When I first saw Cassey Hoâs YouTube videos, her energy and authenticity instantly stood out. So when she joined the podcast, I knew we were going deeper than just workouts.
In this episode, Cassey shares the raw truth behind online harassment, the YouTube policy change it sparked, and how her sensitivity became a powerful strength in business and life.
Cassey and I talked about:
- đ„ What itâs like to feel everything so deeplyâand how it shapes decision-making as a CEO
- đ How she weathered a massive wave of online hate (yes, it involved bananasâŠ)
- đ§ The intersection of logic and emotionâand why both are needed to build something meaningful
- âš Why vulnerability is not a liability but a secret weapon
- 𧔠The âcloud hoodieâ as the entrepreneur uniform (and why comfort + confidence is a vibe)
Cassey shows us that being emotional isnât weaknessâitâs wisdom. Her story is a reminder that deep feelings and big hearts can drive powerful leadership and creativity.
If youâve ever wondered if youâre too much or questioned your worth, this episode is for you.
Thereâs no one right path to successâand this convo celebrates them all.
Wherever you are in your journey, youâre not alone. Press play and feel seen, heard, and supported. đ
