately the external goal is to have the most successful

28
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:47,600
podcast in the self-improvement space. That is what we're playing for that's why we do seven

29
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:53,280
episodes a week that's why we have 1730 something episodes. If I do more content than anyone else

30
00:02:53,840 --> 00:03:00,240
I can have more impact than anyone else. That's my that's one of my my deep beliefs and then just on

31
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:05,920
a personal human level I really want to be the best man I can be. I want to be the best husband

32
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:13,840
I can be. I want to be the best I can be not from external judgment not because I deeply care about

33
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,480
what everybody thinks of me. I do more than I should but it's because when I put my head down

34
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:23,360
on the pillow at night I want to say I'm very proud of what I'm doing. I'm proud of what I'm

35
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:29,840
creating and most importantly I'm proud of the man I'm becoming. So externally we want to help the

36
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:35,200
most people possible. Internally I want to make sure I never lose sight of my character who I

37
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:40,400
believe I'm supposed to be and I always want to make sure that I'm living in alignment and making

38
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:46,240
myself proud. If I can go to bed at night and say I did a really good job being me today I think

39
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:53,200
that's a really unique check mark when it comes to success. Yeah absolutely man. Thank you for being
