About this episode

Today's episode is an interview I did with Nihal Mehta on his podcast the Human Unicorn Podcast. I get real about what actually matters — happiness, humility, and hunger. I talk about why money and fame don’t change you (they expose you), why it’s hard to stay hungry when you’re always fed, and why ego is the fastest way to lose. If you care about staying grounded, grateful, and focused in a world full of noise, this one’s for you.
