I sat down with my friend Jon Youshaei ( @youshaei ) to get real about what it takes to build content that actually drives business. We dug into how I face down public speaking fears, deal with critics, and why showing both the grit and the glam is essential. I also shared exactly how I make money—through my holding company of “boring” businesses, my media brand, and investments—plus the systems I use to scale it all. We talked deal-making, financial literacy as a moat, and the responsibility creators have to tell the truth. If you’re serious about building wealth and not just followers, this episode is for you.
