Hi guys! Today's episode is about two topics that are hitting close to home. 

The Vanderpump Rules cast drama with Tom Sandoval, Ariana Madix and Raquel Leviss. I wanted to play hypothetical and give my advice on the few ways that they can save their reputations, even though it would be a tough one. Plus, my perspective on why this cheating scandal rocked the world in a way that we don't even see with professional musicians, athletes, etc... There is one common denominator with Tom Sandoval and Ned Fulmer from Try Guys. 

Plus, I want to talk about the stray bullets I got on TikTok recently. A few TikTokers, who I have watched and enjoyed, decided to put me and a few others down to make a point about why views are so important on TikTok. I have worked on this app for years and I know that views come in hills and valleys -- and that's okay! But what is not okay is looking at your followers like currency and putting people down to sell a course. Putting down other creators who are open enough to put their ideas out there should never be a means to an end.

As a creator, I am vulnerable enough to put my thoughts and ideas out there -- even when they aren't getting millions of views. And that is okay! We have to give our favorite creators grace to try new things, to grow and to fail in the process -- or else their viral content will be stale in 6 months.
