About this episode

This one hits different. On today's episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience Im sharing the conversation I had with Steven Bartlett back on his podcast Diary of a CEO back in 2022.

We talk about growing up as an immigrant, the emotional roots of my ambition, and how my mom’s mix of love and accountability gave me the gift of unshakable confidence. I open up about my dark side, how I deal with criticism, and the emotional cost of chasing massive dreams.


I hope you all enjoyenjoy❤️
