Should You Fake It Till You Make It?

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

Today's episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience is an interview I did for the Live Beautifully podcast hosted by Katrina Scott this time last year. We discussed the "Fake It Till You Make It" mentality, where I emphasized the importance of authenticity and conviction. I shared my thoughts on how to protect and nurture personal brands, focusing on the necessity of self-confidence and mental resilience. We also explored the delicate balance between building a brand and focusing on sales, where I provided strategic insights based on my experiences. The episode concluded with a fun and fast-paced "Pass or Smash" segment, where I shared my quick-fire opinions on a range of topics. This episode is packed with practical advice and thought-provoking discussions. Hope you like it!
